raslim20:
Things are about to get brutal in the Middle East.

US forces bombed six family homes on Qeshm Island.

4 fathers dead. 2 mothers dead. A 3 year old child killed.

2 more children are fighting for their lives as we speak.

IRGC retaliated hard though.

7 US officers and 2 maintenance personnel dead at Muwaffaq Salti Base in Jordan.

Trump is furious.

NBC just released a statement.

Trump's ally's words: The president is enraged. He never thought the Iranians would make it this difficult for us. Dan Caine is panicking over the munitions stockpiles now. He’s warning about a string of strategic defeats coming if this keeps dragging. Two hours ago, Trump exploded in a meeting with his top national security people.
He’s losing his mind about the limited military options against Iran.
He’s now pushing Hegseth and his troops to strike harder in the next 48 hours.
IRGC is getting ready to dismantle several Gulf countries as we speak.
The whole Middle East is in serious danger
In addition to the civilian casualties, Four IRGC officers were also lost in the Saudi-US bombing in Iraq, so naturally, Iran executed the retaliation measures they had earlier announced.

Interestingly, Jordanian citizens have been generously furnishing the IRGC with very useful information of US forces movements and locations in the country.

Now even with Centcom already denying the Irgc's statement on the downed F-35s, the mood and series of events in the white house have once again made Iran's information credibility through this war, even stronger.

Quite literally, Iran is currently beating the sh*t out of the United States and the loudmouth is too confused to know what next to do😂.

🌎 For the first time since the start of the war, Iran’s IRGC announces the complete destruction of 3 F-35 fighter jets and significant damage to 3 others at the Muwaffaq Salti Air Base in Jordan, through multiple ballistic missiles targeting the deployment ramp and maintenance hangar this morning, per Tasnim. Iran had not previously announced the destruction of an F-35.

The IRGC adds several US officers and maintenance personnel were also killed at the base.

The strike comes in response to a US strike on 2 residential homes on Qeshm Island earlier this morning, killing a father, mother, and their 2-year-old child, and injuring 2 other children.

LordAdam16:
more on the saudi defense minister's visit

he only met vance in person
then delivered a message from MbS to pedolf
he met no one else, not rubio, hegseth, caine, or ratcliffe

he left within hours of his trip

-Lord
Everyone else is currently sweating out the hours in the situation room.

There is no clear pathway as to how they should proceed with the war at this point.

As we speak, Tehran and her tentacles are spreading missiles and drones, so the administration has bigger concerns than the musings of one of their puppets grin.

🌎 The atmosphere in the white house within the last 24 hours has been "chaotic". Multiple sources say Trump threw around profanities over his frustration with the course of the Iran war.

A U.S official adds "after all this time, there is no unity" inside the administration, which is "facing a strategic defeat without clear policy guidance or a decision about where this is going."

An ally close to Trump adds the president is "exasperated" and there was "not a real strategy for how long or what they should do."

🌎 In response to U.S. military airstrikes against civilian and military targets in Iran, particularly the ballistic missile bases in Tabriz and Yazd, the IRGC Aerospace Force launched multiple ballistic missiles at U.S. military bases in several Persian Gulf countries, including Muwaffaq Salti Air Base in Jordan.

Captured images and videos show ballistic missile launches from Tabriz, Yazd, and Khomein—from the same bases bombed by the United States Air Force last night.

It appears that it took the IRGC less than a couple of hours to restore the bases to operational status.
