The war on Iran seems to be heating up. I will explain to you why that may be a good thing.
And there is a reason why the Left is so against this war. They just hate the United States.
Updates on Iran
- The United Kingdom Maritime Trade Operations (UKMTO) said a container ship was struck by an “unknown projectile” 35 nautical miles northwest of Dubai and Jebel Ali in the United Arab Emirates. The incident happened after a projectile hit a Thai-flagged cargo ship off the coast of Oman in the Strait of Hormuz on Wednesday, setting it on fire. President Donald Trump has warned of consequences if Iran acts to stop the transport of oil in the Strait of Hormuz.
- Bahrain, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates reported being targeted by attacks on Thursday involving missiles and drones. Bahrain said the “Iranian aggression targeted fuel tanks,” while Saudi Arabia said it shot down two drones.
- Trump said Wednesday that reports of a potential Iranian revenge plot involving drones launched from offshore targeting California are being investigated. Trump also said he had been briefed about potential Iranian sleeper cells inside the United States, adding that authorities are monitoring the situation closely.
- Iran also has been firing cluster munitions into populated areas. Where is the U.N.? Isn’t this against “International Law”?
- Iran’s new Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei released a new message Thursday saying that the Strait of Hormuz will remain closed until the war is over. This was made by a Iranian newscaster, not the Ayatollah. No one has seen the guy.
- Six Iranian women from the Iranian soccer team have defected in Australia.
- Donald Trump has invited the Iranian soccer team to the FIFA World Cup.
- In a controversy, Pete Hegseth has been accused of blowing $94.3 billion on luxury items within the Department of War.

It’s Almost Over
According to the Daily Wire:
Oil prices jumped Thursday morning to over $100 per barrel as Iran continued striking ships throughout the region.
The global benchmark Brent crude climbed above $100 early Thursday morning for the first time since Monday before slipping slightly to $97.81. The spike came as Iranian attacks on ships in the Strait of Hormuz and Persian Gulf disrupted the flow of oil in the region.
At least two oil tankers were struck off the coast of Iraq on Wednesday by projectiles, according to the shipping monitoring group United Kingdom Maritime Trade Operations. Crews on both tankers were evacuated as fires broke out.
Iran reportedly took credit for attacking one of the tankers, claiming the ship “disobeyed and ignored” commands. Iran is suspected of attacking the other tanker, according to Iraqi officials.
One Could Only Hope
According to the New York Post:
The FBI issued an urgent warning to cops across California of a potential Iranian drone strike on the Golden State.
Tehran was looking at deploying unmanned aircraft on the region as the country reels after the US wiped out its supreme leader last month, the alert said.
The bureau said in early February agents had intelligence that drones could be sent from an unidentified vessel off the American coast.
California has the highest concentration of Iranian dissidents in the US — up to 500,000 — but it is not clear if that was why the state could be targeted.
The FBI alert said: “We recently acquired information that as of early February 2026, Iran allegedly aspired to conduct a surprise attack using unmanned aerial vehicles from an unidentified vessel off the coast of the United State Homeland, specifically against unspecified targets in California, in the event that the US conducted strikes against Iran.”
It added: “We have no additional information on the timing, method, target, or perpetrators of this alleged attack.”
The alert was sent to police departments across the region, but it does not make clear where specifically could be targeted. The FBI declined to comment when approached by The Post.
Panicking for Nothing
According to the New York Post:
The ominous “Doomsday” plane has been spotted flying over California — for the second time in two months.
The huge Boeing E-6B Mercury, which is the president’s emergency operations hub if nuclear war breaks out, coasted over Fresno over the weekend.
Airport bosses said it was conducting approaches at the site and spent two hours doing mock landings, leaving onlookers stunned.
The aircraft serves as a nuclear control platform and strategic command post. If the plane had to execute its mission, the US could be heading for a nuclear war.
The platform can control bombers, missiles and ballistic missile submarines. It can remain airborne for up to 12 hours without refueling and is capable of refueling mid-flight to extend missions even longer.
It is built to maintain global communications and operate even if ground command centers are disabled, essentially functioning as a mobile Pentagon in the sky.
“They can control the bombers, if the bombers are on alert, they can control the missiles, because the missiles are always on alert, and obviously they can control our ballistic missile submarines,” Major General Garrison told Fox 26. “It’s all combined into one.”
The plane caused panic at the beginning of the year when it was spotted at Los Angeles International Airport. But Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth had been using the plane for his his “arsenal of freedom” tour.
