#Trump just keeps #killing #Americans
The #US announced another death of a service member as it launched more #airstrikes at #Iran Sunday in “response” to the killing of US troops, & Iran fired missiles toward #Jordan that risked widening the conflict into neighboring #Israel.
The US military said the service member was killed in #Iraq Saturday during a “controlled detonation” [doesn’t sound controlled] of a downed Iranian drone.

While other routes still are open, the #US strikes could expand further, potentially disrupting both the movement of military materiel & goods needed for #Iran’s 90 million people.
CENTCOM said it hit dozens of targets in its latest airstrikes, which concluded at dawn Friday, the 6th night in a row of US attacks.

Democratic Sen #TimKaine of Virginia pressed #Rubio on why the #US #military’s targeting criteria for attacking alleged drug #boats in Latin American waters DO NOT INCLUDE DRUGS ON THE BOAT. Kaine described it as “odd” before adding that he can’t share much more because the targeting criteria are classified.

#Defense Secy Pete #Hegseth & #JointChiefs of Staff Chair Gen #DanCaine have begun a briefing at the #Pentagon, to discuss the #US #war with #Iran.
Yesterday, #Trump declined to say if the “ceasefire” between the US & Iran remains in place, after both sides fired shots in the #StraitOfHormuz.
Iran has attacked US forces >10 times since the ceasefire went into effect, but that is “below the threshold” for the US to restart combat ops, Gen Dan Caine said Tues.

The inspiration is the 19th cent #MonroeDoctrine that prioritized #USsupremacy in the #WesternHemisphere & which #Trump has embraced & renamed the “#DonroeDoctrine.”
Experts say that while the revival of this playbook may have unnerved some #US #allies, it could also serve the interests of #Russia, locked in a war in #Ukraine, a former Soviet republic, & #China, which has long had its sights set on #Taiwan.

Hurlburt cited a retired #US general who viewed the #Trump White House move in #Venezuela & its fixation on #Greenland as reminiscent of teenagers playing the geostrategic board game Risk.
