The United States military announced Tuesday that its forces had struck and destroyed 16 of Iran’s minelayers near the Strait of Hormuz. The claim was made amid mounting concern that the Islamic Republic was preparing to deploy mines in the crucial waterway. The figure of 16 vessels comes from U.S. Central Command, which posted an accompanying 34-second video clip showing some of the strikes. President Donald Trump had given a lower figure in a social media post a short time earlier. “I am pleased to report that within the last few hours, we have hit, and completely destroyed, 10 inactive…

This article was originally published by Mike Adams at Natural News.  Introduction I have watched, analyzed, and reported on geopolitical shifts for decades, but what we are witnessing in March 2026 is not just another conflict. It is the final, convulsive act of a dying American empire. On February 28, President Donald Trump, in concert with Israel, launched Operation Epic Fury — a massive air campaign aimed at regime change in Iran [1]. The administration frames this as a decisive, necessary stroke. But from my perspective, this war was lost before the first missile was fired. The outcome guarantees a seismic…

Harry was a lean, angular man who had the nose of a beagle for fish, especially tuna. During his days at Montauk, he stirred up storms of excitement and comment by big-city rod and gun columnists. It was Harry who discovered the famous “Rosie’s Ledge” giant-tuna grounds and instigated what amounted to a revolution among East Coast big-game fishermen. Yet…

As the Iran war intensifies, the United States ruling class, headed by Donald Trump, refuses to rule out a military draft. White House spokesperson Karoline Leavitt said that Trump “keeps his options on the table” when asked about the possibility of conscription. Why Military Conscription Is Worse Than Slavery The White House’s Rapid Response team denied plans for a draft, writing on X of Leavitt, “She didn’t say anything close to this. You just made it up.” Technically, she did not say that there were plans for a draft, but she did say that the ruling class won’t rule it…

After decades of relying on Vietnam-era designs, the Army has approved the first offensive hand grenade to enter the service since 1968.The new M111 Offensive Hand Grenade was approved for full material release this year, the Army announced Tuesday in a statement. The new grenade relies primarily on blast overpressure rather than fragmented inner pieces to incapacitate, making it better suited for close-quarters combat inside of buildings, bunkers and tunnels. Full material release allows the Army to field the weapon across the force after testing has confirmed that it meets safety and performance requirements. The approval lets the Army move…

Days before the U.S. military unleashed Operation Epic Fury against Iran, the second highest-ranking military officer was touring a new 30,000-square-foot child development center for military children in Arlington, Virginia, and praising the new effort to quickly meet military families’ needs amidst the persistent shortage of child care. The center – and two others like it in the pilot program under contract with the nonprofit Armed Services YMCA – are being opened with “lightning speed,” said Vice Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Gen. Christopher J. Mahoney, at a ribbon cutting ceremony for the center, expected to open by…

Lee figured the weather change would push pre-spawn bass out from shallow water and into deeper areas near the mouths of creeks, and they hit the water around 6:30 that morning. “We started hunting for big bass using [forward-facing] sonar, and we found some nice ones,” Lee tells Outdoor Life. “The bass had moved out from the shallows, and…

Christian nationalism has been on full display, culminating with the murder of Charlie Kirk last year. Religious freedom groups are now receiving complaints that the Christian Nationalist ruling class has told soldiers that the war with Iran is “all part of God’s divine plan.” JD Vance Doubles Down On Christian Nationalism Psyop Continues: Christian Nationalism on the Rise Freedom of religion and freedom from religion are both important if we expect to have a free society. People cannot and should not be expected to live under religious seclusion, especially if they aren’t harming anyone else. However, U.S. military commanders have been…
