Well, as of this morning, it seems we have launched military operations in Equator against "narco terrorists". So, my answer to #2 is that it will go on until 'he' is removed (along with Miller et.al.) or dead, the goal being that the "files" never get revealed.

I saw that. Well, I suppose the president no longer needs to work on peaceful solutions since he was already “given” the Nobel Peace Prize.

1. Why did we attack, and whose idea was it?

1. Why - the long answer starts with the 1st Crusade. This is a timeline since the US got involved in 1953 ...because we wanted cheap oil.

The current claim is that Iran is nearing the ability to deliver nuke weapon to the US. I do not believe they have the missile ability to do so. But they certainly could hand carry a "suitcase" nuke into the US, IF they can obtain one. I doubt that Iran is close to building nuke weapons, but buying a few suitcases from Russia...

Iran's deterrent from setting off suitcase bombs in the US, is that we have the ability of annihilate their county. I for one, do not feel safer with a major attack on Iran in progress. And they have long memories.

1. Who - Trump
2. Is there a stated, achievable end goal and timeline?

2. Not really, no, no
3,4, someone else needs to answer
5. If another country decides to attack us while we’re attacking Iran, do we have the troops and weaponry to defend ourselves on another front?

WHO? North Korea, Russia, China, Greenland?
5. We have lots of nuke weapons, & they make great deterrents... really!

Did you see Plemons in the Black Mirror episode?

I thought I had seen all of the episodes but I don't remember this one - I'll have to go back and check it out. Thanks!

1. Why did we attack, and whose idea was it?

Not really sure why we attacked. I heard different things and quite honestly, the more they talk, the more it doesnt make much sense to me. As for whose Idea it was, that would be the one and only orange muppet and I'm sure Hegseth had his hand in it as he was getting bored and wanted to do more cosplay to show how manly he is. (don't even get me started how he threatened 'Scouting America', aka the Boy Scouts, to stop supporting them if they continued with their DEI policy of inclusion.)

2. Is there a stated, achievable end goal and timeline?

No. We're screwed.

3. How can the pro-democracy Iranian people overturn the theocratic government when they are unarmed?

They cant, chalk it up to Trump not having a clue on what he is dong. However, Trump is very familiar with people trying to overturn the govt. He loved watching it when his MAGA looney tunes tried it here.

4. In a few days, we’ve already lost 6 American lives and spent $5 billion dollars. How much more are we prepared to lose?

As Trump said, "thoughts and prayers but there will be more fatalities". Lets not forget about where an air strike hit an elementary school and something like 160 young girls were killed. :(

5. If another country decides to attack us while we’re attacking Iran, do we have the troops and weaponry to defend ourselves on another front?

Now you're talking cokee talk. That would require him having a thought out plan, which that is not something Trump has the capability of doing.
He is always just impulsive without even thinking.

The only thing that I can come up with to describe what is going on is 'EPSTEIN FILES'

Trumps motto has been and will always be...'oh, look over there...'

Trump hasn't ruled out American boots on the ground. Have we learned nothing? Meanwhile, #SendBarron is trending on social media.

It’s called USS Callister. From season 4. There is also a sequel episode in season 7 called USS Callister: Into Infinity.

As for boots on the ground, Im not surprised, It's like a game to him and will do anything to stop the release of all the Epstein files.

Trying to make a full schedule! I hear driving in Miami is a nightmare, more so than anywhere else. So, feeling a little concerned about that, but hoping to head to Miami for Cuban food. :) Maybe a box or two. :)

I would highly recommend transferring your image with acetone; the clearer and crisper you make your image, the easier it is to see in clear detail and the better you can carve. I have vision issues and this, plus LIGHT(Lots!) and MAGNIFICATION are the 3 most important things I need to help with my carving!

Hi! I'm looking for ideas on how to hide a letterbox in an evergreen tree with low, thick branches. I don't think a rock would go unnoticed underneath without folks moving it, but a little green box within the branches would be an excellent hide if I can figure out keeping it there.
Team size?

Many letterboxers hide the letterbox in green netting attached to the branches of trees.

well... take this as you will, I've lived here all my life, then when up in AK i drove the the Seward Highway near the Turnagain Arm with a Subaru and was like "man! What a gorgeous, twisty, fun to drive road! I love this! What an exhilarating drive! 4 wheel drive is awesome!" and the fellow who caught a ride with me thought I was nuts.

Also, I swear by a owning a dash cam. Won't have a car without one now. :D

We have glued the hook portion of an old plastic coat hanger to a LocknLock container. I don't remember what kind of glue we used but it helps to rough up the plastic with sandpaper before applying glue.

We’ve seen a bunch of different clever ways boxes are hidden in evergreen trees. We’ve used zip ties and small medicine bottles with camo duct tape.
The bird suet holder was the most clever idea we have seen. Inside the suet holder was a black duct-taped pouch containing the logbook and stamp.
It was very camouflaged among the tree branches and securely held the pouch.

This is a cluster phuque* and it's only just begun. Trump is destabilizing the entire Middle East. He is doing what all of the terrorist groups have been trying to do for decades - create chaos. So what does that make him?

From now on, No other nation, except Israel, is going to trust us. This is gonna be an endless war. Someday we may get out of the war, but the region's "US induced" war will continue. And we probably will never leave the region.

BTW Israel had no qualms about attacked the USS Liberty in 1967 because they consider attacking it and apologizing later as in their best interest. The attack killed 34 Americans and wounded 171 more.
