A Message from COL. Doug Macgregor: “All For What”
Judge Napolitano - Judging Freedom
Jun 1, 2026
A war “you didn’t vote for” and a supply chain that snaps at Hormuz. COL. Douglas Macgregor ties fuel, fertilizer, food prices, and foreign influence into one blunt thesis.
Gas up. Grocery bill up. Then ask the question nobody in Washington wants on camera: “Who is governing this country and for whom?” Hear the argument and decide for yourself.

I looked for the preview button and didn't see one so I proceeded to send and see what happens. It appears that the screen is WYSIWYG and eliminates the need for going back and forth between screens. Nice.

Retired four-star Gen. Jack Keane said enough with the diplomatic charade — Iran is stalling for time and the best solution is to resume full-scale war. The chairman of the Institute for the Study of War and former Army vice chief of staff on Friday blasted eight weeks of fruitless talks as a waste while the mullahs play games. “We have to accept the reality that’s just not going to happen,” Keane said on Fox News. “They have one motive: Stretch out negotiations as much as possible, get as close to the political situation in terms of midterm elections

Retired four-star Gen. Jack Keane said enough with the diplomatic charade — Iran is stalling for time and the best solution is to resume full-scale war. The chairman of the Institute for the Study of War and former Army vice chief of staff....
Jack Keane is a charade. Trump denies there is any war in Iran, much less a full-scale war. An admission of a war would admit violation of the reporting requirements of the War Powers Act.
If Trump decides to resume unwar with Iran, what would you propose should be done besides drop bombs and move sand around? Or do you propose to drop bombs on granite mountains?
If you propose opening the strait, just why do you think they have not attempted to do it? The strait was formed where the two tectonic plates are crashing into each other, and there is a mountain range on each side. Iran has been tunneling in those mountains for decades.
Jack Keane of the Institute for the Study of War, founded and run by its president, Kimberly Kagan, husband Frederick Kagan, son of Robert Kagan, husband of Victoria Nuland, the manager of the Orange Revolution in Ukraine which got that whole mess started. She was the lady handing out cookies.
If one believes Jack Keane or the other political propagandists at the ISW, Ukraine is winning their war. In the real world, Ukraine is on the brink of being exterminated as a nation-state. If Odesa falls, Ukraine is landlocked and likely non-viable with poor relations with all its land neighbors.
Others at ISW include William Kristol, and David Petraeus. It is straight up Neo-Con, Israel first.
<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jack_Keane"><font color="blue">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jack_Keane</font></a>
In January 2007, Keane and the scholar Frederick W. Kagan released a policy paper, "Choosing Victory: A Plan for Success in Iraq,"[22] through the American Enterprise Institute that called for bringing security by putting 30,000 additional American troops there for at least 18 months. In part convinced by this paper, President George W. Bush ordered on 10 January 2007, the deployment of 21,500 additional troops to Iraq, most of whom would be deployed to Baghdad. The deployment has been nicknamed the 2007 "surge".

Iran probably does have more motivation to stall than the US does simply because time could be more on their side than it is on Trump's side.
Trump's motivation is pretty simple. He cannot open the strait and cannot make military headway without committing to boots on the ground. Also, he could hardly sell a draft.

In the case of narrow straits like this which feed into another significant body of water, there is a UN sponsored treaty called UNCLOS that establish shipping transport rights through such waters. This treaty has never been ratified by either the US or Iran.
In time of armed conflict, the territorial waters of a belligerent are governed by the Law of Armed Conflict (LOAC), or Law of International Armed Conflict (LOIAC), not the peacetime Law of the Sea. In case of any legal conflict, where LOAC applies, it overrides UNCLOS.
The United States and Iran are each belligerents and belligerent nations to each other.
Below is a link to one restatement of the Law of Armed Conflict.
https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/media/5a7952bfe5274a2acd18bda5/JSP3832004Edition.pdf
THE JOINT SERVICE MANUAL OF THE LAW OF ARMED CONFLICT [UK]
Joint Service Publication 383, 2004 Edition, Maritime Warfare pp. 347-371.
Areas of Naval Warfare
The following are areas of naval warfare:
a. Subject to other applicable rules of international law contained in this chapter or elsewhere, hostile actions by naval forces may be conducted in, on, or over the territorial sea, internal waters, land territories, continental shelf, exclusive economic zone, and, where relevant, archipelagic waters of belligerent states (both enemy and allied). It should be noted that it is only internal waters and the territorial sea that together with the land territories constitute the territory of a belligerent. Other zones of maritime jurisdiction (eg continental shelf and exclusive economic zone) lying beyond the limits of the territorial sea do not form a part of the territory of the state.

No nation has a "right to exist".
Abraham Lincoln, House of Representatives, January 12, 1848
Any people anywhere, being inclined and having the power, have the right to rise up, and shake off the existing government, and form a new one that suits them better. This is a most valuable,—a most sacred right—a right, which we hope and believe, is to liberate the world. Nor is this right confined to cases in which the whole people of an existing government, may choose to exercise it. Any portion of such people that can, may revolutionize, and make their own, of so much of the teritory as they inhabit. More than this, a majority of any portion of such people may revolutionize, putting down a minority, intermingled with, or near about them, who may oppose their movement.
UNCLOS Article 311(1) "1. This Convention shall prevail, as between States Parties, over the Geneva Convention on the Law of the Sea of 29 April 1958." UNCLOS does not prevail over non-parties. It does not prevail between belligerents in a zone of armed conflict.

What Iran certainly understands is that declining western oil inventories is the factor in their favor. It's impacting lots of neutral countries globally, and those countries will blame Trump more than Iran. The strait was open before the war started, after all, and the war was started by Netanyahu & Trump.
The USA is selling off its Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR) at below market price to artificially lower the price. The SPR will probably run out in another month or so, at which time, if conditions do not change, the price of petroleum products will surge. That is one of the factors squeezing Trump. Another is that Netanyahu appears to be his boss.

>>Since Iran threatens to wipe Israel off the map.
This expression has, I believe long since been misinterpreted to mean genocide in the same sense that Israel applies it to Gaza and, it seems with increasing similarity to West Bank and southern Lebanon.
But the counter argument is that it refers to Israel as a political entity. As in, literally, having Israel no longer appear on maps, so literally "wiped off the map". The land would of course still be there, and potentially the current inhabitants as well. But the government/regime would no longer exist. It would be replaced by a new government, which is effectively what is already advocated for Iran, the difference being only that Iran's name wouldn't change.
Would Iran suggest Israel has no right to exist? Of course they would. but not necessarily in the genocidal sense.
Given how Israel has carried on over nearly the last 3 years, I agree Israel should not exist. Countries have never before been ascribed a "right to exist". People have a right to exist. Our own DoI declares as much. But governments do not. Not in Israel, Iran, or the USA.

Yeah they only killed 3000 because you think it is ok for force women to put bags over their heads. You must think it is ok to treat women as second hand citizens to be commanded and treated as inferiors by muslim men pieces of shit. A muslim is by definition a piece of shit.

@ChatGPT: Are women in Iran required to have head covering?
Yes. In Iran, women are still legally required to cover their hair in public. The requirement has been in place since shortly after the 1979 Iranian Revolution and remains part of Iranian law.
However, the situation on the ground has become more complicated:
Since the 2022 death of Mahsa Amini, many Iranian women have openly challenged the mandatory hijab requirement.
In some cities, especially parts of Tehran, it has become increasingly common to see women without head coverings in public. Enforcement is often inconsistent.
Despite that, the legal requirement has not been abolished. Iranian officials have repeatedly stated that compulsory hijab laws remain in force.
Authorities continue to use fines, surveillance, business closures, prosecutions, and other measures to enforce the rules, although enforcement methods have evolved over time.
There has been some confusion because a newer law that would have imposed even stricter penalties was suspended or not fully implemented in 2025. That suspension did not remove the underlying legal requirement for women to wear a head covering in public.
So the short answer is: Yes, Iranian law still requires women to wear a head covering in public, even though compliance and enforcement vary considerably by place and circumstance.
---------------
So apparently you are more concerned about a loosely enforced rule of women's head covering requirement in Iran than you are of the IDF sodomizing people.
---------------
@ChatGPT: Are there any educational restrictions on women in Iran?
Generally, no—women are not barred from education in Iran. In fact, women and girls attend primary school, secondary school, and universities, and women have often made up a very large share of university students. In some years, women have constituted more than half of university enrollments.
However, there are some important qualifications:
Schools are generally segregated by sex.
Female students are subject to dress-code requirements, including mandatory hijab rules.
At various times, the government has imposed restrictions or quotas affecting women's access to certain university programs. In 2012, for example, dozens of fields at multiple universities were restricted to men, including some engineering and science disciplines.
Critics have argued that some admissions policies and administrative measures continue to channel women away from certain fields or careers.
Center for Human Rights in Iran
So compared with countries such as Afghanistan under the Taliban—where women have at times been broadly prohibited from university education—Iran is very different. Iranian women do have access to education and are highly represented in higher education, but that access exists within a system that includes gender-based rules, segregation, and some restrictions on educational choices
---------------
But let me get this straight.... The women that are required to have head coverings are also Muslims, and since you say Muslims are pieces of shit, then that includes these women too. So why does it bother you that these pieces of shit women are required to wear head coverings? Seems you should be cheering for the Taliban which has far MORE restrictions on women rather than Iran whose society arguably isn't much more restrictive, apart from the hat requirement, than the US had before the 1970s. After all, according to your version of Christianity, the more suffering these pieces of shit people are forced to endure the happier God is. Right?
BTW:
"Every man who prays or prophesies with his head covered dishonors his head, but every wife [or woman] who prays or prophesies with her head uncovered dishonors her head..." (1 Corinthians 11:4–5)
"That is why a wife ought to have a symbol of authority on her head..." (1 Corinthians 11:10)
"Judge for yourselves: is it proper for a wife to pray to God with her head uncovered?" (1 Corinthians 11:13)
So it seems Christianity is a piece of shit religion too, right?
