61 days and counting

Good Wednesday morning beloved sentients. Today the US constitutional limit for the President to maintain a war without governmental approval has passed. As the world is painfully aware, however, the US is not a contitutional Republic anymore. In fact it is nothing more than a parasitic host for the Zionist Regime which is systematically bleeding it out.
So, no doubt, as I said in yesterday’s post, the “elected” representatives both Congress and Senate will rubber stamp approval for Trumpanyahu to maintain this war on the totally innocent nation of Iran [which just happens to exist on land that Israel covets] indefinitely…or until such time until the world becomes so fed up it refuses to tolerate the antics of the orangutan any more.
RT has provided a very good summation of the past 60 days of this war that I have recorded on posts for each and every day so far:
Iran War – 60 days
https://www.rt.com/news/639259-iran-war-60-days/
Folks the main thing to keep in mind is that USrael is defenseless against the hypersonic missiles that Iran [and Russia/China] have. I sometimes wonder whether Trump is keeping this war going just so he can capture one of the missiles and reverse engineer it. I know that Iran has admitted to reverse-engineering some of the weaponry they’ve captured.

Here’s an interesting headline. Iran is threatening “practical action’ if the USrael blockade continues. For an example of such “practical action” please read the last report copied to this post from “What Does it Mean” where CIA analyst Larry Johnson suggests a very ingenious method that Iran could use to break the blockade….
Here’s a typical example of Trumpanyahu’s negotiation skill from an interview he conducted today in the “Oval Office” which he has single-handedly degraded to the status of barnyard brawl.:
“The blockade is somewhat more effective than the bombing. They are choking like a stuffed pig,” Trump said of Iran. “And it is going to be worse for them. They can’t have a nuclear weapon.”

Greencrow continues: Do you think the somnolent American public will wake up when they can no longer order “wings” from “Skip the Dishes”?
GOP senators put Trump on notice as Iran war hits critical deadline
The entire food delivery and ride share industry will shut down when gas hits $6 or $7 per gallon. This will cause restaurants to go out of business. Total economic collapse is on the table if Trump doesn’t make a deal.
Trumpanyahu says “The blockade is genius” even though it’s going to cause a worldwide depression that will make the 30’s depression look like a picnic.
Greencrow continues: Daily blatherings in the terminally degraded White House Oval Office…is all that Trump can do now that his foolish war–done on orders from Netanyahu–is stalemated and will result in a world wide depression. Below is a very good compendium 0f events over the past 48 hours from Sorcha Faal.
I particularly like the suggestion regarding sending an armada of Iranian oil ships out to the Strait of Hormuz to overwhelm the American naval fleet. I’d love to see that happen actually.

Trump Issues “NO MORE MR. NICE GUY!” Threat After Iran War Shatters Petrodollar System
By: Sorcha Faal, and as reported to her Western Subscribers
A global turning point new Security Council (SC) report circulating in the Kremlin today first noting President Donald Trump posted an AI-generated photo of himself holding a military assault rifle emblazoned with the threat: “Iran can’t get their act together…They don’t know how to sign a nonnuclear deal…They better get smart soon!…NO MORE MR. NICE GUY!”, says this threat was joined by the Wall Street Journal revealing that President Trump has opted for extended economic warfare against Iran by blockading the Strait of Hormuz instead of more bombing strikes, and they noted: “The president prefers decisive victories, but none of the available options provides him with a swift exit from the conflict”.
As President Trump seeks a swift exit from the failed war he let Israel drag him into, this report notes, the Reuters News Service just revealed: “US intelligence agencies are studying how Iran would respond if President Donald Trump were to declare a unilateral victory in the two-month-old war…The intelligence community is analyzing the question along with others at the request of senior administration officials…The goal is to understand the implications of Trump potentially pulling back from a conflict that some officials and advisers worry could contribute to deep Republican losses at the midterm elections later this year”—a revelation joined with the news: “Democratic Party lawmakers are exploring a possible lawsuit against President Donald Trump if he continues the Iran military operation after May 1 without congressional approval…Under the 1973 War Powers Resolution, Trump officially notified Congress on March 2 of the start of military action, this gave him 60 days, until May 1, to operate without legislative approval”.
Along with Iran now selling its oil at twice the contracted price, this report continues, world-renowned retired CIA analyst Larry Johnson most factually observed about the economic war President Trump is waging on Iran: “Since the start of the conflict, at least 52 ghost fleet tankers laden with Iranian oil have left the Persian Gulf…Here is the problem the US faces in trying to impose a blockade: If the US stops an Iranian vessel and takes control of it, then the US Navy must assign one ship to accompany it to a location the US controls…The US does not have enough US Navy ships to carry out such a mission on a broad scale...
On 14 September 1960, this report details, the intergovernmental Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) was founded comprised of the leading oil-producing nations that accounted for nearly 40% percent of global oil production in 2025—and OPEC members in the Persian Gulf agreed to sell their oil only in American dollars so the United States could continue to fund its beyond staggering national debt, which is known as the Petrodollar System.
The third largest oil producing member of OPEC, this report notes, is the United Arab Emirates, about whom was warningly revealed last week: “The UAE has told US Treasury officials that if dollar liquidity tightens enough due to the Hormuz war and halted oil export revenues, it will shift oil transactions to Chinese yuan”—a warning revelation followed by the shocking news yesterday: ”The United Arab Emirates has announced its decision to quit OPEC and OPEC+ on May 1 to focus on national interests, dealing a heavy blow to the oil-exporting groups at a time when the US-Israel war on Iran has caused a historic energy shock and rattled the global economy”.
Immediately after the United Arab Emirates quit OPEC yesterday, this report continues, the New York Times warned: “The advent of an unbound Emirates has implications for markets, economies and conflicts around the world…With more than $2 trillion in sovereign wealth, the tiny country has cultivated influence far beyond its borders”—the UAE has been able to amass its wealth because it has the lowest oil production cost of all OPEC members, and now unleashed from OPEC quotas it can sell its oil in Chinese yuan to shatter the Petrodollar System—all of which is why Iran allowed the United Arab Emirates to become the first nation to sail a LNG tanker through Strait of Hormuz since the start of war yesterday.
Quickly following the United Arab Emirates quitting OPEC yesterday, this report details, American gasoline prices hit their highest level since the war began, and it was also revealed today: “Oil prices are extending their gains early on Wednesday, with Brent jumping to over $114 and WTI exceeding $103 per barrel, as oil market participants weigh the stalled U.S.-Iran negotiations and the possibility of an extended U.S. blockade outside the Strait of Hormuz”.
As for what the American peoples are facing because of the foolish war President Trump started against Iran, this report notes, CIO Dan Pickering at Pickering Energy Partners warned all of them: “There’s a day of reckoning coming…When the summer driving season begins there will be another gas price shock that hits people in the face…It will be painful because I can tell you that the stock market’s ignoring this”—a warning joined by global energy experts most gravely observing: “The oil supply shock will scar the world for years…The prolonged closure of the Strait of Hormuz has shut in over 10 million b/d of oil, triggering the largest supply shock in history…Even if the Strait reopens, oil production recovery will take months to years, with damaged wells, complex restarts, and export flows slow to normalize…With most spare capacity trapped in the Gulf and no global substitute, hundreds of millions of barrels are already lost, ensuring lasting impacts on prices and the global economy”.
The “day of reckoning” coming for the American peoples because of the disastrous Iran war, this report concludes, came for the German peoples last week when their national airline Lufthansa axed 20,000 flights because it is running out of jet fuel—the largest jet fuel producer in Europe is the massive PCK Schwedt Refinery in Germany, but all of whose oil needed to make jet fuel was cut off today by Russia—a cut off caused by the Ukrainian Nazi Regime taking advantage of the global energy crisis by attacking the oil storage tanks supplying Europe with the Kazakh oil that flows through the Russian Druzhba Pipeline, which caused top Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov to declare: “The Kiev regime has once again struck oil storage facilities, where the oil was intended for export operations, that is, for fulfilling export contract obligations” and warn: “The global energy community is desperately struggling with the consequences of oil shortages on international markets, which is being spurred on by such criminal actions by the Kiev regime”

Greencrow concludes: Can you imagine what it must be like to be an ordinary middle class American nowadays? Can you imagine the embarrassment and humiliation they must feel to be defenseless against the actions of their leader? To be part of such a catastrophic and never-ending debacle inflicted on the entire world? Can you imagine how horrible it must be to travel to any foreign destination and have to admit you’re an American?
Can you imagine how the FIFA games are going to go down–with nobody coming to the US to watch them?
Trump did all that.
Stay tuned.
