Note: This is mainly being put together 24 hours earlier than usual because later tonight I am off to a Brownstone retreat. Some attendees include: Charles Eisenstein, Joseph Ladapo, and Walter Kirn.
So, it’s possible that things might have transpired overnight that really ought to have been included. Such are the times in which we live.
The End of the Neverending Peace Deal (a.k.a The Trump/Bibi War)?
Is the war on or off? Is there a deal or not? How much damage is each side doing to the other? Sadly, nobody knows the answers to these questions. At least none of us who have a ringside seat.
Trump is now threatening more war crimes:

In response, Iran fired dozens of ballistic missiles at a US Air Force base in Jordan. The Jordanian government released a statement saying that all missiles had been successfully intercepted and the ground crews were cleaning up fragments and debris.
Jordanian Armed Forces:"We intercepted 5 Iranian missiles aimed at Azraq (US Muwaffaq Salti Air Base)"Reminder: This base in Jordan hosts around 100 US fighter jets & other aircraft that participate in the war on Iran. https://t.co/tIGua4kKTt pic.twitter.com/tdAjvQXeeU

This video suggests the Jordanian government was being a tad optimistic in its assessment of the interception success rate:

And this video of missiles raining down and missile defenses streaking skyward clearly shows a pretty high sneak through rate (toward the end, I count five making it through):

My suspicion is that the US and Israel lost significant assets last
