The Rundown

Israel fired first shots at Tehran, igniting US-involved war with Iran. Trump declares "practically nothing left to target," predicting quick end. US Energy Secretary Chris Wright echoes: ends "within the next few weeks." Costs exploded from $11.3B in first six days to $45.7B total. Israel runs low on missile interceptors. Gas surges to $3.70/gallon, up 28%. Iran eyes US tech firms as targets; war disrupts shipping, air cargo. Polls show US 26% support, 61% oppose; 61% Canadians disapprove. Prediction markets bet on formal declaration.

What Changed This Week

Open-source tracker hits $45.7B total costs. Trump signals wrap-up. Energy Sec sets weeks timeline. Gas jumps $1/gallon since December. Israel admits interceptor shortages. Seyed Mohammad Marandi's 2024 predictions nail events.

Just as Iran gave an offer that would guarantee it could never build a nuclear weapon even if it wanted to… Israel and the US have begun their war on Iran, with airstrikes hitting Tehran. The US and Israel bring nothing but war and destruction to the region.
