They look like drowning victims. GSC are flailing around like they know the doom loop is about to escalate. This can’t be about an Iran-US “deal” anymore. GSC themselves must boot US bases out of the region.
The Gulf nations / kingdoms are realizing that America cannot protect them. The entire region will be reshaped. U.S. assets and bases will never return to the Persian Gulf with any significant strength. The U.S. military has been forced to retreat from the region. https://t.co/DnPy1ZHTRZ

Elsewhere forward bases crumble. Bulgaria KICKS OUT U.S. Refueling Tankers Two U.S. KC-135 tankers deployed to support American military operations in the Middle East have LEFT Bulgaria’s Bezmer Air Base EARLY, despite authorization to remain until October 1.
In a month the weather will cool a bit. But just a reminder of what the US faces with the added factor of no forward bases.

Total flailing on the Treasury bond sale front. Big Brain Trump confuses bonds with bombs and will call in the military. What does that look like? “Grandpa, they say this tornado is gonna be a bad one!” “Don’t worry sweetie, I can just shoot it with this here gun.”
$12 trillion in debt rollover and new issuance over next year.
Bond sale at gunpoint. Girl Scouts never resorted to selling cookies at the threat of bodily harm.

We are clearly witnessing the Planned Implosion of the USA and the West in general.
Too bad the Israelis have betrayed themselves to the world at large as the genocidal monsters we always knew them to be. If they do rise to be our new global rulers, it won’t last very long as they have ZERO allies left besides Zion Don the Tangerine Nightmare. And it is, indeed, the People that ultimately decide, not bloated quislings.
“This can’t be about an Iran-US “deal” anymore.”
So, what’s it about?
It’s about control of oil and money flow. …Cut off oil flow and the money stops. Cut off the money and the trade with Iran stops… “It is about cutting off money laundering to London, to BRICS and to oil to BRICS, in order to shatter BRICS.” https://lamecherry.substack.com/p/phase-3
