My prediction is "breaking news" by tomorrow morning.
And... And...
Somebody is gonna get "Slammed"
There may be "Bombshells" - possibly Carpet Bombshells (slightly used)
It could go from "Breaking News" straight to "Broken News"
Stay frosty... but cozy

It's more likely that they closed airspace because the Goodyear blimp was doing a flyover advertising Coke and McDonald's... because clown world never ceases to amaze...
No strike groups available. Not gonna happen for at least a month. Sorry to disappoint.
Government shutdown about to happen as well. So probably 2 months.
Maybe we can get some action and arrests of the terrorists in the DC swamp tho.
You saw how quick the Venezuela take down was… not sure the shutdown would be much of a factor here.
As far as forces, the teams that went into Caracas was very small, and given we have troops in Western Europe, Middle East and those are the ones we know about.
Could happen immediately IMHO, sorry to disappoint.
Flying into Venezuela and nabbing Maduro is a far sight different than flying into Iran and trying to nab the Ayatollah.
First, the Ayatollah has about a dozen imams that would need to be grabbed at the same time, too. These are the clerics responsible with promoting and enforcing the Ayatollahs edicts. His "clerics in waiting," so to speak, that would be ready to fill in if we were to attempt a smash-grab, or capture-kill op. Second, the Iranian Republican Guard is a highly trained, very well funded fanatical and highly brainwashed group of true believers. Ask anyone who went up against true believers in Afghanistan how hard they fight. Most of our casualties in both Iraq and Afghanistan were to true believers, especially in Fallujah, Ramadi, Karkuk, Lashkargah, etc. The IRGC is trained to fight to the death using any and all available means. They helped create and train the true believers in IS. They helped create, organize, fund, and train the true believers in Iraq and Afghanistan, and they almost singlehandedly created Hamas and Hezbollah. I say almost because we know that the [DS] had a hand in it, too, but how much involvement the [DS] had in that is up for debate.
Also, flying into the interior of Iran is trickier because while it is a mountainous country, several of it's larger cities lie in fairly large valleys, so flying there would be hard, as they have a radar system that is set at different altitudes to help defend against an aerial incursion. Where we had the element of surprise coming off the water and the U.S. homeland in Venezuela, an aerial incursion into Iran would be considerably more complicated because they'd see the build up and would know it's coming, so they would have the benefit of time on their side. They also have a vastly more sophisticated radar net than Venezuela, AND they have the support of both Russia and CCP China, moreso than Maduro had.
Lastly, the IRGC will not hesitate to take civilians hostage by the thousands, if need be. Imagine what the Left, Rinos, and Globalists would say and try to do to Trump if he were to just start a bombing offensive, or surgical strikes on IRGC emplacements that are also holding hostages, or attempt a capture-kill on Khameini or his leading goons. The blowback would be so etching I don't think even Trump would want here at home and would definitely lead to a trouncing at the midterm elections. And that, we simply cannot afford at the moment.
Sorry, but the Iranians are gonna have to do this mostly on their own. We can send in some, as in a relative few in number to help coordinate and organize an armed resistance movement, and we can even help fund, arm, supply and maybe help train that movement, but there's way too many in the Iranian National Police and IRGC that are true believers that make it very hard for us to launch any offensives of our own. And I don't know hink there's too many Tier-1 units willing to take that chance right now. Especially to go in and take the time to help train an armed resistance/revolutionary force. It would take months, is financially costly, and dangerous because you have to take into account Irans vast network of citizen spies who wouldnt hesitate to rat out people out just to save their own skins. That's something that would already have to be in place, and there simply aren't any rumors or whispers of that right now, which tells me that's not a thing yet.
What I think is happening is that the Ayatollah and the IRGC has locked down the airpsace to help prevent an aerial incursion from taking place. They've announced that's what this is. So there's no reason to believe otherwise.
Do I think the WH elements of C_A, MI-6, and Mossad are there helping stoke the flames of rebellion in Iran? Yes, I do. But will we, or our allies be sending active duty members of our militaries in to fight? No, I do not. The risks are too great. There's too many rat-fink politicians in our countries to even attempt such a thing at the moment.
We’ll see won’t we?
Am gonna sticky this into a mega thread fot everything Iran related, just in case we have "habbenings".

Thanks bb!
search the whole web and tell me if Trump is going to attack iran
Grok: As of January 14, 2026, there is no definitive confirmation that President Donald Trump will order a military attack on Iran. However, tensions are extremely high amid ongoing anti-government protests in Iran, a violent crackdown by Iranian forces that has reportedly killed thousands, and Trump's repeated threats to intervene if the regime continues harming protesters.
Recent reports indicate mixed signals: Trump stated today that he has been informed the "killing in Iran is stopping" with "no plan for executions," and his administration is taking a "watch and see" approach without ruling out potential action.
At the same time, U.S. officials have begun withdrawing some nonessential personnel from Middle Eastern bases (such as Al Udeid in Qatar) as a precaution, while Western military sources describe "all signals" pointing to an imminent U.S. strike—possibly within 24 hours—amid Iran's warnings of retaliation against American assets in the region.
Real-time discussions on X reflect similar uncertainty and speculation. Some users note Iranian airspace appearing unusually clear (potentially signaling preparations), while others highlight Arab nations like Saudi Arabia lobbying the U.S. against a strike and reports of European allies warning of action soon.
Theories range from a limited "in-and-out" operation targeting key figures like Ayatollah Khamenei to suggestions of a staged or symbolic response to allow the regime to save face.
A recent poll also shows a majority of U.S. voters opposing such a strike, viewing Trump's foreign policy as overly aggressive.
This situation is fluid and fast-moving, with unpredictability cited as part of the Trump administration's strategy.
Iran has escalated rhetoric, including threats to assassinate Trump and strike U.S. bases, while blaming the U.S. and Israel for fueling the protests.
If an attack does occur, reports suggest it could target Iran's nuclear sites, ballistic missiles, or Revolutionary Guard facilities, building on prior U.S. actions like last year's strikes.
Perplexity: There is no public confirmation that Trump is going to attack Iran, but reporting shows the U.S. is actively considering military options and repositioning forces, so the risk of some kind of strike is real but uncertain.
What is actually happening right now U.S. officials say Trump is reviewing military options in response to Iran’s lethal crackdown on protesters, including possible strikes on nuclear or missile sites, internal security forces, or cyber operations.
The Pentagon has moved some U.S. personnel and equipment out of key bases, including Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar, as a precaution in case Iran retaliates if the U.S. attacks.
Iran has publicly warned it would retaliate against U.S. bases, ships, and possibly Israel if attacked, vowing a “decisive” response.
How to interpret this These moves clearly show Washington is seriously weighing a strike and wants forces dispersed and protected if things escalate.
However, officials indicate that any action would likely be days away at minimum, and there are also non-kinetic options (like cyberattacks) and more limited targets on the table.
Because decisions are made in a small classified circle and can change quickly, no source can reliably say “yes, he will” or “no, he won’t” at this moment—only that the probability is higher than normal given the posture and public threats
Remember last year when Trump said we'd be hearing about Iran "very soon" and then crickets? He went dark on it and there was really nothing until recently.
I can’t keep up with everything happening. Thanks for sharing.
I just saw this on a facebook page called Donald Trump (I think for president). I don’t follow it. Came here to see if it was true.
THE AIRSPACE IS CLOSING — AND THAT ONLY HAPPENS BEFORE SOMETHING BIG
This is not noise. This is not rumor. This is procedure.
Lufthansa has told its crews to prepare to leave Israel and is canceling flights starting tomorrow.
Airlines do not make decisions like this based on headlines. They don’t move crews and ground aircraft because of social media chatter.
They do it when security briefings cross a threshold.
Tim Pool is a paid shill cunt
💯
He mad at the world because he cannot grow hair on top of his head. He appeals to people that have CDLs.
Pentagon is now moving the troops who were ordered to leave the airbase earlier today back to the base...

24 hour rule folks. This was a big ropadope.
Iran closed its airspace. But, I think it will be back open in a few hours. Everyone is getting too excited anticipating something to happen - including the IRGC. Reports of jets on the border of Iran/Iraq. The IRGC aired several of their own ancient MIGs - so I would not be surprised if that is what everyone was hearing. As far as I can tell, so far nothing has happened. People are a little too anxious. However, this is exactly the way Trump likes it. Keeps everyone guessing.
IRGC is moving massive amounts of money out of the country and routing through Dubai. It sounds like they may be getting ready to bail. Sit back and watch the show.
Well if Tim is pushing this, then his controllers have told him to say so.
battleships moving...

hmmm maybe I was premature? my bad. https://x.com/NiohBerg/status/2011530389287026801
Sec. Bessent reveals that Iranian leadership is moving their money OUT of Iran. They are abandoning ship.

this is disturbing. put on that tin foil hat https://x.com/TruthZone/status/2011354826148311192
They are coming from all sides, headed for Iran. Six US tankers have taken off from Al Udeid airbase in Qatar. Can you say FAFO? America is going to SAVE the Iranian people.

looks like these guys are on tonight. Agenda Free TV. watched them cover riots and the first Iran bombing
nice flex lol
AMK Mapping, [15/01/2026 11:52 am] Iran has issued a NOTAM, closing its airspace to all civilian aircraft.
Missile defences have been put on their highest alert, with air defence reportedly ordered to shoot down any aircraft entering their airspace without prior identification.
AMK Mapping, [15/01/2026 11:54 am] Heavy Israeli fighter jet activity in northern Israel. Iranian fighter jets have also taken off.
AMK Mapping, [15/01/2026 11:59 am] Explosions were heard in multiple cities in Iraq from fighter jets breaking the sound barrier.
It’s unclear who these aircraft belong to.
AMK Mapping, [15/01/2026 12:18 pm] This doesn’t necessarily mean there will be an American/Israeli attack on Iran today.
Reports suggest that a U.S. strike carrier group led by the USS Abraham Lincoln is redeploying from the South China Sea to CENTOM’s area of responsibility in the Middle East, and will take around 6 days to get there.
How does bombing prevent Iran's retaliation against protesters on the streets.
I'm not an expert by any means, but I think the idea is to remove command and control. Without leaders, the military/police lose centralized communication, coordination and intelligence sharing. Then it's only a matter of time before the regime crumbles into disarray.
