The US Carrier Force is nearing Iran

Trump announced that, after Iran murdered many innocent, peaceful protestors, he was sending an armada that might or might not attack Iran and replace the evil Ayatollah with a good Shah, but the newspapers only report that the carrier strike group is 'on their way' to Iran, no idea where, or when they'll get there.

The UN reports that Iran had a protest after Iranian government incompetence wrecked the Iranian currency, making it worthless, so no one could buy anything, and Iran responded by killing more than 20,000 of the peaceful protesters. This is supported by all the US/UK/EU mainstream media.

As usual, the social media like Telegram have posters (like the Iranian propaganda outlet, PressTV) that say the UN/US/UK/EU mainstream media are all lying, that the actual death toll during the protests was 3,117, where 2,427 were security forces and civilians and 690 were armed terrorists shooting at the security forces and peaceful protestors until they were killed by the security forces.

It seems someone managed to get about 40,000 Starlink terminals into Iran and also there was also an Iranian Royalist website, and both provided instructions to the terrorists on where to find weapons, where to go to join other terrorists, and told them to shoot security forces and peaceful protestors. Mossad, the CIA, and MI6 (that we know of, other Western intelligence agencies may also have helped) paid Iranians and others to riot and kill and gave them their Starlink terminals and lots of weapons: pistols, incendiary devices, etc. 

Iran has many minorities, Kurds, Arabs, Royalists, etc., some of whom want to get rid of the Ayatollahs, and who together are about 10% of the Iranian population. Also, Kurds and Arabs living outside Iran might have entered Iran (the border is not well guarded) to help the Kurds and Arabs living inside Iran try to overthrow the Ayatollahs.

It started when the US worked hard to destroy the Iranian currency, dumping and shorting rials on the various currency exchanges until the Iranian rial lost more than half the value, so shopkeepers could not buy replacement stock and went out to peacefully protest. Then Mossad, the CIA, MI6, et al. paid people and provided them with weapons so they could go out and join the shopkeepers and start shooting security forces and the shopkeepers, getting detailed directions from their Starlink terminals.

All was going well until Iran shut off the Internet, then used devices provided by the evil Russians and Chinese to track down every Starlink terminal in Iran and arrest the people who had them, and 690 innocent, armed Starlink holders, who shot at and killed some of the forces trying to arrest them, were then brutally murdered by the Iranian police (which means about 39,000 other Starlink holders were probably arrested).

So the US are sending a Carrier Task Force. Not clear what for.

Iran is not Venezuela, they have a rather impressive arsenal, some home-built, some sold to them by the evil Russia and PRC. Sayed Marandi says that Iran can easily destroy Israel, the Carrier Task Force, and all US bases in the Arab states near Iran, and will do so if attacked. Of course, if one reads the US/UK/EU mainstream media, Iran only managed to get a single missile past the Israel Iron Dome, David’s Sling, Arrow and Thaad missile defences, and that missile killed 24 Israelis who did not go to the bomb shelters in time. But if one reads Sayed Marandi, Iran destroyed many of Israel's military and government facilities (but only killed 24 civilians, since the government and military personnel were all in bomb shelters), so the 12-day war ended because Israel had suffered too much damage to continue, and they were out of ammunition for their air defences.

If Israel and the US use conventional forces,  it is almost certain that Iran will be able to destroy much of the carrier task force and do massive damage to Israel and to US military facilities in the region. They can also close the Strait of Hormuz, killing the Western economies that desperately need Middle East oil.

But Israel has a massive nuclear arsenal that could take out all Iranian defences (and many Iranians), but will they use it?

That's something we might find out very soon.
