yes, mod class is generally full on race sleds... they do test stuff in the mod classes which end up on the consumer side as mentioned. pro-stock and terrain racing is what I prefer to watch, or actually give a crap about. sadly, they haven't been in the ditches for a while now. hopefully that changes this winter...

maybe you should take your own advice Peter Retarrdo... 😉

can you point out which of the opinions you disagree with?

you ladies have two sites... well technically JFF has three to occupy your days. off to TBP echo chamber with you

they must have edited? refresh your page... this is what I'm seeing Leavitt said the U.S. hoped to build on "progress" made during the first summit with Kim, held in Singapore in 2018, and that Trump "remains receptive to correspondence with Kim Jong Un."

where? I didn't write the article, fyi. 😁

Opinion: How Iran Strikes Put Trump’s Impotence on Full Embarrassing Display The narratives being peddled by the Israeli and U.S. governments are not making matters clearer. It does not help matters that both are notorious for their lies. The Israelis quickly sought to make it appear that they coordinated the attack closely with Team Trump. They argued that Trump’s public statements of opposition to such attacks was all a ruse designed to mask the joint Israeli-US intent to strike a blow to Iran’s nuclear and missile launch capabilities. While the Trump statement was written to suggest the strikes were all part of a US-Israeli plan, a statement put out by U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio immediately after the attacks asserted, “Tonight, Israel took unilateral action against Iran. We are not involved in strikes against Iran.” The statement went on to assert that because of our lack of involvement, “Iran should not target U.S. interests or personnel.” While inconsistent with Trump’s remarks, Rubio’s statement does fit more easily with the seeming reality of the chill between the U.S. and Israel that made headlines when Benjamin Netanyahu was snubbed by Trump during the U.S. president’s recent trip to the Middle East. Other reports suggested the U.S. shared intelligence with the Israelis to help them prepare for the strikes. As seasoned Middle East analyst Steven Cook of the Council on Foreign Relations told me, in the hours after the attack there was “a lot of BS flying.” Call it the fog of war. Or call it the fog of having to deal with leaders like Trump and Netanyahu. Two things concerning Washington’s role in the attacks are, however, clear. One is that that despite the U.S. efforts to perform their now familiar clean-up on Aisle Trump duties, none of the possible scenarios for what actually happened with regard to the Israeli attacks reflect well on the U.S. president and his team. The other, related to the first, is that this latest development only extends the Trump Administration’s foreign policy losing streak and, combined with his fumbling efforts to look like he’s on top of this when he is clearly not, make him appear increasingly impotent. Consider the scenarios that might be true. If Trump is a master of the universe and he was playing 4-D chess negotiating with Iran while plotting Israel’s sneak attack and his goal was to use the threat of the attacks to push Iran toward a deal, that did not work. If, as the Israelis assert, Trump greenlit the attack he owns the war that will now take place and has put U.S. personnel in the region in grave jeopardy. Further, it suggests that either the negotiations with Iran were a sham or they failed. If he did not OK the attacks and actually argued against them as several experts with whom I have spoken believe, then it reveals yet again how little sway the U.S. has over an Israeli ally it continues to supply with vast amounts of military aid. If he knew about Israeli plans and considered an Israeli war with Iran an equally effective way to eliminate the Iranian nuclear threat, then he was being reckless and the jury is likely to be out for a long time about whether he was right and whether the losses incurred actually justify the returns. In any of these scenarios, of course, Trump’s position is doubly bad because there was in fact, a pretty good deal with Iran to keep it from developing nuclear weapons, the one negotiated by the Obama Administration, that Trump pulled out of in 2018. He undid it and now appears to have been unable to do his usual sleight of hand of condemning or undoing a deal then renegotiating and claiming credit for a deal that was pretty much the same as the one he pulled out of (see NAFTA). He will own the consequences which, should this turn into a protracted war or should there be significant civilian or U.S. casualties, could be severe. For a president who came into office professing mastery of the art of international diplomacy, great relations with world leaders, and ability to make peace in the world’s most volatile regions, this latest development is yet another setback. Indeed, it demonstrates that despite his self-image and in ironic contrast to his critique of his predecessor, Trump may be turning out to be the most impotent American president of the modern era. The war between Russia and Ukraine was not ended within “24 hours.” What is more, Trump’s efforts to court Vladimir Putin have largely been met with derision and rejection from the Russian president. The carnage in Gaza continues. In both cases, the problems are growing worse because of the reluctance of Trump to apply real pressure on leaders with whom he once boasted he had strong relations. The “Liberation Day” tariffs have been a flop producing virtually no gains of any sort for the U.S.: no real deal, only political backlash and market volatility. Trump, who likes to boast that he has “all the cards,” has been revealed to be holding little more than jokers in negotiations with the Chinese. Trump’s rejection of international trade norms and threats have alienated many of our closest allies who are now working furiously to find ways to move forward without the U.S. The leaders of many of those allies have in fact openly mocked or tweaked Trump, sometimes while sitting next to him in the Oval Office. Mockery of a U.S. president is not unprecedented. Rifts with allies happen. Biden did not have much influence over the Israelis either. But signs of Trump’s weakness internationally are spreading and its costs are rising in human, military and economic terms. The new crisis in the Middle East could compound those costs geometrically and, in so doing, diminish a U.S. president who appears to be shrinking daily on the global stage. https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/world/opinion-how-iran-strikes-put-trump-s-impotence-on-full-embarrassing-display/ar-AA1GERdF?ocid=msedgntp&pc=U531&cvid=374066e4cd9a4631b8c8c1261821e2da&ei=13 4D Chess Master Negiotator

at the minimum if true... it's quite tacky

At the heart of the operation was the neutralization of Iran’s nuclear development sites. Among the confirmed targets were: Natanz Fuel Enrichment Plant – Iran’s primary uranium enrichment facility. Fordow Fuel Enrichment Plant – the deeply buried underground complex near Qom. Isfahan Uranium Conversion Facility is essential to producing uranium hexafluoride gas. Parchin Military Complex – long suspected of housing high-explosives testing related to nuclear warheads. Karaj Centrifuge Assembly Center is a key site for advanced centrifuge production. Arak Heavy Water Reactor (IR-40) – suspected of having plutonium production potential. In parallel to targeting nuclear infrastructure, Israel dealt a devastating blow to the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) leadership. Sources confirm that several senior IRGC and Quds Force commanders were killed, including: Gen. Mohammad Reza Zahedi – a senior Quds Force commander and advisor in Syria. Gen. Mohammad Hadi Haji Rahimi – Zahedi's deputy. Gen. Hassan Mahdavi – intelligence coordinator for the IRGC Aerospace Force. Davoud Jafari, an IRGC aerospace expert, is reportedly involved in drone and missile programs. Esmail Qaani, commander of the Quds Force, is reportedly injured or missing, though unconfirmed. The strike also targeted IRGC headquarters in Tehran, Mashhad, and Kermanshah, in addition to logistical depots and missile sites in Khorramabad and Tabas. Arab reactions to the Israeli operation have been publicly critical, with statements of condemnation issued by Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Bahrain, and Kuwait. But behind closed doors, the mood is far more nuanced. Many Gulf officials see the decimation of Iran’s hardline IRGC leadership and nuclear capacity as a relief—a strike they could not execute themselves but have quietly wished for. Israeli actions, particularly after its recent military campaigns against Hezbollah in Lebanon and Hamas in Gaza, are seen by some regional analysts as completing a broader strategy to eradicate Iran’s regional influence. With Iran's largely untouched economic lifeline—its oil and gas infrastructure on Kharg Island, Assaluyeh, and Bandar Abbas—energy markets have remained jittery but stable. However, the specter of Iranian retaliation looms. Potential scenarios include: Attacks on Gulf oil and gas infrastructure, particularly in Saudi Arabia's Eastern Province and the UAE's Fujairah facilities. Disruption of the Strait of Hormuz, through which one-fifth of global oil passes. Proxy escalations in Iraq, Syria, Yemen, or Lebanon. Cyberattacks on critical infrastructure in Israel or allied countries. Targeting of U.S. and Western military bases in Qatar, Bahrain, and the UAE.
