SATISH SHARMA - not just Rotigraphy.: how Iran’s economy has greater capacity and endurance than the Trump administration and its proxies state.

The latest leak from US military and intelligence institutions rebuts the Fox News crowd and shows an American military and intelligence establishment desperate to prevent an American return to war against Iran.

In the last two weeks, we’ve seen leaks to NY Times, CNN, NBC News and now WaPo juxtaposing US munitions inventories, especially air defense missiles, against Iranian inventories, and the degree of damage done to the US military by Iran. 

Now, this report, which includes strengthening the understanding of Iran’s missile and drone dominance, explains how Iran’s economy has greater capacity and endurance than the Trump administration and its proxies state. Most of us understand what WaPo doesn’t say: the US economy, American public, and the US political system don’t share Iran’s capacity or endurance.

I have never seen such a deliberate and coordinated effort by CIA, Pentagon and others to keep the US out of war in defiance of their political bosses. 

Bravo Zulu to those who are doing these leaks and their commanders who are directing them to do so.

Huge story from WaPo (gift link) on Iran’s resilience to US blockade:
- 3-4 months before “severe” pain hits
- Iran could hold out much longer 
- “radical” nature of new regime means higher pain tolerance vs. old regime
- Iran likely to ship oil overland in smaller amounts
