Last night, the world enjoyed the big announcement of a two-week "Ceasefire" in the Iran Conflict. But overnight into this morning, things are not quite what they initially seemed.
Overnight, Kuwait shot down twenty-eight Iran Drones, all clearly launched AFTER the ceasefire was announced.
Israel took multiple waves of Iranian missile fire AFTER the ceasefire was announced.
UAE is currently under an Iranian missile attack. (8:10 AM EDT Wednesday)
Iran, via state media, reports strikes from an "Unknown adversary" against its refinery on Lavan Island and the oil infrastructure there.
Moreover, reports indicate that Iran’s Sirri Island in the Persian Gulf is also being bombed. According to Iranian media, the strikes on Sirri Island are being carried out by the armed forces of the United Arab Emirates. Oil infrastructure is being targeted.
More interesting: The U.S. military "air-bridge" from CONUS to Europe . . . continued all night, unabated. Whatever the US has been moving for the Middle East - continues to move in great quantity.
So this "ceasefire" is tenuous at best, and a lie at worst.
UPDATE 10:04 AM EDT --
UAE’s major Habshan gas facility, three Kuwaiti power plants and water desalination facilities, and now a pumping station in Saudi Arabia’s key east-west oil pipeline, have been attacked by Iran today.

The "ceasefire" has added such a schizoid layer to the increasingly surreal Iran war that my ability to critically assess events has collapsed. I merely ingest the stream of contradictions like an addicted bivalve.
The financial markets seem to be in active denial of the reality playing-out right now. Overnight, oil plummeted 21% in price, with the financial people confident things would now cool off. That isn't happening.
I told my wife this morning that this thing isn't getting any better, and that I want us to go to the bugout location in Pennsylvania "soon." She said "soon, but not today." She hates it up there. I'm thinking tomorrow.
Complicating our departure is that we have tickets to see Paul Anka in concert around April 15 here in New Jersey. Phyllis asked for tickets to that show as her Birthday present last September, so I spent the $700 to get them. Now, being locked-in to that is adversely affecting my belief we should get out of the NYC area for awhile. It's always something!
