>Iran struck two tankers moving under US Navy escort in Hormuz — IRGC claims a convoy hit, four others turned back; UKMTO belatedly admitted a July 31 strike with crew abandoning ship. CENTCOM's fact-check insisting Hormuz "remains open" ran head-first into Iran's footage of burning tankers. In a related story Exxon's CEO says available refining capacity has never been this low relative to demand.

The Pentagon tried using "kill counts" as a measure of victory in Vietnam. It didn't work then, and trying to say "don't believe your lying eyes" won't work now.

>CSIS puts US Patriot stocks down ~65% since February to under a thousand while Lockheed's up-to-$58.6B rebuild answers "in years, not days".

This is a feature not a bug. Watch The Pentagon put out a requirement for a new interceptor missile that can be made in larger numbers.

>"If we do not begin to hate, and demean everyone from mentally retarded third-world shithole immigrants to Muslims, to even Jews, America will be done. At this point, we need to do whatever it takes to make sure when we get rid of the surveillance, it cannot come back, and if it is Jewish/Israeli, that will mean America is going to have to become rabidly antisemitic, and seek to purge Jews from every position of power and influence in the nation. Having seen the surveillance, and what is coming for all Americans soon, I can assure you the choice between espousing hate and being beamed is no contest. Only losers will reject hate, and fail to protect their own in the world that is coming. What is coming is a world of wolves, and if you are not a wolf, you will not survive here.”

Well said. The recent merging of the Israeli and American military supply chains is an attempt to be a bulwark against this realization. If their current "success" against Iran is any indication then they've already lost. Netanyahu knew Israel's blank check would bounce one day and tried speedrunning Greater Israel while he could. All the world has to show for this is higher energy prices and a realization of who's really in charge of The Greatest Military In The World™.
