Is CBS using scare tactics, trying to be edgy, or just throwing stuff out there?

Caught the lead on CBS News today after the 3M Classic. They were saying that the U.S. is running out of ammo and usable planes because the air defense in the Middle East is really stretched thin.

If it was just CBS, you could maybe say fake news or questionable intel sources. But, when you see a flurry of these stories from multiple outlets, I think someone is trying to get the truth out.

quote:

The top U.S. military commander in the Middle East, Adm. Brad Cooper, recommended stopping the bombing campaign around the Strait of Hormuz because it has reached the limit of its effectiveness, according to two sources with knowledge of his position.

Why it matters: The recommendation by Cooper, the commander of the U.S. Military Central Command (CENTCOM), together with other advisers impacted President Trump's decision on Friday to pause U.S. strikes against Iran, the sources said.

It was an acknowledgement by both military and civilian advisers to the president that there are limits to what can be accomplished through military action, and specifically an air power campaign.

Driving the news: For the first time in two weeks, Trump ordered the military to hold fire and not conduct strikes against Iranian targets around the southern coast of Iran and in the Strait of Hormuz area.

Checks out. If you listen to the media you'll know that we are running out of ammo, planes, and LOSING a forever war that has gone on for 5 months and had 10 American casualties. We do not hate the media enough.

You forgot gas prices and the economy is tanking.
ETA: this is sarcasm. I’m sorry it resembles actual idiot responses.

It’s so amazing how the MSM folks can foretell the future in this admin but last admin, well you know.

They all receive their talking points by email. They do not even try to hide it. This has been going on since black Jesus was installed. The talking points are said verbatim on every medium. Search msm talking point videos. It is sad.

So you believe the economy is tanking because of $92/barrel oil and not because the previous administration printed a duplicate of EVERY dollar we had in circulation? Are you 12 or a retard? I'm only asking for my sake, not that I care about offending you.

Well, we ain’t winning. SOH traffic at a standstill, oil at $100/bbl, 10 yr at the highest it’s been since 2025, Iranian leadership intact and defiant as ever,

But, we’ve got our European allies pissed off, and our Mideast allies are getting droned/bombed at a regular pace.

Things will probably be getting better now that the NDAA is passed and we get to share all of out technology with Bibi.

There are multiple reports from various sources that the Iran operation has depleted munitions more than anticipated...

"There are multiple reports that the Iran operation has depleted munitions more than anticipated...?" Did you even hear what you said? We shot more bullets than we thought is a far cry from "OMG, we are running out of ammo..." What a joke. None of you were concerned about our stockpiles when we were giving it away to a country fighting Russia. Not a peep.

They’re blatantly helping the IRGC. Whether they intend to or not. I happen to believe they do, not necessarily to help them prevail in some holy war or something, but rather simply to stick it to Trump. Nothing whatsoever is out of bounds in that regard.

ABC, CBS, CNN and NBC are in a race to the bottom fighting over an ever decreasing pool of viewers that actually believes the tripe that is spewed by these trust fund limousine liberals
