Questioning my mindset

That is the question, so this is not about IP, or even about hardware. This is a software question, my software. It becomes the setting, am I a delusional paranoid, or a paranoid delusional? You might think this is fun, but I woke up at 03:30 when thoughts hit me and I looked online to seek some kind of verification (I really believe in verification, because that leads to validation) So I found CNBC (at https://www.cnbc.com/2026/05/21/iran-war-us-peace-talks-trump-hormuz.html) where we see ‘Iran reviews U.S. peace proposal as Trump says he’s willing to wait ‘a few days’’ and my first question was “He is willing to wait a few days?” The article where we see “Iran Foreign Ministry spokesperson Esmaeil Baghaei said the Islamic Republic had received the views of the American side “and are reviewing them,” according to the state-run agency Nour News.” The article was all neat and shiny (particularly the shiny part) and it merely increased the tensions within me. And I wonder if it is just me, or are there sides that others had picked up on? There is no blame to the media here, they merely reported on items and they did that. I think there is no oversight on their part, unless they all look at the complete picture from March 1st this year. Where some might see “President Trump used the phrase “bomb them back to the Stone Ages” in an April 2026 primetime address regarding the U.S. war with Iran. In the speech, he threatened to hit Iranian infrastructure “extremely hard” to force Tehran into negotiations over the Strait of Hormuz.” Yet the second article gives us (at https://www.nbcnews.com/world/iran/iran-us-talks-trump-tehran-gaps-nuclear-deal-pakistan-war-rcna346258) where we see ‘Iran-U.S. diplomacy intensifies as Trump seeks ‘right answers,’ Tehran signals gaps ‘reduced’’ and as I see it, President Trump never waited for right answers, you can look up his responses right back to the start of the 51st states mentions. The man talks before his brain kicks into motion. And the byline “A visit by Pakistan’s army chief Thursday was aimed at “reaching the point of officially announcing acceptance of the memorandum of understanding,” Iran’s semiofficial ISNA news agency reported.” Might have been the settler of it all. It comes with “Tehran was responding to Washington’s latest proposal, which had “reduced the gaps to some extent” between the two sides, the semiofficial ISNA news agency reported early Thursday. It said that a visit by Pakistan’s army chief was “aimed at reducing these gaps and reaching the point of officially announcing acceptance of the memorandum of understanding.”” The seed in me evolved and it blossomed right into a Castor Bean plant in my brain. The thought that had evolved was “Was this war about destabilizing the Middle East?” The attacks on the UAE was another part, the attacks on Saudi Arabia and Qatar seemed to be supporting this all. The entire setting is a sort of death jerk by the United States to stop the decrease of what is overwhelming them, as to reduce the damage that seems to be coming for them. The successes that the UAE got in Tourism and to some effect Saudi Arabia too, President Trump sees the lack of tourism that is coming for them and Canada exasperated that notion. The numbers aren’t adding up and why? Why are at least 3 government installations in the United States cooking the books? (Or at least that is what it looks like to me) and my mind around 02:00 this morning hammered me awake with this notion. The United States are destabilizing the Middle East to avoid total disaster before 2027. I don’t think they will, but the underlying setting then becomes is Iran in on this? They might like to destabilize Saudi Arabia and the UAE as well, and they are willing to play their part. I have no idea where Israel is in this and they might merely like the idea of bombing Iran, they have been their target for long enough.

So the question becomes “Am I merely a paranoid delusional individual or am I also a delusional paranoid?” It is a fair question to ask myself, and the answer could go either way, but I don’t believe that anyone has a clear answer. Perhaps the media has, but they are likely to busy chasing digital dollars. And the media answers are tainted to say the least. And as I see it Google Gemini (yes, I confronted a second source in this) gives us: “Middle East destabilization is currently driven by the active Iran war that began on February 28, 2026, when US and Israeli forces launched preemptive airstrikes. The resulting regional escalation—including retaliatory strikes on Gulf states and threats to global shipping—has shattered the pre-existing geopolitical balance and triggered severe diplomatic and humanitarian crises”, as such I don’t think I am entirely wrong. It might be flawed as the notion is subjective and that tends to come with data gaps, but the thoughts are there. 

So, as I put this to printed paper, perhaps my mind will relax and I might still get around 150 minutes of ZZZZZ time. Have a great day.

We saw it before

This morning I saw the news and I was thinking ‘again?’ You see, Iran is using the same tactic they gave to Hamas, when ammunition gets low, they offer a cease fire until the next shipment come in. And as I see it the news as we see it with ‘UAE reports drone and missile attack as Iran war ceasefire is challenged’ (at https://apnews.com/article/iran-us-israel-war-may-8-2026-6490db55a65880a61a6233eff7acc68b) and ‘UAE countering Iranian air attack after Trump says ceasefire still in effect’ (https://www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/uae-countering-iranian-air-attack-after-trump-says-ceasefire-still-effect-2026-05-08/) is some kind of proof of my thinking. So when we look at the Reuters summary we see:

  • UAE says air defences engaging Iranian drones, missiles
  • US says three destroyers attacked, no damage
  • Iran says US violated ceasefire and it returned fire
  • Fighting broke out as Iran reviews US proposal to end war
  • Trump says ceasefire still in effect, Iran says situation is back to normal

It’s the same old story and I for one, even as I applaud the setting if the UAE not to be the escalator in all this would be kinda happy to see Iranian infrastructure implode on itself. The stage of Iran having to reassess itself as the world has grown tired of this tantrum leading nation is too offensive, especially as the UAE is exploring non-oil and innovative stages that it is exploring. It is not some oil nation using its natural resources, it is trying to seek innovation. I reckon that it that search and the creation of innovation is what Iran fears. It was always the their pathetic attempts to upstage their bigger islamic brother Saudi Arabia, but when the UAE also surpassed Iran, it was too much to those religious proclaimers of the Rumi of Islam whilst they get others to attack the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, getting their political shield up, known as ‘I know nothing of this’ but now as they attack the other gulf nations their game is up. We can accept that they strike out to the United States and Israel as they attacked them, but the attacks that they took unto the gulf states now has whatever friends they thought they had will now be ready to undo the Islamic Republic of Iran and it seemingly lasted less then 50 years. And now as I see it, the other islamic countries could either destroy Iran, or be destroyed by it and there is additional evidence, see what Hamas left of Gaza, a nation that accepted 2005 disengagement when Israel withdrew its military forces and settlers, leading to a brief period with hopes for economic independence, but this was followed by a takeover by Hamas in 2007. Two years that is all that was given to Gaza, Hamas ruled under the coat of Iran an increasingly violent setting and now as Hamas is seeking whatever it can, Iran considered the same and even as it was attacked, it took the wrong stance and whilst it had options to return attacks to Israel, it decided to attack the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Bahrain, Jordan, Kuwait and Oman and don’t give me the “only to attack United States military bases”, the 549 ballistic missiles, 29 cruise missiles, and over 2,260 drones it did on the UAE, The United States has the Al Dhafra Air Base (Abu Dhabi), the Jebel Ali Port (Dubai) and the Al Minhad Air Base which is also hosting some level of support to the United States. So whilst all these attacks were heading to civilian targets, how much damage did the first two have? How many Americans did they drones aim for? That is the setting that Iran evoked and as I see it, the Islamic world has had enough of this Iranian corruption and the world is watching. So whilst we see too much disinformation the press, we need to consider what is next. No matter what I added this equation, the islamic world needs to unite. In my view it would be led by Saudi Arabia and the UAE and all the distortion that is happening to them might be the more Iranian interventions, but in that I am grasping at straws. Personally I want the UAE get out stronger and I reckon they can, but it requires someone to deal with Iran before it gets too far out of hand.

My confusion

That is what I was burdened with. Arab News (at https://www.arabnews.com/node/2638181/saudi-arabia) give us ‘Leaders of Saudi Arabia, Qatar and Jordan discuss military escalation in the region’, for me the confusion becomes, “Why isn’t the UAE involved?” And the story gives us “The leaders of Saudi Arabia, Qatar and Jordan discussed the repercussions of the military escalation in the region and its risks to freedom of international navigation and the security of energy supplies in Jeddah on Monday, the Saudi Press Agency reported. The impact of the escalation on the global economy and the coordination of joint efforts to enhance regional security and stability were also discussed during the meeting hosted by Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman and attended by Qatar’s Emir Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al-Thani and Jordan’s King Abdullah II.” My confusion doesn’t end there. The escalations seemed to be set into alleged spreading discourse in the Middle East, Iran like a toddler, that it is denied a bigger seat at the table and a bigger slice of the pie is spreading discourse to the UAE and Saudi Arabia. To see the evolution of that thought I have two pieces of information.

In the first image we see the realist on the UAE, in the second image we see Arab News who gave us last week how it differs towards Israel.

However, the third image (from another source) gives us another picture. We are given 342 missiles and 1,699 drones for the UAE, 26 missiles and 413 drones for Saudi Arabia as well as 183 missiles and 87 drones for Qatar. I get the attacks on Israel, Israel attacked Iran, as such Iran attacks Israel now. But the numbers do not make sense to me in any traditional setting of warfare, even in the desperate setting we saw Iran in the past. This kind of warfare is about creating distrust. And as I see it the United States likes that a little too much. I reckon that the United States has its own reasons. But the damage destabilisation gives the Middle East is now too dangerous to consider. But Iran does not care, it wants a seat, a much bigger seat and it will take any risk it need to take. This is pretty much one of the reasons that I gave my IP (to destroy Iranian harbours, rails and roads) to Saudi Arabia and the UAE, because I personally feel that a strong and stable Middle East is at present one of the best things we could hope for in our world. 

To give us a better view on the numbers. The UAE got hit with the same amount of drones as the sum of all other gulf nation. 

So, if these numbers are correct (still a dangerous thing to ‘compare’ percentages), Iran hit the UAE more often than the attacking nation of Israel. Does that make sense to anyone? I get that they attack Israel, it attacked them, but the UAE never attacked Iran (to the best of my knowledge), a setting, which I initially considered to be an act of desperation to get the Gulf States involved in all this. Is now seen (by me) as a way for Iran to get a larger piece of the Gulf pie and a larger seat at the table. As such the United States is hitting Iran, but if my thoughts are on the money, I reckon that soon enough some miraculous setting comes up that is laughingly called peace and as the United States will give some repartee that they ‘won’ the war, the actual winner would be Iran, because they will end up with a much bigger seat at the table and they will push their hatred of Israel to the entire table and the United States will not care what happens to Israel, they get to live another month with the oil settings they end up with. 

Now, this is all speculation, but it fits the current data model and if that data changes, so will it debunk my speculation on this matter, I can live with this, because I got here without aid from the media, they are busy chasing their digital dollars. In all this, the setting that the world is better off with a destabilised Middle East is utterly wrong. It comes from conservative christians and jokes that have listened to and loved the Crusaders fables going back centuries. And we made the mess in this world ourselves, we let ourselves be fooled and bought the considerations that others gave us. But I believe that a strong Middle East (one without Iran) is our best option to regain some of what we all lost. As I see it, it will also exclude the United States, no matter when this president is replaced, it is now living under the yoke of minus $38 trillion (aka minus $38,000,000,000,000, or is it minus $38,000,000,000,000,000?) we throw billions and trillions around like it is nothing, but the real number in dollars shows the world how deep the hole is that the United States dug for itself. And consider that they had a proven crude oil reserve in the United States of 44.4 billion barrels and still they are digging themselves an increasing debt hole. And no matter what hypes we see, there is nothing they will do, because Wall Street lives in the now, and the next and previous quarter. This shortsighted setting only held those who think that they are in charge, but they are slaves to greed and ego. That is how I see it and I understand that I might be wrong, but this is where the data leads me. Above else I do believe in data, the verified versions above all others. So could I be wrong? Definitely, but what conclusions do you draw from the facts we are exposed to? And at this time with this administration the United States has, do you actually think that they will add anything to the matter? This president (seemingly) and his businesses defaulted on hundreds of millions in loans and filed for corporate bankruptcy six times between 1991 and 2009. Then we get the settings of Canada and Greenland which alienated his northern neighbor and they are now shunning the United States costing it billions in tourism and a lot more in various ways. It alienated Europe wanting to ‘annex’ Greenland and this president kept on insulting the European leaders who are now aligning with Canada and this collection of 28 nations is largely shunning the United States. Then he went to Venezuela and did it all over again and now we see Iran, which is apparently costing the United States The US war on Iran, which began in early 2026, cost an estimated $ 11.3 billion in the first six days and surpassed $ 16.5 billion by day 12, according to reports. Costs include high munitions expenditures, repairs to regional infrastructure, and accelerated military deployments, with over $200 billion in additional funding (source: Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS)). So how much is the United States getting out of this? The question is slowly becoming what does the United States have to gain with a destabilised Middle East? I don’t expect the media to look into this, not with the digital dollar drive they have, but that might be my speculative mind. 

So you all have a great day and consider what harm destabilisation of the Middle East will bring us all and consider that President Trump has figured out one thing. The nation with the most oil will survive at present, so where does that leave Iran? Enjoy your day this day.

In Summary

Yes, at times it is time to review the ideas I spouted. I stand by them, but like any engineer and reengineer, I feel that there is a need to revisit the thoughts I had and at times improve on them. I started to look at these ideas again. It all started with ‘Ones Creative Process’ (at https://lawlordtobe.com/2026/03/08/ones-creative-process/) which grabbed back to ‘The impact of insanity’ which I wrote on January 20th, 2019 where I found a ‘new novel’ way to shut down ports and take the harbours out of the equation for Iran. I liked the idea of the setting to give no quarter, but not to pound on the Iranians with bombs. They tend to get a lot of innocents killed. This way with the loss of almost no lives, the idea was to sink boats in the breakwater of a harbour, of perhaps in the harbour themselves. It stops the harbour from being functional for days, if not weeks. I would hope weeks towards months. Getting a ship out of the breakwater tends to be massively tedious and they need to blow up the ship, optionally scuttle the cargo it has. The idea brooded in my mind for over 5 years, as such I felt it to be pretty complete. It might have needed some tinkering, because I had no way of testing this, but the idea was sound. I handed the ideas to both the UAE and Saudi Arabia who were hit by Iran unprovoked and I felt that I would have done my bit against Iranian aggression. But I felt It was not enough

A few days later, I came up with ‘With Ice please’ (at https://lawlordtobe.com/2026/03/10/with-ice-please/) where I found a way to deal with the railway of Iran. The idea of bombing railway lines serves too little purpose. But take a small setting (as discussed) to hit the rail clip and shoulder with liquid nitrogen and a much smaller blast, the liquid nitrogen makes the these parts brittle and the smallest blast will shatter these parts. The rail would be loose on the beams and when the train goes over them, that one rail gives way and the train derails. A simple setting where we hit the rails and remove that train and all its cargo from being usable for months (most likely) and the railway system will take days, if not weeks to get fixed. The setting will get complicated to get both the train and the rails back into service. And this plan could be redone over and over again over the 13,000 miles of tracks they have it stops all commerce quite literally in its tracks. Because either the trains run on walking speed as these tracks are checked or they take the chance with every train they drive. I thought that there was a symmetrical form of equity. I would be so willing to damage 1,672 pieces of track, in answer of the 1,672 drones attacks on the UAE. I have a wicked sense of humor. It also had a second idea towards that design, which has a few quirks, but if solved, it could speed up the solution of disabling Iranian railways. 

On march 14th I wrote ‘Regurgitating’ (at https://lawlordtobe.com/2026/03/14/regurgitating/), which revisited a setting on how Iran likely attacked Aramco location in Saudi Arabia. This setting was presumptive, but at least my version should work and that would enable the idea with one operator taking down an entire refinery. The original piece was written as ‘Droning right along’ (at https://lawlordtobe.com/2025/06/14/droning-right-along/) The idea gives one operator the ability to target over a dozen places at the same time and take out the bulk of the refinery. And they only have 10, so they could hit all 10 with 10 operators, or do it in a few times. The simplest setting set in motion by the Chinese drone show of a dragon. When it can be this precise, taking out key points on any refinery is a simple construction. 

So on March 20th 2026 I wrote ‘Optionally sorting land abilities’ (at https://lawlordtobe.com/2026/03/20/optionally-sorting-land-abilities/) to ‘demoralize’ land based targets. My initial target was Isfahan Shahid Beheshti International Airport and its cargo abilities. Here I opted for “matted plastic balls containing crazy glue”, but at present I am not so sure it will work. But the idea is sound, if we replace them for small balls of explosives, first I thought to use drops of nitro glycerine, but that didn’t work. The original idea of small balls of c4 with a delayed explosive (like 15-30 seconds) so we get back to the idea of these balls having some kind of crazy glue and from there it gets ‘nasty’ consider the Russian transports going through Turkmenistan, those roads take  a long time to traverse, so this solution at the 50% point in Iran should set back all cargo forks if not months. The largest problem is on the spot redesigning is the fact that everything needs to be reexamined. A simple setting that Sun Tzu gave us 2000 years ago, a simple resetting of that premise in a modern day. Although I still have a few issues with the land approach, I feel pretty certain that rail and ships are decently taken care of and these solutions take a fraction of what President Trump had in mind. My solution takes at most a few millions, as such it optionally costs a mere 0.005% of the $200,000,000,000 bill that President Trump had in mind. So, I think it is decent to say that I am the better solution. I still think that his 200 billion is more about the United States being broke than anything else, but that might be on me.

Consider the fact that they are so set towards bombing the hell out of Iran, the idea that they had a ‘grand victory’ I created solutions (for the UAE and Saudi Arabia) at a fraction of these costs and I am happy to give these IP’s to both the UAE and Saudi Arabia to stop Iran from attacking their neighbours, or they can utilize these solutions to stop Iran in their tracks. Sometimes there is a blessed balance of what one does and what we can do in opposition. Iran might not be at war with me, but if lucky I do want to have one vacation in Abu Dhabi at some point, as such it is imperative to find a solution to stop Iran. In addition, I never liked Iran attacking (via Houthi terrorists) Aramco locations, and as such I created the IP to do something about that too. All the creation Iran threw at its enemies are now turning against themselves. 

It might not be a pacifist solution, but for the most they are seen as cowards, I will happily apologise to the few that are pacifist for pure ideological reasons. But in a war, it is weird to rely on pacifist solutions. I would much rather stop these warmongers in their tracks and Iran is a warmonger, especially against Saudi Arabia, the UAE and Qatar. I wonder what DARPA will make of these solutions. Especially as they demoralize Iran at a fraction of the cost they are ‘prompting’ now. 

So you all have a great day and consider what a creative mind (in a tough spot) can deploy.

The other side of a thing

Arab News gave us hours ago (at https://arab.news/cy2eb) that Iran attacks Saudi Arabia unabated where we are given ‘Saudi Arabia shoots down multiple drones as Iranian attacks continue’ as such Iran twists the lies that they will not attack and still do this because of whatever brain figment they are concocting. But this time they are out of luck. The world has had enough of Iran and as they are are attacking muslim nations, not even other Muslims will accept the reasons they give, as such they are in a new untested ground. What happens when the Sunni Muslims have had enough of them? So as Saudi Arabia, the UAE and Qatar are attacked, these nations will now defend themselves and even Qatar has clearly had enough of all of this. So, whilst we see “Saudi Arabia’s air defenses have intercepted and destroyed at least 26 drones on Friday, the country’s defense ministry confirmed, as aerial attacks on Gulf nations persisted. Authorities in Kuwait and the United Arab Emirates also said earlier they were also contending with missile fire and drone threats. The UAE defense ministry said air defenses shot down four ballistic missiles and 26 drones coming from Iran on Friday. Since the start of the Iranian attacks, the UAE has dealt with 338 ballistic missiles, 15 cruise missiles and 1,740 drones.” So, whilst some will wonder what is going on, Iran is now slapping its neighbours around for being more successful than them. So, whilst Iran is hitting out against Aramco and ADNOC, we are seeing “According to the Saudi defense ministry, the majority of the drones were shot down over the Eastern Province, home to the kingdom’s major oil refineries, while one was intercepted over the northern province of Al Jouf.

The fresh wave of attacks comes a day after a drone struck a Saudi oil refinery on the Red Sea, and causing fires at two additional facilities in Kuwait, as Iran escalated its campaign against Gulf energy infrastructure.” As I personally see it, all the gulf states have had enough of Iran and I reckon that their retribution will be on their mind as Eid Al Fitr has ended and Ramadan was concluded. As I see it, Iran has no further concern for leniency and I handed both Saudi Arabia and UAE the IP to stop infrastructure to facilitate a three pronged attack on Iran. Land, Sea and Rail will be put under pressure with the setting that reverberates for months to come. I also handed them the option of destroying their airfields, but that solution is one that takes months to really impact and will not be seen for some time. Well, the technology was create pressure and whilst some airfields will be part of the United States Clambake, there is no quick solution there. So, whilst Saudi Arabia gives us that “In addition to the drones, Saudi air defenses have intercepted 42 ballistic missiles and seven cruise missiles over the same period, underscoring the sustained and varied nature of the aerial campaign against the kingdom.” It is clear that the Kingdom is under repetitive attack from Iran and as I see it, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia has merely one answer to counter all this before another Aramco location will show a repetitive attack and damage, Saudi Arabia has several options none of them non-violent and all with the approval of the near entire world. And as I personally see it, that is how it should be. A bully like Iran should never be allowed to win, not even a small win. They need to see that there are consequences from attacking their Muslim neighbours. And my idea for hitting infrastructure is now showing that it was the right thing to do all along as the Australian Financial Review gives us ‘Iran says it’s building more missiles’ where (at https://www.afr.com/politics/federal/israel-launches-new-strikes-on-tehran-bowen-refuses-to-rule-out-changes-to-fuel-tax-20260320-p5qs8n) we see “The spokesman for Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps insisted on Friday that Tehran was still building missiles, seeking to counter a claim by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that it no longer could. General Ali Mohammad Naeini also said the Iran war would go on.

“These people expect the war to continue until the enemy is completely exhausted,” the general said of the Iranian public. “This war must end when the shadow of war is lifted from the country.”” I wonder how their self-control gets away from them when their railroads and harbours are put out of commission. Because that too is the outcome of a war you invoke, when the harbours are put to pasture because the are no longer reachable and when your railways are no longer deal with the trains as their tracks are inoperable al whilst revenue and defense settings are merely collecting dust as they have no place to go, how will their armies react? Sun Tzu states that this is a demoralizing setting and he gave us that in 500 BC, as such the writing if that reality is over 2500 years old. It might show to be an issue when Iran remains oblivious to the impact of that, but that is the nature of things. When awe see that these effect come into ply someone in the military will feign ignorance and the impact of that will be seen all over the world. Perhaps Iran will learn, but as they instigated all of this themselves I really doubt that they will learn anything.

Have a great day, a mere 120 minutes until breakfast.

Optionally sorting land abilities

I know, it sounds vague, but after I saw the news (at https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2026/3/19/iran-attacks-cut-17-of-qatars-lng-capacity-for-up-to-5-years-qatarenergy) where we are given ‘Iran warns it will show ‘zero restraint’ if infrastructure attacked again’, as such I am willing to take their anticipation out of their realm of options. I created IP for water and rails. So, I started to think “How can we disable land options?” Well, that is a lot harder then you think. Yes you can bomb the hell out of a road, but I am a precision tool. I often dislike blunt tools. So I started to think concerning their drone abilities. You see these ones that are being send all over Saudi Arabia, the UAE and Qatar come from the Shahed Aviation Industries in Isfahan. As such I started to think. These drones will be shipped in bulk to wherever they need to be operated. From Qatar that is 890 km, optionally it is a mere 322 km from the Sea of Dammam (aka Persian gulf) so now we have a tactical setting. Either they go part by road to Isfahan Shahid Beheshti International Airport and from there wherever they need to be. The idea started to form was based on previous IP is that trucks are easier to hit. I am not taking about missiles or RPG’s. The weakness of these trucks are the tires. So consider a lone drone dropping pellets no more than an inch in diameter. They are matted plastic balls containing crazy glue. The truck runs over these balls and the crazy glue is suddenly everywhere and for a second it will glue the tire to the road. It will take more than one pellet, but every pellet will rip these tires apart. One load should disable several trucks and there we see the benefit. Suddenly the IRGC will have to check every inch of every road where they travel. And where there is no tarmac, a rubber solving solution could be engaged, same effect different setting. It will not stop the drone stage, but now it is hindered by checks and safety settings. Optionally it is merely one cog in a system of attacks. And as they see optionally harbours and railway systems collapse. Iran will suddenly see the new setting where the gulf states give them a simple ultimatum: “Stop, or else” and I believe that Iran will suddenly see the light as they have never faced a three pronged attack in ways they never considered and it will not be coming from the United States. Suddenly they trade 2 enemies for 8 (UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Bahrain, Iraq and Oman are added) and those are Islamic enemies, but they had that coming. I am not pretending that this setting is perfect. This IP might only be used a few times at most, but now their deployment settings are hit with delay upon delay and that is a simple setting to start a larger stage.

So as we see “QatarEnergy chief says 17% of Qatar’s LNG export capacity knocked out in Iranian strike.” We can now bring the hurt to Iran in several ways and that is merely the beginning. We might applaud “The ONLY reason for restraint was respect for requested de-escalation,” Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi had written in a post on X on Thursday. “ZERO restraint if our infrastructures are struck again.”” I reckon that Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al-Thani will be on why side of thinking, but personally it is time to stop restraint as Iran is hitting out to anyone they can hit and taking their infrastructures away might be considered the effect of ‘Zero Restraint’ and as they are given into a sense of dread because when the rails, roads and harbours are no longer dependable as options, they will see that being isolated is a massive downturn. As I see it, no islamic nation is willing to ‘aide’ Iran in any way and they did this to themselves. But as we are considering the other setting (I gave an airfield solution on the near past) the idea that Isfahan Shahid Beheshti International Airport is pushed out of operation. The setting becomes dire for Iran. They can talk a good talk. But they need deployments and that is now largely prevented or at least it will be delayed to a larger effect that they are happy with and as I see it, it will reset the deployment of drones and I reckon that this will open up a few more options, that is the benefit of hitting a fluidic setting again and again.

Is my land solution perfect? No, it is not, but it is one way to enter sand into the IRGC cogs of terrorism. And who knows, I might have more ideas that could be deployed by the UAE, Saudi Arabia and Qatar. That too is the nice side of a creative mind. There is always another idea forming and some are even less useful, but. I learned that these might lead to greater innovation. Nintendo might have one disaster as they created the WiiU but that led to the Nintendo Switch which is one of the most successful systems as it sold 155.37 million units worldwide (up to now) and it is now the second best selling console in history. So, don’t knock what might at first be a failure, it could lead to the success that many desire.

So, have a great day and I will likely be back with more in about 15 hours.

Alleged confirmation Bravo

That is what I saw. It was less then an hour after the previous article, as such I thought it was essential to get this to you quicker than the usual grace period of 15-20 hours. First news I saw was Deutsche Welle (at https://www.dw.com/en/iran-war-trump-says-no-more-israeli-attacks-on-south-pars/live-76422645) where we see ‘Trump says no more Israeli attacks on South Pars’, so why would anyone keep the refineries save of their enemies? Sun Tzu in the Art of war gives us plenty of reasons to stop Iranian money sources. And the article gives us “US President Donald Trump has threatened to “blow up” Iran’s South Pars gas field if Tehran continues retaliatory strikes against Qatar. He also promised Israel would stop its attacks on South Pars.” So one is threatening to do harm, the other one is actually doing harm and that is now stopped? To me (which might be wrong) is the setting that the United States want what Iran has and they are willing to put boots on the ground to set these places safe for the United States. And all along the Strait of Hormuz is still closed (to some effect). So whilst the UAE, Saudi Arabia and Qatar remain under attack, others are cleaning their slate to get into the Iranian oil. And only 30 minutes ago we hear (via the Guardian) ‘Hegseth claims Trump ‘knew nothing’ about gasfield attack, declines to say when war will end’ as such we get a new setting. If this so called war is set in motion by the United States and Israel and these two do not talk strategy, what on earth is going on? As such I would like to call to attention Admiral Daryl L. Caudle, Chief of Naval Operations (CNO), General Randy George, the current Chief of Staff of the United States Army, General Kenneth S. Wilsbach, Chief of Staff of the United States Air Force and General Eric M. Smith, who serves as the Commandant of the Marine Corps to attention. Not because I mean them ill will, but what kind of military is Pete Hegseth making them out to be (this might be restricted to the commanders involved) and that is also up for debate. So when we are given by the Guardian “When asked by a reporter whether he felt Israel was pursuing its own objectives, in relation to the attack on Iran’s South Pars gasfield which Donald Trump said the US “knew nothing” about, Hegseth said: “We hold the cards. We have objectives. Those objectives are clear. We have allies pursuing objectives as well,” he added. He explained earlier in the press conference that the US’s objectives were to destroy Iran’s missiles, launchers, defence industrial base and navy, and for Tehran to never obtain nuclear weapon.” As I see it, there are no clear objectives, there is seemingly no clear communication and that is the mere start of this pile of stuff that makes the grass grow in Texas. I was in the mindset to destroy the capabilities of Iran (which I made available free of charge for both the UAE and Saudi Arabia. When you consider harbours and rails, Iran would be hindered immensely by taking those two out of the equation. There was also the need for someone to bomb the 10 refineries. Not threaten, just demolish these places. Refineries can be rebuilt (over time) and it would hinder Iran near completely and as these places are gone, its money spending days are over and as I see it, without money, there wold be a larger problem creating missiles and drones, they all cost money and resources. It might be oversimplified, but I am no longer in the army, actually I left the army before the Internet became a popular thing.

In addition we are given “Badr Albusaidi abandoned the usual reserve of diplomatic language to call the war a “catastrophe” and said Donald Trump’s administration had “lost control of its own foreign policy”. Albusaidi claimed the US and Iran had been “on the verge of a real deal” on Iran’s nuclear program twice over the last nine months, including in June last year when the process ended with Israeli-US attacks on the Islamic republic. He mediated a second round of indirect negotiations that resumed in Oman on February 6, with the final round held in Geneva on February 26. “It was a shock but not a surprise when on February 28th – just a few hours after the latest and most substantive talks – Israel and America again launched an unlawful military strike against the peace that had briefly appeared really possible,” Albusaidi wrote.” I cannot respond to this, but to see the accusation that the United States had “lost control of its own foreign policy” is troublesome to some degree. Badr bin Hamad Al Busaidi is the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Oman as such I reckon he knows a few things and an accusation of that degree is troublesome. At present as I see it, this falls in the corner of President Trump and Marco Rubio. As such this accusation falls on their turf. Now (only 6 minutes ago) we are given “We’ve just heard from Pete Hegseth. He reiterated the claim from Donald Trump that the US president knew nothing about the attack on Iran’s South Pars gasfield. However, Reuters is reporting that Israel says its attack on the gas facilities was coordinated with the United States. It cited three Israeli officials.” And weirdly enough I wonder how these 4 United States commanders would react as we have a setting with three alleged Israeli officials. So who are these officials? If they are luggage officials at Ben Gurion airport listening to their radios it is one thing, if it involves members of the Israeli air force or/and Mossad, it becomes a very different thing. As such what does Reuters have? I do not know the source as such it is all alleged and presumably. It is just my thought on that setting. 

All this might be my economic downfall, but that is also presumed and even as I have data going back years, it merely might have connection to military actions and it would all be so much easier if there was clear communication and clear communication between fighting allies. None of that seems to be in place at present and my view? What doe the commanders of the involved parties have to say? Because that is one track that the media has allegedly not been considering. As I see it, it is quite simple and you merely had to read the Art of War to realise this. The alternative is von Clausewitz with his version ‘On War’ but I personally liked the Sun Tzu version better and it was written centuries before the other version. 

Perhaps I oversimplified the setting. Have a great day, it just became Friday for me (45 minute ago).

Where is the trust?

That is most of the time the setting, so as ABC gives us (at https://www.abc.net.au/news/2026-03-17/middle-east-live-updates-march-17-2026/106462358) “A tanker has been struck by an unknown projectile while anchored near the Strait of Hormuz. Earlier, US President Donald Trump turned his ire on European allies who he claimed “weren’t that enthusiastic” about helping the US secure the passage. The threat of Iranian missiles and drones targeting oil tankers in the strait has effectively closed the shipping channel, amid the country’s conflict with the US and Israel.” With the added ‘Rockets and drones fired at US Embassy in Baghdad’ an hour ago. Consider that President Trump gave us (on march 8th, Politico) ‘Trump says Starmer seeking to join Iran war ‘after we’ve already won’’ so, that was 9 days ago? What changed? Then yesterday, the Guardian gives us (at https://www.theguardian.com/world/live/2026/mar/16/iran-war-live-updates-news-oil-trump-hormuz-dubai-airport-israel-targets) “As Donald Trump expresses frustration with countries declining to send warships to reopen the strait of Hormuz, the response remains muted among those he directly called upon.” And this happened a mere 4 hours ago. Where are the vessels of the United States? Where are their minesweepers? Simple questions and it defies knowledge why this is not front and centre everywhere. So when the Sydney Morning Herald adds spice to the setting (at https://www.smh.com.au/world/north-america/with-10-damning-words-pete-hegseth-says-the-quiet-part-out-loud-20260314-p5oafr.html) with ‘With 10 damning words, Pete Hegseth says the quiet part out loud’ where we see “US Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth believes the media has not been sufficiently effusive about the success of the American military operation against Iran.

He had just finished speaking about the massive damage inflicted upon the regime in Tehran – its leadership, its missile stocks, its navy, its weapons infrastructure – when he turned his attention to the Pentagon press pack.” Now, I am willing to accept that I have not been part of any defence department for 43 years. I can assure you that a certain clarity is required in communication (from the defence side) and whilst I feel ready to blame the press on several matters, they are massively without blame here. The March 8th setting was the first damning setting. Then as I yesterday lighted on the ‘Just for fun’ setting that President Trump gave us and whilst the tactical setting that Kharg Island provides a sea port for the export of up to 90% of Iran’s oil products, as well as supplying storage for up to 30 million barrels. Bombing the hell out of it might have been essential, but it is a mere export point. There are 10 refineries doing the bidding of capturing oil and whilst I was able to device methods of stopping those settings, the clear message is to bomb those 10 locations to really put pressure on Iran. So when were they done? No, As I personally see it, President Trump what’s that oil this is the clear setting that is tactically seen and now that 2,500-5,000 boots are getting on the ground, that setting becomes the pressure point that Iran can put on the United States. So whilst I created IP to close harbours and disable trains, stopping the bulk of oil transits, it was merely one stage that Saudi Arabia, Qatar and the UAE could do to take pressure away from themselves and as such I gave Saudi Arabia and the UAE that IP. I did my thing to stop the war to go towards the gulf states. 

So what are we now left with?

Well, the SMH also takes care of that. We are given “As former CNN Pentagon reporter Barbara Starr noted, it’s possible that Ellison will be none-too-pleased about Hegseth’s implications.

Starr, a 21-year veteran of the defence beat, pointed out on X that CNN has sent personnel to combat zones for decades, with some even losing their lives. “You have a legal and moral obligation to defend the free press, even the ones you don’t personally like,” she told Hegseth.

As a former TV presenter before he was tasked with running the world’s most powerful military, press freedom should be Hegseth’s instinct. His comments today – and his vainglorious move to banish press photographers from his briefings – suggest he sees the media more as a vassal to serve his interests.” I can get behind that thought. As such there are sides to this entire setting that aren’t reported on this enough. The first one was that no formal declaration of war was ever given by the United States. As such we were given: “the Trump administration officials have offered various and conflicting explanations for the war, such as to ward off an imminent Iranian threat, to pre-empt Iranian retaliation against US assets after an expected Israeli attack on Iran” My issue here is that the international courts in The Hague might side with Iran concerning the seemingly unprovoked attacks by Iran (I know that is hilarious), Iran has been waging proxy wars for decades and that is the power of a proxy war. I reckon that the attacks by Israel and the United States give a bitter taste in the eyes of the law. Israel is decently clear because of all the attacks by Iran via Hamas and Hezbollah, but the idea given “to ward off an imminent Iranian threat” is laughable. It is like New Zealand attacking Australia, the Sopwith Camel doesn’t have the range to cross that distance and as far as I know New Zealand does not have an aircraft carrier. The same applies to Iran. There is no way that an attack can result from Iran. Even Lone Wolf attacks are unlikely to succeed and the United States still has their boy-scout organisations (FBI, CIA, DIA) in place, as such they can either do their job or they cannot. 

As such my speculative view was that the United States needed the oil that Iran has (for now). After failing to get to Canada’s rare earths (the 51st state attempt), Greenland resources (through failed annexation) and Venezuela oil (which is seem simply useless to the United States) the United States are now going for the Iranian oil. After that merely Russian oil remains (and Ukraine is doing something about that too) so what is left? I might be wrong in all this and there is a simple way to show me I am wrong. Merely bomb the 10 refineries. Several sources seemed to side with me on this as we are given ‘GOP Sen. Lindsey Graham Brags ‘We Are Going to Make a Ton of Money’ on Iran War’, which was given to us on March 9th. So as we were given “Graham seemingly suggested that the conflict with Iran as well as President Donald Trump’s abduction of Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro aim to help the United States take control over major oil reserves. “Venezuela and Iran have 31% of the world’s oil reserves. We’re going to have a partnership with 31% of the known reserves. This is China’s nightmare. This is a good investment,” he said.” As well as ““We’re going to blow the hell out of these people,” Graham said, adding that “nobody will threaten [the U.S.] in the Strait of Hormuz again.” He also said there could be a collapse of Iran’s leadership. “This regime is in a death throe now, it is gonna be on its knees, it’s going to fall, and when it falls we’re going to have peace like no other time,” he added.” It seems that after 9 days he was proven on nearly all fronts and now that it is out in the open that the United States needs oil (because they have so little at present) there is now the setting that the United States are too broke to seemingly pay their bills and as I see it, the moment the boots come on the ground, the media will report on nearly everything and that will put team Trump/Hegseth in a new folly and in the limelight, Because if I can figure this out in the last decade and now we get that Dave Kelly (JP Morgan, as per OCT2025) can figure this out, you should wonder why others couldn’t figure this out. I get that I am a no one in all this, but David Kelly is the Chief Global Strategist and Head of the Global Market Insights Strategy Team of JP Morgan and he is a voice to consider no matter how you slice it. 

So whilst we now get the Guardian (read: recently) give us “March 2026, Hegseth stated during a press briefing that US forces in Iran would show “no quarter, no mercy” to enemies. Analysts and Sen. Mark Kelly pointed out that a “no quarter” order—meaning to take no prisoners and kill them instead—is a direct violation of international law, specifically Article 23(d) of the 1907 Hague Convention IV.” All whilst media like the Conversation give us “Legal scholars have argued that Hegseth’s actions, particularly regarding the Venezuelan boat strikes and statements on the Iranian conflict, could expose him to investigations for violations of international and U.S. criminal law.” As such I reckon that both President Trump and Pete Hegseth fear the international courts. Iran optionally have a case here (I rely on optional as they have done plenty of bad things, among them attack Saudi Arabia without a formal declaration of war), so it makes sense that Pete Hegseth is in the stage that he wants to trivialize the international courts of law in the Hague, which is set through “The International Court of Justice, or colloquially the World Court, is the principal judicial organ of the United Nations (UN). It settles legal disputes submitted to it by states and provides advisory opinions on legal questions referred to it by other UN organs and specialized agencies. The ICJ is the only international court that adjudicates general disputes between countries, with its rulings and opinions serving as primary sources of international law. It is one of the six principal organs of the United Nations.” It was established in 1945 and it should now confuse all the readers on why António Guterres remains silent on this. It merely gives my thoughts on the United States being broke seeming validity. The person who attacks Israel at any option he gets, remained silent on too many settings we are seeing here. Even the rebuke on the settings of Pete Hegseth ‘attacking’ the international courts should have put him up in arms. There is the smallest notion that the media had not covered it, but I doubt that. As I see it, the seat that António Guterres hold is seen as one of the 100 most powerful seats in the world. It might not be as powerful as that uncomfortable seat that the pope has, but that would be a buttock conversation. 

So I think I have given you something to think about and consider why the bulk of the refineries are left untouched, because that creates the wealth of Iran and isn’t that the superiority of any army? We are given “Sun Tzu’s The Art of War emphasizes that the supreme art of war is to subdue the enemy without fighting, making the destruction of an opponent’s economic base (or wealth of a nation) a superior strategy to direct physical conflict. Sun Tzu advises that a protracted war exhausts a state’s resources, dulls weapons, and dampens morale, meaning attacking an opponent’s economic ability to sustain a fight is crucial.” And I wrote about that on March 8th (and before that too, at https://lawlordtobe.com/2026/03/08/ones-creative-process/) the story ‘Ones creative process’ gave you the setting that the harbours and railway of Iran should be destroyed and I was happy to hand the IP that could set that in a certain view of certainty to both Saudi Arabia and the UAE. Because I am just that sort of guy. It is never about personal profit in some stage of war and these two countries were hammered with drones and missiles. As such I did more than talk (are you watching this Pete Hegseth), I delivered. 

So you all have a great day and enjoy the day because Vancouver just joined us this Tuesday.

Keep this in mind

As I was looking at ‘the news’ a few things hit me. The first one was the Guardian (at https://www.theguardian.com/world/2026/mar/11/the-shine-has-been-taken-off-dubai-faces-existential-threat-as-foreigners-flee-conflict) where we see ‘‘The shine has been taken off’: Dubai faces existential threat as foreigners flee conflict’ I have to disagree as I have seen some crypto boys run for their lives, but they don’t amount to anything. The internet (Youtube specifically) is flooding with people enjoying life in Abu Dhabi (Dubai too). So when I read “leaving beach bars, malls and hotels eerily empty” This gives me the mind on how it was a year ago? You see, Islamic nations are in the middle of Ramadan, as such these places are massively empty during the day and I reckon that malls have a similar standing. I wonder what the attempt was by writer Hannah Ellis-Petersen (who claims to be in Dubai). I am not saying that is a lie (or an exaggeration) I am merely asking how the public goes to the places during Ramadan. I guess that some families would avoid Dubai and Abu Dhabi during these settings but to see “They are among the tens of thousands of residents and tourists that have fled Dubai since the US and Israel launched joint strikes on Iran almost two weeks ago.” I get that tourists are not in the ‘appeasing’ setting towards the hostilities of Iran and I get that. As I personally have Abu Dhabi on my bucket list (preferably intact) I still hope to see this place before my corpus delicti kicks the bucket (not the one with the list). It happens some cards fall out of reach, but I still hope that I will see this place, preferably staying at the Warner Brothers hotel and seeing my youthful idol Joker (Batman too). Still, the setting we are given “The Fairmont hotel, located on Dubai’s famed artificial palm tree-shaped island, home to mega-mansions, lavish hotels and upmarket beach clubs, was also dramatically hit.” Yet I also learned a few days ago that it had a mere $550 damage, as such what is this “dramatically hit” the Guardian is talking about? So when we get “I don’t want to be in Dubai any more, there is no business, we are earning nothing since this war, and I don’t see the tourism coming back. A lot of taxi drivers like me, we are thinking to go to a different country now. Everybody knows that Dubai is finished.”” I have no idea what that pussy was that was talking about, but I don’t believe that Dubai is finished. Neither are Abu Dhabi and Sharjah. If my IP works Saudi Arabia and the UAE will have plenty of damage to do to Iran and they should, because they were attacked by Iran. 

As such the setting intensifies and the hollow word from President Trump need to be ignored. As such I was thinking about the mines in the Strait of Hormuz. A thought had come to my mind. You see, there is a setting we ignore, there are different ways of detecting mines. But have lasers been used? You see, there todays lasers are a lot faster and consider the setting:

Now consider that no one looked at mines for the longest of times (as far as I know) and here we see a laser scanning to the bottom of the sea, it will not do so in a mere line. It can use arcs going up and down, the idea is that this is done with GPS and more accurate maps (which already exists) and now that mine shows up ‘brightly’ considering the setting with DML, mapping solutions and powerful computers, I personally feel that this should be a setting of easy. Peasy, chicken easy (I could be wrong). I haven’t worked on disposing, but I reckon the Navies of the world already have a setting here and I feel bad at reinventing the wheel. So this is the setting I currently see. So what is taking the United States nay this long? They had enough time to consider that and as President Trump stated that they have already won, this setting should not exist. 

So then we get to The Hill (at https://thehill.com/business/5779706-iran-qatar-financial-institutions/) where we see ‘Banks evacuate, close offices in Qatar, Dubai after Iran threatens attacks’ which is weird as the war is already won (isn’t it?) So as we get “Several banks urged their employees to evacuate offices in Qatar and the United Arab Emirates on Wednesday as Iran threatens to launch strikes on financial institutions. HSBC has closed all its branches in Qatar until further notice, citing safety precautions in a text message sent to clients, Reuters reported.” We can conclude that the United States hasn’t won anything and now the setting changes, because (as others have stated already) it seems that the United States seemingly cannot protect anyone in the gulf states. As such my other ideas will likely gain speed soon enough. So we get back to the Hill article where we also see “Citigroup and Standard Chartered also told their staff in Dubai to work from home amid the regional conflict, according to a memo reviewed by Reuters. 

Goldman Sachs issued the same warning to employees based at their offices in the Dubai International Financial Centre, Bloomberg reported.” This I can agree with, if it is possible to work from home, that setting might be preferable to many. It kinda sucks if you need to get things done at a bank, but a lot can be done by ATM and the UAE have plenty of those around. And as the Guardian also gives us ‘Iran escalates attacks on infrastructure and transport networks across the Gulf’ (at https://www.theguardian.com/world/2026/mar/11/iran-escalates-attacks-on-infrastructure-and-transport-networks-across-the-gulf) where we see “Iran dramatically escalated its strategy of striking civilian infrastructure and transport networks across the Gulf on Wednesday, attacking commercial ships and targeting Dubai’s international airport as US and Israeli warplanes launched new waves of strikes on the Islamic Republic.” I believe that time has come for the UAE and Saudi Arabia take the fight to Iran, there are 10 major operating oil refineries, take these out and there won’t be any money rolling into Iran any day soon. No matter what others say, they brought the war to the Gulf States and as such there will be a reconning as I personally see it. At least 5 nations were unprovoked under attack. I say two refineries each to quench the feeling of vendetta. There is no after Ramadan, Iran is attacking now, return is required and to honor Ramadan, these nations have sunset to sunrise to make Iran consider the hollow acts they performed on them. Seems fair doesn’t it?

Are there more actions that could be done? Well, my IP takes care of their infrastructure and they could be released on other targets too, but I don’t want to callously attack civilians (I don’t want to be seen as an Iranian), I believe that hurting the infrastructure as I saw it will cause months of delays and it will cost millions to set right and as I took in account land, sea and air. I think I have done my good deed for both Saudi Arabia and the UAE. I am sorry to say that I am not doing that from Abu Dhabi, but we all have our hardships, mine is on Sydney. 

Only 5 hours ago, we get a quote from CBS ‘Trump vows to end war soon as Iran hits ships, threatens banks, and toll on U.S. forces emerges’, which is weird, because he told the PM of the United Kingdom that the war was already won, so something is amiss and I am playing the fool here with intent. You see, to make him show his real colors the Gulf stated merely have to take the 10 refineries out of the equation. I am a devious devil (Lucifer Morningstar told me that himself) and there are at least three little snippet hidden in this story. So whilst CBS gives us “The speed and extent of the damage have so concerned Iran and Lebanon that they sent a request to the United Nations’ cultural agency, UNESCO, this week to add more sites to its enhanced protection list.” I think that this is a bogus act and should be ignored. The setting here is simple as Iran attacks civilian targets in Saudi Arabia, UAE, Iraq, Qatar and a few other places. They should not be able to ask for any protection, they started this they can lose whatever is hit. But that might be the anger speaking in me. So when we consider the CBS story (at https://www.cbsnews.com/live-updates/iran-war-us-israel-strait-of-hormuz-ship-attacks-persian-gulf-drones-missiles/) A setting that could evolve, but as long as Iran keeps on attacking other nations that never allowed for the United States to launch any attacks against Iran, others can attack Iranian targets as much as they can, but that might merely be my view on the matter.

Have a great day you all.

How some see this

That happens, not everyone sees things like me and that is OK. It is the setting of freedom of perspective and as we see that this is not a mere 1-2 people, but a multitude of people, we get a setting where a dozen people give an average view to the settings in the world. Still, some are not on the field and I was introduced to this yesterday (or is that mere hours ago). I saw Arab News giving us ‘UAE, Qatar reject Bloomberg reports on defense capabilities’ and as Bloomberg is behind a paywall, I cannot say what they give us. Yet we see “The UAE and Qatar have rejected Bloomberg’s reporting on their defensive capabilities, describing the claims as inaccurate and misleading. In a statement, the UAE Ministry of Foreign Affairs said the report did not reflect the country’s level of preparedness, technological sophistication or operational readiness. It said the UAE operates diverse, integrated and multi-layered air defense systems capable of countering a full spectrum of aerial threats, including long, medium and short-range systems that provide comprehensive protection of national airspace.” And in this I offer 

Consider that Iran fired 1184 drones into the UAE, this costs Iran on average $29,600,000. The prices of a Shahed drone is set between $20K and $50K, so I set the value at $25K, the UAE caught over 93% before they could do any damage. And as we ‘trust’ some influencers with:

[emotional Influencer] I am here near the Palm Jumeirah where we hear people screaming and we see the flames of a drone impacting the hotel, see the flames in the background. The chaos is still evolving. 

We get the other side:

[deadpan analyst] (this is me) One of the $25,000 drones hit a hotel in Jumeirah Palm, the total damage is set to an estimated $550 dollar, no people were harmed or killed by that drone. As you can see, 100% of the cruise missiles were intercepted and 99% of the ballistic missiles were also destroyed, 2 of the 200 hit the UAE. As far as we can tell, the UAE defence capabilities are top notch. No one can tell me why Iran attacked the UAE as no hostile action were set against Iran. Life in Dubai and Abu Dhabi go on as it always has been, peaceful and now almost relaxed. 

There is a problem with the way that the news is given in regard to the settings of this one sided war against the UAE, as the UAE is still in a stage where there should be talks, Iran keeps on attacking it without provocation. More in later news. 

As I see it, the setting for my idea given (at https://lawlordtobe.com/2026/02/01/sinking-a-dilemma/) called ‘Sinking a dilemma’ is now gaining speed as Iran is closing of the Strait of Hormuz. It seems that my canal is averting that danger and avoiding the strength Iran has in the strait and from there we see the Iranian setting to be diminishing sooner than snow melting in a volcano. Although the canal is not built yet, I have no doubt that it would push UAE economic benefits stronger and larger. 

And the UAE is not alone, Iran has made unprovoked attacks on Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman and Iraq and the world is not asking why these holy nations were attacked. As far as I can see, the only ‘valid’ targets for Iran at present are the United States of America and Israel. We could also project that American targets in the gulf states are not valid as these gulf nations have not given the USA any clearance to attack Iran from these bases. 

Some will see this different as Iran is the head of the Axis of evil, but there was never a formal declaration of war, making this a debatable issue and as I see it, the United Nations is not calling back the USA (or Israel) and that might be the weirdest part yet.

So at present, I cannot see how the Bloomberg report would have anything negative to add to this, In America they were unable to stop 3 passenger flights from hitting New York and Washington DC. As such 3 versus 1397 is a very different setting and speculative as I see it Bloomberg needs to apologise to both Qatar and the UAE, but that would merely be me. So as we contemplate the level of preparedness and technological sophistication of the UAE, it is seemingly top notch.

Have a great day and if you are in the Dubai Mall enjoy a lovely coffee, or perhaps a Street ice cream. It apparently is warm enough to enjoy some ice cream. It will be nice and sunny there in less than 12 hours.
