🚨🇺🇸🇮🇷 NEW: Trump’s “wait until you see what we do to Iran” is the mother of all bombs… a fireworks show reportedly meant to be the final bookend on this war
CNN reports the new packages target “a lot of energy infrastructure” plus nuclear sites including Pickaxe, with the 21,600-pound MOAB written in.
One source said the strikes would come “prior to US retrograde,” meaning hit, declare victory, pull out.
The problem is physics. The MOAB is an air-blast weapon that flattens nine city blocks on the surface, and the officials pushing back say it was built for psychological operations, “definitely not designed as a deep penetration warhead.”
Pickaxe is under layers of GRANITE.
One planner called it “a massive information operation type weapon that is great for huge area clearance but not much else.”
A fourth source called the options a “fireworks show” to give Trump an off-ramp, and another said the president “is almost compelled to do something.”
Without the ammunition to reach what matters, “you have to look at psychological effects.”
Earlier this week Trump told rallies to “wait until you see what we do to Iran.”
This is what: the biggest bang available, aimed at a mountain it can’t crack, timed to look like an ending.
The scary part, and the sad part, is that it completely TRACKS with how this war has been conducted from day one.
At this point, though, I think most people would agree that if letting Trump have his spectacle and take a curtain call is what it costs to end this conflict, it’s a price worth paying.
