Operation Epic Fury Day 10
From Resurrection Life of Jesus Church
Oil markets
This war may represent the largest oil supply loss in history. In Southern California the price is hitting over $8 a gallon. Oil futures are over $100 a barrel for the Monday open. Britain is down to two days of natural gas storage. Tankers on the sea are moving toward whoever is bidding the highest prices.
Many Asian countries increased their reserves prior to the war. Oil infrastructure is coming under increased attacks after Israel bombed Iran’s oil infrastructure. Iran hit Bahrain’s oil refinery and also hit the refinery in Haifa Israel.
It is reported that Trump is unhappy with Israel’s move. Real estate prices in the Gulf region are taking a big hit as well. After a hit on one of Iran’s water desalination plants they retaliated. Food shortages are looming large for the Gulf states. Iran is letting traffic from China through the straights going and coming to their country.
Russia appears to be sitting back looking at long term gains. China’s military is in turmoil as its President Xi Jinping has almost completely purged the PLA’s leadership over the last two years.
The US and Israel continue to pound Iran mercilessly and Iran is retaliating by hitting Israel’s cities and industrial sites as well as select sites in the Gulf countries. One week into the US-Israel war on Iran, more than 1,300 Iranians have been killed, with children accounting for 30% of the dead.
Some of these videos are here and here and here and here. It is reported that Eastern Kurdistan in Northern Iraq has been struck by Iranian missiles and drones. The facility was a US ammunition depot.
Iran’s attacks on its neighbors are a reminder that the United States cannot protect them. These bases were always very vulnerable. There is no news on the Arab Leagues emergency meeting on Sunday.
Iran’s new leader is reported to be more hard-line that the previous leader. This is inline with US intelligence estimates. All US intelligence agencies previously estimated that regime change would be unlikely after a war.
The Push
The US leadership is steeped in as much hatred as Iran’s leadership. Asked if the US attacked a desalination plant in Iran, President Trump says Iranians are “among the most evil people ever on earth.”
“They are among the most evil people ever on earth, they cut babies’ heads off, they chop women in half, what they did, take a look at October 7th… if they’re complaining about a desalination plant, we complain about the fact that they shouldn’t be chopping babies’ heads off, okay?
Pete Hegseth said “The only ones who need to be worried right now are Iranians who think they’re going to live,”. This lays bare the core mentality of the Zionist-American war bloc and the core of the Trump administration.
Commenting on multiple US and Isaeli airstrike on schools in Iran, the head of the Conservative Political Action Conference said that Iranian Schoolgirls Are Better Dead Than “in a Burqa”. Lindsey Graham has described the conflict in the Middle East as “a good investment”.
In the streets of Iran they chant “death to America”. In the media we do the same thing to Iran. It is a sad day when Obama and Biden make sense.
The Boy Who Cried Wolf
Netanyahu has been saying Iran is close to having nuclear weapons for 30 years. Meanwhile it is reported Israel has some nuclear 500 warheads. No reporting, no inspections, and there is no stopping them.
Conclusion
This may last years. If Trump was smart he would declare victory and leave. That does not appear to be an option for him right now.
1 Oh that my head were waters, and mine eyes a fountain of tears, that I might weep day and night for the slain of the daughter of my people!
2 Oh that I had in the wilderness a lodging place of wayfaring men; that I might leave my people, and go from them! for they be all adulterers, an assembly of treacherous men.
3 And they bend their tongues like their bow for lies: but they are not valiant for the truth upon the earth; for they proceed from evil to evil, and they know not me, saith the Lord.
4 Take ye heed every one of his neighbour, and trust ye not in any brother: for every brother will utterly supplant, and every neighbour will walk with slanders.
5 And they will deceive every one his neighbour, and will not speak the truth: they have taught their tongue to speak lies, and weary themselves to commit iniquity.
6 Thine habitation is in the midst of deceit; through deceit they refuse to know me, saith the Lord.
7 Therefore thus saith the Lord of hosts, Behold, I will melt them, and try them; for how shall I do for the daughter of my people?
8 Their tongue is as an arrow shot out; it speaketh deceit: one speaketh peaceably to his neighbour with his mouth, but in heart he layeth his wait.
9 Shall I not visit them for these things? saith the Lord: shall not my soul be avenged on such a nation as this?
Jeremiah 9:1-9
