January was an intense month for me personally with my daughter's return from Afghanistan as I sorted out some challenging career options associated with the ending of myself imposed sabbatical as an unemployed Navy pensioner, but all that is loose change relative to events impacting the IC during 2012's first month.
The new-year began with Iran threatening to close the Strait of Hormuz if the US persisted with economic sanctions against its nuclear weapons programs. This was followed in rapid succession with new strategic defense guidance pivoting a learner military towards the Asia/Pacific theater, the President's State of the Union Address, the Pentagon outlining budget winners and losers for FY 13, Assad ramping up violence to subdue the breezes of the Arab Spring in Syria, sectarian based violence emerging in Iraq, Secretary Panetta announcing plans to end combat operations in Afghanistan during 2013 – a year earlier than scheduled — and with almost perfect symmetry as January closed Israel publicly saying it was ready to act alone to destroy Iran's nuclear weapons infrastructure. Geez, did I miss something in Pakistan?! And apparently Kim Jung Un is settling in as expected in Pyongyang!
Containing Chinese military power, ensuring allied access to underwater resources in accordance with accepted international principles, and keeping sea lanes open in support of free trade along with the region's economics and demographics explains both the strategic drivers for America's "Asia Pivot" and why it is not surprising. Less clear though to me are the military forces needed for the Pacific oriented AirSea Battle Plan and its operational concept of Assured Access/Area Denial (A2/AD). If this is more than assured access to sea lanes for free trade and maritime resources (which are traditional Navy missions), one has to ask "assured access to do what?" In the past that has often meant inserting ground forces or at least supporting friendly operations ashore. More specifically I am not sure the Navy has yet come to grips with the logistics of Asian/Pacific operations. First there is a limited basing structure, which becomes even more limited if the target of naval presence is China. It would seem that the USN is going to need the large Auxiliary Oil and Replenishment ships (AOR's) it is decommissioning to keep afloat forces fueled, fed and armed in this theater known for its "Tyranny of Distance." It is also worth noting that since the KA-6 was retired in the late 1980s USN carrier air wings have lacked organic long reach "gas in the air" for its aircraft. The range of a carrier air wing is now a function of Air Force KA-10 airborne tanker basing options and their range. Here again Asian countries will be reluctant to allow KA-10s to operate from their airfields to refuel Navy jets "menacing" China.
The Saturday before the Super Bowl, China and Russia vetoed a United Nations (UN) resolution calling for Syrian President Bashar al Assad to end the use of military force to subdue anti-government protesters and seek a peaceful resolution to popular demands for more freedoms. As Assad escalated the use of military force in the wake of the Sino-Russian UN veto, the US and its allies must consider mounting a Libyan like operation without UN backing to force Assad to change or leave. Iran's influence with Syrian based Hezbollah elements certainly makes regime change a dicey course of action in terms of strategic outcomes the US would want to achieve in Syria. Then there is the question of can/should the US insert itself to right the wrongs in an Arab autocratic state?
Elsewhere, I am still looking for the cuts in the FY 2013 Defense Budget overview rolled out on 26 January. Looks like the Pentagon has decided to save money by ending its combat operations in Southwest Asia, cutting the rate of growth in its base budget, and reducing military pay and benefits in advance of the government asking the rest of the nation protected by those in uniform to take any reduction in their entitlement benefits. All this gets serious as the President's FY 13 budget is released.
Surprisingly Secretary Panetta announced that proactive combat operations in Afghanistan would come to an end in the summer of 2013, a year earlier than planned. I am not sure what the rational for this is (presumably it is "facts on the ground" as it has become popular to say in Washington), but I support it because I see active US military involvement having little to no impact in making Afghanistan either more secure, stable, or disposed to support US interests in the region by 2014 or 2024.
The looming issue though right now for the United States is, can diplomatic pressure in combination with economic sanctions cause Iran to terminate its development of nuclear weapons with sufficient transparency to cause Israel not to unilaterally attack Iran's nuclear weapons' infrastructure? Presumably the answer is yes, but as evidence by the 1956 strike on the Suez Canal, the 1981 attack on Iraq's nuclear reactor, various incursions into Lebanon, and the building of settlements in the West Bank Israel will act without US support, or even in the face of US opposition, when it believes its national security is threatened.
Ideally Iran's leadership will be convinced by the obvious impacts of the sanctions on their economy and the increasingly limited ability of Washington to restrain Jerusalem from launching a military attack to accept international verification that its nuclear program is for legitimate civilian uses as it claims. The alternative for persuading the Israelis not to attack unilaterally is for the US to offer to conduct joint or coordinated covert operations with Israel to degrade Iran's ability produce a nuclear weapon. Attractive as US covert operations against Iran might be given the current circumstances, it would be the President again committing the United States to armed conflict if not war. The difference this time, however, would be the action would be aimed at the strategic military capability of a nation state vice targeting terrorists without national affiliation but with the nominal approval of the host nation.
Ironically, what could unknot this political and constitutional concern about the war powers of the President in an election year as well as give Israel reason not to strike on its own is if Iran actually committed an act of war in the Strait of Hormuz (attacking USN ships, laying sea mines, deny innocent passage, etc.). Then the President could go to the Congress to "request" a declaration of war against Iran that would open a myriad of options for the US that could force Iran to negotiate or risk the destruction of the center of Shia power and influence in the Muslim world.
That's what I think; what do you think?
JoeMazz: Your analysis, as usual, is spot-on. I would highlight and emphasize your comment that, "... Israel will act without US support, or even in the face of US opposition, when it believes its national security is threatened." We're not taking about a bus blown up, or a Kibbutz rocketed. We're talking about their country and its people obliterated. I think that the Israelis take the phrase "Never Again" seriously. And unfortunately, whatever the circumstances and whatever the consequences, I fear that they will act alone and precipitously at whatever point they are convinced that not to do so means the certain demise of their homeland.
Obviously I agree that the US cannot persuade let alone disuade Israel from acting in what it perceives as its national security interests. What should give Israel pause though and the US a dog in the fight are likely reactions to a unilateral Israeli attack on Iran's nuclear infra-structure. Like all of you I can think of several reactions, but how about Syria supporting a Hezbullah terror campaign against Israel as both reprisal and to divert attention from anti-Assad dissedents joemaz
That is a great summary, Joe.
Your point on the need for logistical support for the "pivot to Asia" is astute. When we come up with a real strategy for the Pacific, perhaps we should invest in a mobile logistical train and use of dispersed bases/ anchorages rather than building bases on Guam or Okinawa. Replenishment ships may be more cost effective than LCS, too.
As to Syria, suggest that we should avoid any direct military involvement there. It may be messey, but arming and encouraging Assad's opponents could do the job (preferably through our allies).
Thanks Bill! As you know I spent most of my career afloat in the Pacific and Indian Ocean. Prior to the current basing arrangements in the Persian Gulf we all knew that if you wanted to take a carrier off station in the Gulf of Oman what you should do is attack the AOR shuttling between Gonzo Station and Diego Garcia. It was making that 1500 mile transit one way completely unprotected
As for Syria I really don't see any good options that the US has here so we should be in the "do no harm" policy mode. Working through Turkey to stabilize and shape the future in Syria is what seems the best course of action, but that will take time. And patience comes infrequently in our age of instant communication joemaz
Great summary on tumultuous times. I didn't see mention of how most of the rest of the world have politely told us that they will not, or will only half heartedly support the embargo on Iran. Seems that no one is willing to take a chance on reducing the supply oil to the market.
Even more interesting to me is the argument that Stephen Leeb makes in his book "Red Alert." He makes a good case that while the U.S. continues to focus on the Middle East, China is focused on obtaining rights to the dwindling supply of commodities across the planet. If one puts that in perspective with China's growing control of the global telco infrastructure it goes to your point of what are we really going to do in the Pacific!!
No good choices about Iran. Best of the worst is to cut them off from SWIFT access. That is the hardest economic shot we have short of blocking Iranian import of refined petroleum products--they have very little national refinery capacity. Potentially, these two measure would be an act of war, similar to FDR's oil/metals/rubber embargo against Japan Aug 1941. Not confident we, far less Israel, can really destroy nuclear development, but failure to try will probably cause rapid nuclear proliferation--Saudi Arabia, Egypt. A nightmare. That said, we should also consider how containment might work--the Iranians are more reckless than the Soviets in their heyday, but they are not stupid. Active Containment and sustained menace that explicitly puts the leadership at personal risk might be workable. Too bad we do not have a real energy policy exploiting our own energy resources--that would have incredible impact on our foreign policy choices with Iran.
Marv thanks. You make a great point about China. The great irony here is that China is Iran largest customer for its oil - - - - so why is the USN being used to keep the Strait of Hormuz open? ? ? I would suggest it is habit more than anything else! joemaz
Greg you are right there are no good options via Iran. If Israel or the US acts against Iran to slow their progress this will reaffirm to the Iranian people what the Muhallas have been saying about the US as the Great Satan. With a nuclear weapon Iran is incretiably dangerous - - - - but are they more dangerous than North Korea or Pakistan? I agree with you that it is time to come to some kind of Strategic Acceptance that Iran will develop a nuclear weapon but that once in the nuclear club the rules change. Use a nuclear weapon, expect retaliation in kind. Irony is that it would be likely easier to successfully target nuclear weapons arsenal than the disburst infrastructure for weapons development joemaz
I think your analysis is correct, However If Iran comes anywhere close to disclosing that they have a nuclear weapon (If not already) Israel will attack, As matter of fact in My opinion it's not if they will it's when they will. I believe this may possible lead to World war III, God help us all.
Like you I see an Israeli unilateral attack on Iran unleashing a myriad of untended consequences. None of which I can see improving anyone's national security joemaz
Until the Mullahs believe that they will be driven from power, they will not relent. This is their Manhattan project. It places the Shia sect in a power position (for now) over the Mideast that will change everything. Regime change is the only sure way to stop Iran. Everything else is just buying time. The Israelis will do whatever it takes to survive. I think that everyone should remember the enemies of Israel consider them "Little Satan". Does anyone remember who the enemies of Israel consider to be "Big Satan"?
Another war like Iraq simply isn't an option. Iran has 2.5 times the population of Iraq and four times the square miles. The chicken hawks pushing this agenda should be tarred and feathered.
Since the Arab spring,Israel's situation has become more tenuous. They will not err on the side of caution forever.
In my opinion, Jordan might be the key. Iran getting nuclear weapons is as big a threat to Jordan as it is to Israel.A nuclear attack on Israel by Iran would cause contamination in Jordan. Worse yet, any missile attack by Iran on Israel would probably involve the missle(s) crossing Jordanian airspace with a very real chance for the Israelis to shoot them down over Jordan, Iraq or Syria. King Abdullah is a smart ruler. We need to work with him for tactical and strategic management of events.
Our only choice is to keep up the economic pressure, cripple the nuclear program by any means necessary to buy time, work with Jordan to manage the toppling the house of Assad in Syria and manage regime change in Iran to a secular government that has no interest in attacking anyone.
Regardless, it's all easier said than done. I hope that we don't make the mistake of defunding the CIA with the defense cuts looming. This would be the stupidest thing that we could do.
Barney I agree that Jordan does have a dog in this fight and that King Abdullah is an able leader, but I am not sure how influencial Jordan/Abdullah are in the Arab World let alone the Iran. Current US Navy deployments in the Mediterranean make the shoot down of an Iranian missile aimed at Israel likely. What could be more crushing than for the "Great Satan" to smite their most advance weapon against the Jewish State that the Mullahs detest?!?!? That is what underlies by belief in in "stragetic acceptance" of Iran's nuclear weaponry. Attacking infrastructure only slows them down, but once Iran has a nuclear weapon the targeting to take them out becomes clearer and we have the means for neutralizing their use. Finally I fully agree with your observations about an Iraq like war in Iran. Anyone thinking that way does not understand what happened to Napoleon in Russia in 1812 joemaz

ANNAPOLIS, Md. - A handful of potential Democratic candidates in Maryland's 2014 governor's race have filed campaign finance reports, and Attorney General Doug Gansler holds a big lead so far overall.
Gansler reported earlier this week that he has $5.2 million in his campaign account.
Howard County Executive Ken Ulman has the second most with $2.1 million.
Lt. Gov. Anthony Brown has about $1.6 million cash on hand. His campaign says he raised $1.25 million in the last year. His campaign also notes he was busy raising money for President Barack Obama, the Maryland Democratic Party and campaigns for ballot questions on Maryland's Dream Act and same-sex marriage.
Montgomery County Delegate Heather Mizeur said she will report raising $248,000 in 2012, with more than $380,000 cash on hand.

In what kinds of situations?
Mine is bad.. am i doomed to fail? any suggestions here would help
In what kinds of situations?
Single target:
Right before going in, pop bloodrage, charge in, pop shieldblock on the way in & open up with shield slam. This is about the highest burst threat you can get on the warrior. Follow up with revenge if possible otherwise start devastating till Sword & Board procs & continue shieldslamming. You should be able to get at least two shield slams inside the opening shieldblock and that will be a ton of initial threat. 5 sunders can come later on its own, dont worry about getting those up fast.
Two targets:
Heroic Throw one target while you charge the second one. The above points for single target still apply. As soon as both targets are in range, use a revenge and switch between both targets with your shield slams. For the initial heroic throw part, i have a macro that'll HT my focus target while i charge my normal target, i find it eases the pull
Multiple targets:
Again, run in with shieldblock up. It'll increase the reflective damage component. If you know there's an aoe pull coming up, try racing a little ahead of your dps. Charge in (preferably the target at the back) & thunderclap and KEEP MOVING. You want to end up on the other side of the mob pack and facing your raid so that hopefully all mobs will be in a cone in front of you then shockwave. Spam thunderclap every time it's off cooldown. AoE WILL pull off you but at least the tclap, your running ahead a little and the stun from shockwave will give you enough time to start a rotation that only a few run off & you can taunt those back.
This is how i do stuff at least. But on aoe packs any paladin or bear or DK will pull off me easily (dk is usually the slowest to pull off me though)
Oh and heroic strike for single target & cleave for twin & aoe pulls must ALWAYS be queued up.
the most common situation is multi target.. single target boss fights i have no issues at all. multi target adds are the problem.. i was tanking heroic 10 dw last night, usually id charge in, tk, and before i ss the target, it was already out of range from me, as it was following a dps.
Just sounds like dps is nuking before you've been allowed to pick the mobs up tbh. You have 2 aoe abilities on gcd (thunderclap and shockwave) and one on next melee (cleave), if you're using those and not getting threat initially then it's not your fault. Try talking to your dps, explain that the first attack doesn't always land due to rng and only does so much threat anyway, if they go over that, they'll get aggro and you only have so many taunts. It might be the case that it's not a problem if they are not exceeding the limit of how much you can taunt them back.
On a related note, if you're not using them already, the tidy plates and threat plates addons are useful for seeing which mobs are loose and taunting them back.
Edit: forgot to mention you could ask for tricks/md if needed to pick up multiple mobs.

For the specific case of Lady Deathwhisper (i assume you meant that by DW, dreamwalker doesnt have any multimob tanking that needs worrying about - if it's getting to that point, your healers arent doing things right), i specifically work on picking up the fanatics and dont waste too much time picking up the adherents (unless they're enraged, etc). A taunt or two should give your dps enough time to take them down anyway. The 3 spawns are too spread apart for a warrior to round them up in the max 2 gcd that dps usually allow a tank.
IIRC (I'm trying to recall info others have posted on Shockwave and Concussion Blow, I haven't run the math)
0) Vig highest burst melee DPS (you can throw this around later)
B) Conc Blow
C) Shockwave
D) Start Dev/SS rotation with Revenge taking the place of Devestates when up
E) Rogue TotT-ing you
F) Hunters MD to you

An introduction into WarTanking (no longer updated as I've retired from WoW - the concepts will still be mostly accurate but the numbers no longer will be.) - http://www.tankspot.com/showthread.p...101-The-Primer
ALWAYS Shockwave > Conc Blow
1) Does more damage
2) Can't be dodged/parried
3) With a scope, it also has a higher crit chance (cause it's a ranged attack ^_^)
Also, if you're going pro on this, don't forget to check out waiting for Revenge vs Devastate on GCD.

yea, ive pretty much got the rotations down, im nto new at tanking. I am just with a new group and they expect me to be able to pick up multiple adds without much raid support.
in reference to the above :
i was refering to dream walker.. I sapose there isnt any multi target pulls, but there are many single target back-to-back pulls, often, new adds are comming out b4 the abilities above are off cd.

Intercept? would love to see some lore on how a scope on our gun increases the clotheline crit rate.
Back to the OP, Val is not something i have problems with, try to keep HT for the mages, but really i find aslong as the DPS are focusing fire you should be fine, as there's no need for you to tank 50% of the spwans, you only really need to tank the abomonations, which are the lowests priority for DPS, anf the mages, which are next highest before the abomos with Charge, intercept, HT, and taunt you should be first into melee range of them and SS will generally be enough to drag it back to your tanking point. the ranged should be taking care of the zombies, the melee do the same for suppressors, and everyone should be busting the skeletons. Leaving the rotworms the only real Clutch point for the tank. I tend to save shockwave for them, and i wait till the last worm bounces out, or when the first one legs it before setting it off which stuns all of them, and then a TC, generall by that time the raids accumaltive AoE has made Pate of them. and any left alive should die to your first damage shield tick.
If you want to do something fancy beserker stance>recklessness>defensive stance>charge>shieldblock+shieldslam
But for most stuff shieldblock+shieldslam single target and thunderclap+shockwave for aoe shield be enough snap threat. Don't forget to heroic strike on single target.
remember that um,, recklessness gives you a major damage intake debuff, sooo i wouldn't recommend this on any boss that hurts...

An introduction into WarTanking (no longer updated as I've retired from WoW - the concepts will still be mostly accurate but the numbers no longer will be.) - http://www.tankspot.com/showthread.p...101-The-Primer
I have 1 button warrior tanking macro here to be share here.
its stable and generate very highly tps after my 3 month testing in raid icc10/25, rs10/25, and heroic dungeon HOR.
for single target(please create 1 button macro)
/castsequence reset=shift/combat Heroic Strike, Devastate
/castrandom Shield Bash, Shield Slam
/castrandom Shield Block
*if u seen any dps making high tps and almost grabing aggro from u spam that macro follow by this
#show Revenge(1 button macro for tps burse)
/castsequence reset=5 Revenge
/castrandom Heroic Strike
*basicly revenge+ heroic strike is a tps burse but it wont hold high tps for long if u keep spamming revenge+heroic strike.
just spam that single target macro and u will be good.
and this are 1 button aoe macro
#showtooltip (please create 1 button macro)
/castsequence reset=shift/combat Cleave, Sunder Armor, Cleave, Demoralizing Shout
/castrandom Thunder Clap, Revenge
/castrandom Shield Block
*and if u seen any pally or druid that making more tps then u just spam that revenge+heroic strike and ull be over them again..
ah here are my character page incase u want to see how was my gear and talent work so well in this macro that im build.
I bet impale/deep wounds build would offer more TPS on both single and multi target then the small damage bonus you get from Improved Cleave. Also, a Shifting Dreadstone in your helm would activate your meta + socket bonus for 12 stam. You could replace the nightmare tear in your belt with a Solid Majestic Zircon. Not sure how much testing your macro's have really gotten, since it shows you havent been past 1st wing in 25 man, nor cleared RS.ah here are my character page incase u want to see how was my gear and talent work so well in this macro that im build.
Also, good job reviving a 2 month old thread.
The only macro I would recommend is to macro HS to Devestate, Revenge, and Shield Slam, that way on your most used single target attacks, you are constantly keeping HS queued for extra hate. As far as the AoE trash between bosses. . . who cares? I always have either a Pally or DK OT with plenty of AoE threat. If the DPS wants to go silly and pull a few mobs off, they can tank them =P. I'll taunt them off, or stun them if the DPS starts to get dangerously low.
ah here are my character page incase u want to see how was my gear and talent work so well in this macro that im build.
i know most peep will ask why im using only 1nightmare tears instead on using gem that will activate my meta, the fact is my meta already activate, nightmare tears work like 5gem in once, maybe there a bugger.. check it

SIOUX FALLS, S.D. -- The University of Sioux Falls football team enjoyed a big offensive day Saturday at Bob Young Field, running past the University of Minnesota Crookston Golden Eagles 52-7 in the first-ever meeting between the programs. With the win, the Cougars improve to 2-2 on the season and 44-1 all-time at Bob Young Field. For the third week in a row, USF was carried by its rushing attack, as the Cougars came up just short of a school record with 467 team rushing yards. Junior Nephi Garcia rushed for a career-high 167 yards on 18 carries, the third consecutive game in which Garcia has surpassed the century mark. The Cougars had 680 yards of total offense for the game, while holding the Eagles to only 211 yards. It's the first time USF has surpassed the 600-yard mark since they routed Dakota Wesleyan 63-3 on October 23, 2010. USF has now rushed for 1,096 yards in their last three games. USF started the game with a pair of mistakes on special teams, but after blocking a UMC field goal attempt, got things going on a 5-yard run by Luke Papillion. Joseph Hlushak followed with a 54-yard touchdown run, his first score as a Cougar, to make it 13-0. USF then put up three touchdowns in the second quarter -- a 1-yard run by Papillion, a 5-yard run by Matt Young and a 31-yard pass from Papillion to Carrington Hanna, to give the Cougars a 35-0 lead at half. Young's score was the first of his career, and Papillion's strike to Hanna was his first career touchdown pass and USF's first touchdown pass of the season. After a scoreless third quarter, Garcia scored from 19-yards out to make it 42-0 early in the fourth. After the Eagles (0-4) broke up the shutout bid on a 50-yard run by Keith McBride, Bradley Hatfield added a 25-yard field goal and Brady Rose rounded out the scoring with a 1-yard touchdown run, the first of his career. Papillion finished the game 12-for-23 for a career-high 155 yards passing, while rushing for 77 yards and two scores. Hlushak rushed for 77 yards, while Young had 34 yards rushing and was 6-of-9 for 58 yards through the air. Hanna had his best game of the season, catching seven passes for 84 yards and a TD while rushing for 26 yards on four attempts. Defensively, USF was led by John Batinich, who had seven tackles, and Clint Wilson, who had six stops, two for loss. Evan Gentry and Jarrett Grabbe each had sacks for the Cougars.
Golden Eagle freshman quarterback Kyle Larson finished 11-of-25 for 87 yards. His top target was Justin Tago Su'e, who hauled in five catches for 26 yards. Defensively, the Golden Eagles were led by Tevin Kellum, who had an interception and 15 tackles, including 12 solo tackles which ranks second all-time among all UMC players in a single game.
