I hope the Israelis have provided real intel for some sort of government from the people - than can be tolerable to most for just awhile.

Reportedly, Khamenei has laid out a succession plan, after all, he's about 86.

The one group that will not have a say, will be the Iranian people. "Prince Reza" has lived in the US for 45 years, except for the time he spent sucking up to Israel. I can't imagine anyone in Iran, who remembers the brutal, repressive, rule of his father, could want that bunch back. But then, the Iranian people were not consulted in 56 either.

God and Savior Trump promises the bombing will continue for a week, or as long as necessary. Outside of Japan, in 45, I am not aware of any government surrendering to a bombing campaign. The other model we have, is Libya, where the EU, with US help, mounted a bombing campaign, which upset things enough for the factional poisons to break out in the country, which crippled oil production, for years.

What irks me, I was running errands yesterday, but didn't top up the gas tank. Paid about 14 cent more per gallon today, due to my sloth. My big oil positions were up thousands, Friday, when helps offset that, but still, I paid $1.40 extra to top up the car today.
