A new report suggests that the U.S.’s war on Iran could last several months, or even longer, despite Trump administration officials suggesting it will last only a few days or weeks. This would be a serious mistake.
According to Politico, U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) officials at the agency’s headquarters in Tampa, Florida, have requested more intelligence officers from the Pentagon. CENTCOM says the ask is based on the belief that support for the war on Iran will be needed for “at least 100 days” and likely “through September,” the publication wrote.
A report by the US outlet Politico on Wednesday revealed that US Central Command has asked the Pentagon to deploy additional military intelligence officers to its headquarters in Tampa, Florida.
The reinforcements would support operations against Iran for at least 100 days and potentially until September.
This is a disaster for the deaths alone that we can expect to see if this is what they are planning. This will cost Republicans the midterms. President Trump needs to find an exit, but he probably won’t. And where is the money coming from for this?
It also suggests this war was more impulsive and unplanned than we have been told.
We have a war within our borders, and we need President Trump to focus on this country. This is one promise he should not break. He promised to be the president of peace. We didn’t want another George W.
However, the goals of destroying the Iranian navy and ballistic missiles are moving swiftly. The US has destroyed over 30 Iranian ships. We can keep the faith a little bit longer.
🚨 BREAKING: US CENTCOM Commander Brad Cooper confirms the US has now sunk 30+ Iranian ships, including a drone ship the size of a WWII aircraft carrier
That means we’ve taken out 13 MORE ships in the last 24 hours.
America is COOKING the Iranian Navy

Iran continues to retaliate; in the last several hours,
- IRGC attacks on Tel Aviv
- direct missile strike by Iran on an oil facility and a US airbase in Bahrain…both the naval base and the oil facilities of BAPCO (Bahrain Oil Company) were damaged
- IRGC is currently attacking American facilities and bases in the UAE using drones and missiles
- A missile strike was carried out on a US base near Abu Dhabi Airport
- Akrotiri Air Base of the Royal Air Force of Cyprus in Limassol was subjected to a bombardment during the night using a Shahed drone, resulting in damage
- Drones of unknown origin attacked areas around the US Embassy in Riyadh
Would we want a military not [preparing for all contingencies? Even if the bombs stop dropping in a few weeks, the work for military intelligence will be huge for months. Is it fair to project elections in November based on paid demonstrators in the streets?
