Description

The USS Abraham Lincoln is moving. F-15s have landed in Jordan. Is this a bluff, or are we watching the final preparations for a US strike on Iran? The "Midnight Hammer" pattern explained.

In this war briefing, we analyze the specific military buildup happening right now in the Middle East (Jan 2026). President Trump’s rhetoric parallels the warnings before the 2025 "Operation Midnight Hammer," but the target this time might not just be nuclear sites—it could be the Regime itself.

We break down the "3-Step Pattern" of US Military Operations:

The Threat

The Buildup

The Strike

Key Topics Covered:

The Buildup: Tracking the USS Abraham Lincoln and the 494th Fighter Squadron. How this differs from the "Twelve-Day War" of 2025 and why a "Decapitation Strike" is more likely than a full invasion.

Recent Historical Analysis: Comparing the current Iran strategy to US operations in Yemen, Venezuela, and Syria.
