Iran doesn't need to sink a carrier, it needs an admiral to think it might... The missiles fired at the Delbert D. Black and John Paul Jones missed. Every attempt this war has missed. That has not stopped the Journal from reporting that Washington now suspects China or Russia is feeding Iran the coordinates, because retired Vice Adm. John Miller says Iranian radar can no longer find a ship in the Arabian Sea on its own. The Financial Times has documented Russian engineers helping build a ramjet designed for exactly this target. Deterrence never required a hit. It required DOUBT. A carrier that has to stay farther out, move more often and burn interceptors on every approach is a carrier doing less work, and 19 warships are out there with Patriot stocks at 36%. Every miss still moves the fleet back, and Tehran gets that for the price of a missile. Source: The Wall Street Journal, Financial Times / Writer: Daniel

BREAKING: Iran says it struck the US nuclear aircraft carrier USS George Washington (CVN-73) on Sept. 5 at a range of 500 kilometers, and that after the attack not a single US warship remained in the Persian Gulf, down from around 30, with all US vessels now holding at least 400 kilometers off the Iranian coast, per IRGC spokesperson. Iran attributes the pullback to Iran's new missiles, saying Iranian forces can strike beyond 400 kilometers. The Qasem Basir medium-range anti-ship ballistic missile used against the carrier on Sept. 5 has a range of about 1,200 kilometers.

Iran's new rule is twenty targets for every three America hits, and Washington answered today's tanker strikes with silence

Iran's new rule is twenty targets for every three America hits, and Washington answered today's tanker strikes with silence Twenty for three. That's the ratio the IRGC announced this week, and the spokesman spelled it out without hedging: "we will respond forcefully by attacking 20 targets" The first test came fast. Iran hit two more tankers today, and the United States, which spent something like 120 Patriots stopping 40 missiles over Jordan the night before, did nothing. Photos show helicopters leaving that base on flatbed trucks because they can no longer fly. Larry Johnson reads the silence as the whole strategy in miniature. Washington can't replace what it fires, because China holds the magnets the missiles are built with, and the Pacific and European commands are demanding their share back. Trump's own words today, that he isn't looking for negotiations, sound to Larry like a man preparing his base for the exit: "walk away is his only option"
