Iran Update: Are You Tired of Winning Yet?
It looks as though the Iranian regime can’t last much longer.

Friday the 13th marked the beginning of the third week of the Iran war. And despite the doom and gloom from Democrats in Congress and their spokespeople in the media, we are winning. Big time.
According to the secretary of War, Pete Hegseth, and the chairman of the Joint Chiefs, General Dan Caine, we have destroyed 90% of Iran’s ballistic missiles and 95% of their drones, and we are well on the way to destroying their ability not just to assemble more, but to manufacture missile and drone components.
We have sunk all major combatants of the Iranian navy and are now turning to their mosquito boats, the speedboats hand-fitted with a couple of launch tubes that Iran hoped to use to “swarm” U.S. warships in the Persian Gulf.
Our aircraft dominate the skies to the extent that they can loiter over target areas, waiting for missile launchers to pop up and then take them out. How are that state-of-the-art Chinese radar working for you?
The Iranians have had some success, however.
On Wednesday, they managed to strike five commercial ships using drones: two tankers, a container ship, a bulk carrier, and a cargo vessel. Four were hit inside the Persian Gulf, the fifth in the Gulf of Oman.
The clear goal of the attacks was to shut down the Strait of Hormuz to all but Chinese and Iranian vessels and drive oil prices through the roof. Within hours, oil prices again spiked over $100 per barrel.
