A friend of mine is a keen aircraft photographer and was around Lakenheath and Mildenhall yesterday. Apparently a number of F-22s arrived...

They USAF've been flying over here for Mildenhall at around midnight for the last couple of nights. A few people looked up what was making the noise on flight trackers.

At Mildenhall you'll be getting tankers too.

EDIT: just spotted you've posted an incoming tanker!

I think the F-22s will be keeping the F-15s and F-35s company at Lakenheath.

Of course, the prosthetics ban.

They're saving them for the expected casualties. Even the Pentagon is expecting a shitshow.

But only the losers will need prosthetics.

To paraphrase Jimmy Carr, they could still win bigly at the next Paralympics.

Modi is in Israel till tomorrow which, some have suggested, means that the Yanks going at Iran would be a diplomatically bad idea.

Purim is the evening of Monday through Tuesday and this, allegedly and according to the sages, would be a great time to set the fireworks ablaze.

Either which way, Trump seems hell bent on another killing-spree, and there is not much anyone can do about that in the longer run.

Meantime, the price of Gold remains stable.

They're baaaaaaaack!

Meanwhile, Hillary Clinton tells it like it is.

In her opening statement, Clinton excoriated the proceedings as “designed to protect one political party and one public official, rather than to seek truth and justice for the victims and survivors”.

Referencing her own career campaigning against sex trafficking, she added: “If this committee is serious about learning the truth about Epstein’s trafficking crimes, it would not rely on press gaggles to get answers from our current president on his involvement; it would ask him directly under oath about the tens of thousands of times he shows up in the Epstein files."
