New satellite images from several key military bases in the Arabian Peninsula suggest that Iran is seeking to degrade air defenses by destroying US-made radars that detect incoming missiles and drones.

The radar system for an American THAAD missile battery in Jordan was struck and apparently destroyed in the first days of the US-Israeli strikes on Iran, a satellite image taken on Monday shows.

Buildings housing similar radar systems were also hit at two locations in the United Arab Emirates, CNN analysis shows, although it is unclear if the equipment was damaged.


WAPO: “.. Since the war began Saturday, Russia has passed Iran the locations of U.S. military assets, including warships and aircraft, said the three officials, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because of the matter’s sensitivity.”

………………..

Incompetence? Purposeful incompetence? It doesn’t help that Trump is likely a Russian asset with the job of destroying the USA from within. Stealing classified documents. Speaking to Putin over the phone on a regular basis. Destroying the American economy. Dividing Americans against one another. Etc.

Kind of like a reverse Ukraine. This, high oil prices, flailing economy, Epstein, the grifting, and general incompetence may finally end Trump's inexplicable lustre, only 3 more years!

You don’t need a democracy if you don’t have people.

So Russia is helping Iran target American troops and today Trump rewards Putin by lifting sanctions on Russian oil.

Just the normal list of stuff, wars, gas prices, bad jobs report (Biden's fault still, somehow), etc.

Worst President in history, not even close.

Everything he has done has been from Hitler's playbook, just a modernized version of it. This should surprise nobody.

Lindsey Graham has his head so far up Trump’s ass he can taste his breakfast. The MAGA cult must have some serious dirt on him for him to be such a spineless bootlicker. Didn’t he used to be somewhat sane before Trump? I remember he used to be good friends with Biden at one point.

Even dip#### Rubio was somewhat sane before joining the MAGA human centipede. He was a supporter of Ukraine and promoted a system to have a path for long term undocumented people to get citizenship. Granted, it wasn't an easy path (they would have to pay back taxes), but it was something at least.

I really don't think Graham knows squat. He's just a little yippy dog that wants to look big.

In the post, Omar wrote, "Iraq was attacked by the US during Ramadan and it is sickening to know that the US is again going to attack Iran during Ramadan. The US apparently loves to strike Muslim countries during Ramadan and I am convinced it isn't what these countries have done to violate international law but about who they worship."

Donald Trump responds in capitals to Iran's 'devastating' threat

Iran tells US it will launch 'most devastating offensive operation' in history

Omar's office has not issued a follow-up statement to clarify her remarks in the post despite immense backlash, and it remains unclear what U.S. strikes against Iraq she is referring to. However, the two major U.S. military operations in Iraq did not occur during Ramadan.

Yes. He literally said in the not-so-distant past that he questioned anyone who could say a bad word about Joe Biden.

He also said that if they nominated Trump, they'd destroy their party and they'd deserve it.
