Well, howdy there, internet people, it's spell again. So today, we're going to talk about

Trump's Iran buildup, what it looks like and what comes next. About a week ago, I put out a video

going over Trump's decision to deploy additional military assets to the Mideast.

The short version of that video is that the deployment of the second carrier was unnecessary

and primarily a chauffeur is base at home. But the deployment of the Thad system was a clear

indication that the military thinks chicken and waffles Trump

is serious about hitting Iran again. Watch the video below for more details. Since then,

the buildup has only intensified. Trying to establish U.S. intent based on Trump's statements

is a fool's errand. He is not a reliable

source of information. But looking at assets deployed can tell us a lot. The administration is saying

they'll be ready for military action by this weekend. The reality is they've been capable of strikes in Iran for quite some time.

Since the last video, the amount of attack aircraft in the region has dramatically increased.

Perhaps more importantly, we've seen KC-135 refueling planes, and we've seen a lot of airborne control centers enter the region,

or go to places close enough to be used. Unlike last time, this buildup is huge. The last strikes

were over in 30 minutes. There are now enough resources there to run a campaign exceeding 30 days, which really means

forever because of resupply. For their part, Iran is deploying air defenses everywhere,

and we've got word that their medical services are already on alert. The country is promising retaliation for any attack. Trump has pulled a number

of U.S. officials from the region. He has also pulled what looks like all U.S. troops from Syria.

This is reducing Iran's targets for retaliation. So what's the plan? It looks like Trump wants to try regime

change from the air. That's risky. First, when the stated reason is regime change, the opposition

government fights with everything they have. They have nothing to lose. They win or they're gone. Second, strikes large

enough to destabilize a government to the point that it collapses, generally carry a heavy
