Six Days of War, 10 Rationales I know, this is crazy, right? I just finished reading The Art of War and it was on first page: "Explain the goals of your military endeavor to the enemy in clear and concise terms."
Page three tells you to send them written information about your daily plans.

We never really had a clear goal in mind of what we wanted to accomplish and how we were going to accomplish it.
It has been outlined over and over again daily. You may not agree with it, but that doesn't equate to no plan. You're being obtuse or gaslighting people.

Who says that we do not have a clear goal or plan?
Anyone that has listened to the dozen or so goals/rationales provided by the Admin.
You're lying again. That comes so easy to a morally corrupt human such as yourself though.

Urgent: Chinese FM calls for end to military operations in Middle East
BEIJING, March 12 (Xinhua) -- Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi on Thursday called on all parties to urge those involved in the current conflict in the Middle East to cease military operations as soon as possible and prevent the situation from deteriorating further.
Translation, we would like to preserve the regime that we have funded and armed to remain intact and in place please. You're killing our mojo.

FWIW Reza's daughter Noor is an IRL 8.9.

I’m assuming some radical leftist MSM reported Ford getting hit.
For those having never served, carriers have fires just about every day. And every sailor is a firefighter. I could tell you about a fire in carrier rag room while doing fuel unrep and smoke billowing out of hanger bay doors and us doing an emergency breakaway. Its a city of 5,000 crammed into 1,100 feet.
On March 12, USS Gerald R. Ford (CVN 78) experienced a fire that originated in the ship’s main laundry spaces. The cause of the fire was not combat-related and is contained.
There is no damage to the ship’s propulsion plant, and the aircraft carrier remains fully operational.
Two Sailors are currently receiving medical treatment for non-life-threatening injuries and are in stable condition. Additional information will be provided when available.
The Gerald R. Ford Carrier Strike Group is currently operating in the Red Sea in support of Operation Epic Fury.

That seems excessive. They should probably do something about that

Serious cracks are emerging inside Iran’s armed forces.
Reports describe a military under severe strain, with shortages, desertions, and growing friction between the regular army (Artesh) and the IRGC.
? Desertions rising: Groups of soldiers are reportedly abandoning bases and seeking refuge in nearby towns as conditions deteriorate.
? Severe supply shortages: Some frontline units are operating with minimal ammunition, food, and drinking water.
? Minimal ammunition issued: In some cases, units reportedly received only 20 bullets for every two soldiers.
? Army–IRGC tensions worsening: Sources say IRGC personnel have refused to transport wounded Artesh soldiers to hospitals, citing ambulance and blood shortages.
? IRGC units also strained: Even missile units have reportedly faced communication failures and shortages of food and basic supplies.
? Command priorities questioned: Leadership appears focused on keeping missile systems operational rather than supporting frontline troops.
? Reserve mobilization failing: Many reservists summoned for duty reportedly never reported, instead leaving to help families move toward border areas.
The picture emerging is of a military system under growing internal stress as the conflict intensifies.
