☕️ WHOSE WAR?☙ Thursday, March 19, 2026 ☙ C&C NEWS 🦠
The Iran War is blowing up —literally AND figuratively— but in a good way, despite corporate media's mendacious framing. Here is what you need to know before diving into the hot takes. - Jeff Childers - Mar 19, 2026
Good morning, C&C, it’s Thursday! A tsunami of under-reported news broke loose yesterday. The hot takes and fake narratives are spinning wildly. So this morning brings a special Iran War update edition. Your roundup includes: Iran’s civilian government is flickering out as the president tries to quit and the IRGC runs a war nobody can stop; seven insurance emails closed the Strait of Hormuz and Trump turned it into the most devastating NATO leverage play in alliance history; and Congress voted for the third time NOT to stop the war, which is starting to look a lot like authorization.
🚀⛑️ C&C ARMY POST — IRAN WAR UPDATE ⛑️
Last week, I explained Iran’s split-screen government— a public-facing civilian façade with a president and parliament on one side, and the Ayatollah plus his secretive military-slash-corporation IRGC on the other. This week, the civilian screen cracked and is flickering out. The Wall Street Journal reported, “Escalating Attacks on Gulf Energy Assets Plunge Iran War Into New Phase.”
Remember yesterday’s Al Jazeera intelligence analyst, who called Iran’s Hormuz blockade “a wasting asset” that would “accelerate Iran’s isolation?” He published that Monday. Yesterday, Israel bombed what the Journal called Iran’s “crown jewel,” the South Pars Gas Field.
