Is Donald Trump Starting World War III with Iran?
Donald Trump apparently has decided to attack Iran. Mark this date. It is the beginning of the end of the Trump Presidency. Trump has been persuaded that the Iranian air defense is weak and that a US bombing run will eliminate any chance that Iran can build a nuclear device. He has been a victim of lies. He will shortly discover, if these attacks take place, that Iran retains a significant capability to shoot down US aircraft. In fact, I fully expect Iran will capture and put on display several US air force officers in the next week.
If Trump launches this attack, Iran will retaliate against US bases and Israel. Israel, for the first time in 77 years, will suffer devastating losses. If Trump thought the Houthis were a tough customer, he’s going to learn a hard lesson with Iran.
I have a bad feeling about this… though it could just be the Mac and Cheese staging a rebellion.

Wisconsin Guard ’Maverick’ Battalion Mobilizes to Deploy
TOMAH, Wis. – More than 60 Wisconsin National Guard Soldiers with the 732nd Combat Sustainment Support Battalion’s Headquarters and Headquarters Company were mobilized to active duty Nov. 30 during a deployment sendoff ceremony at Tomah High School.
Following pre-mobilization training, the Guardsmen will deploy to the U.S. Central Command area of operations, where they will synchronize and control logistics operations in support of Operation Inherent Resolve.
My guess is that they’re headed to Syria. I may be wrong, though. 🤷🏼♀️

This marks the third death related to the Gaza Pier mission. Just days before Sgt. Quandarius Davon Stanley’s passing, Norfolk’s Marine Hydraulics International (MHI) reported that two shipworkers died aboard the USNS 2nd Lt. John P. Bobo, a Military Sealift Command ship undergoing repairs in connection with the Gaza aid mission, was the site of a tragic accident during maintenance. The workers’ identities have not been released. The vessel had previously been dispatched to support the pier mission but was diverted to the shipyard after its engine room caught fire en route to Gaza in April.
