Do you think The Friend of Epstein is au fait with Roman history?

The death was confirmed by CWO Marzan's family yesterday. I'm in No Cal and it was on our news. By all accounts a lovely man who will be sorely missed. Gov Newsom issued a statement and flag currently at half staff at our State Capitol.

U.K. off the Christmas card list

He’s madder than usual today it seems!

The war is won now

His hand was badly bruised again, who knows what they put in him.

So is the war over? Or, as his appalling Truth Social, are they continuing until Iran is flattened?

Are all his lackeys on board with this, truly on board - thinking it’s a great idea - or can’t they stop him?

I was reminded of a bunch of 6th formers having a go and a giggle at running the country in 2020 here - I am reminded now of Year 6s giving it a go in the US - not very nice Year 6s at that - maybe like Jack types in Lord of the Flies though he’d have been a year 7 I think.

Those would be the carriers we now need to move for our own defence because British bases are being attacked because he started a war of choice?

But I guess if something isn't happening to Donald, it isn't happening.

Remember that Farage is whispering in his ear

Trump has dementia and Epstein,.who he knew and met with on multiple occasions times 1000, was a very sick paedophile.

These are facts.

Trump is in the derangement stage of dementia. He's dangerous.

Farage knows Trump is ill. Dangerously so.

Yet Farage seeks to make the most from it.

Leech, as well as Badenoch

Despicable people.

This reads like Trump. It’s the petty-minded spite that gives him away. The previous one posted on the thread had the same feel of more cogent staffers reaching for his style.

He’s absolutely, positively fucking lost it. It’s giving old man yells at cars.
I hope to fuck he doesn’t actually have the nuclear codes because I’m genuinely frightened as to what we might wake up to.

Kuwait airport has been bombed again.

Re the UK Carriers.

The shocking thing to me about Trump saying the UK is thinking about sending TWO carriers, is that the UK can't send 2 carriers. We do not have enough escort ships, enough planes, or even enough sailors to send 2.

It should be a small point, but this is POTUS, the US Commander in Chief, brain the size of a planet, the sharpest mind in the West, surrounded by military experts and advisors.

It would take as long for an advisor to tell Trump this as it has taken me to write this post, And it appears he does not know.

“It should be a small point, but this is POTUS, the US Commander in Chief, brain the size of a planet, the sharpest mind in the West, surrounded by military experts and advisors.“

Except he’s so incapable he would be out of his depth in a puddle. And it happens he has pissed himself into said puddle.

I genuinely don’t think he knows he’s not on a reality TV show. I mean, I genuinely don’t think he knows where he is 90% of the time he’s not on a golf course.

What an asshole.

CNN -

"The US embassy in Oslo sustained minor damage after it was hit by an explosion early on Sunday, Reuters reported, citing Norwegian police speaking to local media. No injuries were reported.

Police spokesperson Mikael Dellemyr told public broadcaster NRK that the blast occurred at the entry of the consular section of the embassy, adding that a search for suspects is underway, Reuters reported.

Eyewitnesses told local media that they heard a loud explosion near the embassy complex in western Oslo at around 1 a.m. local time, the news agency also reported.

It is not immediately known who was responsible for the attack. CNN has reached out to the embassy and the State Department for comment."

I can imagine all the little brain men (well, both of them), scurrying about in Trumps noggin as they pull the data blocks from his Trumipedia vaults they think he needs for this and slot them into his logic processor.

INPUTS:

Norway, Bomb, US Consulate, Iran, Peace Prize. Scandinavia

OUTPUTS :

Great replacement theory, insult Norway, "This would not have happened if I got Peace Prize". invade Iceland Greenland.

"'I don't think there will be anyone left' to surrender, Trump says
Speaking to reporters on board Air Force One on Saturday, Donald Trump said he isn't interested in negotiating with Iran.
The US president suggested the war would only end once Tehran had no functioning military or remaining leadership in power.
He said the bombing campaign could make negotiations irrelevant if all potential leaders are killed and the military is destroyed.
"At some point, I don't think there will be anybody left maybe to say 'We surrender,'" Trump said. "

Is this what they call "mission creep" ?

if all potential leaders are killed

It'll be like the biblical slaughter of all first borns, and look what happened even then!
Trump as King Herod. 🤔

My source in Kuwait is now very concerned about what defines 'provocation'.

Looks like it could be troops on the ground in Iran next....Barron signed up yet?

Special forces ‘could seize Iran’s nuclear stockpile’
The United States and Israel are considering sending special forces into Iran to seize its nuclear stockpile, it has been reported.
According to Axios, the two nations discussed securing Iran’s stockpile of highly enriched uranium at a later stage of the war.
Axios cited four sources with knowledge of the discussions. Reuters said it could not immediately verify the report.

Real soldiers ? Or human brain cells controlling robots ?

Someone posted this blunt and depressing take on another thread:

This is genuinely extraordinary: https://x.com/MicloutT/status/2029441221374992857/video/1 Speaking is General Sir Richard Shirreff, NATO's former Deputy Supreme Allied Commander Europe.

He says that the UK "should not, in any way, shape or form be involved with the Americans because they are being led by a couple of gung-ho nutters like Trump and Hegseth without a proper strategy and without serious thought about what the end state for this war is."

He goes on: "Yet again we have an American president who has gone to war, a war of choice, a war of hubris frankly, without ANY [the emphasis is his] clear idea of how the war ends and without any clear strategy." He predicts that "this thing is going to go south very, very quickly."

He highlights in particular just how foolish it was to kill Ayatollah Khamenei: "The idea of assassinating the Ayatollah Khamenei who was not just Iran's head of state but he was the religious symbol for Shiites worldwide. Assassinating him during the month of Ramadan is about as subtle as murdering the Pope on the steps of St Peter's in Holy Week. It will inflame the Shiite world and what you're doing by doing that is probably pushing large numbers of Iranians who might have been reconcilable, who might have thought about rising up, back into the fold of the irreconcilable."

The 2007 cohort are in the military now

It's not impossible that history will judge HMS Dragons "unfortunate" delay as being a blessing in disguise.

It never does any hard to project a slightly shambolic display around defence. I am old enough to remember when the UK was totally unable to conduct a war over 8,000 paces let along 8,000 miles and had to surrender the Falklands to a slow hand clap from the rest of the big boys in the world.

Well that's what Argentine and US intelligence concluded. And that was in the time when "US Intelligence" wasn't an oxymoron.
