BREAKING: It is now revealed that Trump has cancelled his planned massive attack on Iran on Saturday explicitly because the US military has exhausted 80% of its THAAD interceptors and 50% of Patriot interceptors, and after talking with Gulf allies who told him they were afraid of Iranian retaliation on their energy infrastructure and fear the US can't defend them anymore due to interceptor shortages, senior officials tell CNN. Senior US military commanders warn that the Pentagon's munitions stockpile is already "dangerously low," with Joint Chiefs Chairman Gen. Dan Caine privately cautioning that carrying out the planned attack would've fully depleted interceptors available to US Central Command to absolute zero. Sources add "the lack of interceptors means that conventional attacks can backfire if the suicide drones start making it through in-masse," warning "tit-for-tat will never end this," with ATACMS and Precision Strike Missiles primarily used up during the war and 50% of the global Tomahawk supply also depleted.
