There’s good reason navy has moved far away from Iran. They’ve struck targets accurately far further than the 10km off their coast that is the Straits. Likely more Americans killed than reported in GCC. The Navy is refusing not only because it is a certain suicide mission that fails, but also because of the extreme embarrassment risk of that certain failure.

Over half of this was just to pay interest on previous accumulated debt.

Mossad rioters armed others, and killed 400 police officers in addition to setting fire to institutions. They took advantage of a protest over financial crisis related to large bank collapse that Iran agreed they would fix.

In addition to not trusting Mossad/CIA bodycount, you shouldn’t even trust the “innocent protestor” narrative. You’ve seen US/ICE reaction to a school drop off driver being too slow to get out of the way.

Not consistent with unlimited exquisite class missiles/defenses. Most of these systems were paid for by the colonies, so in OP, ROK PM saying he can’t stop US decision is sign that the canons were pointed at him.

Trump denied this, and it is extremely unlikely. Iran has the full power to sink every ship that comes close with drones alone, and is why no US navy ship dares come close. The Yemen Houthis have to this day still closed the Red Sea to undesirable traffic, (despite yet another mission accomplished bombing campaign by Trump) and they have less than 1/10th the power of Iran.

Mines would be a sign of loss of control, but more likely the US is bombing small civilian boats under guises that they could lay mines.

There are a lot of comments here saying that this is not the most insane thing ever said in history, when it really is:

The US has sold 0 Tomahawks to Iran, and it is exclusively available to closest US allies, which are all in the “pure demonic hatred towards” Iran club. It is categorically ignorant of all historical US doctrine, and the extreme insanity of US government is no one has told him how unacceptably stupid he is for even suggesting it.

Tomahawks further require special launching hardware, including a specific fitting rocket booster, software, and a US satelitte data link for any targeting.

You need the trucks in place now, and port capacity in the off coasts. It’s fair that they can work out an alternative to starving.

GCC US colonial bases are completely destroyed to point, where they are unlikely to be rebuilt. Trump’s threat of pure terrorism on Iran infrastructure puts GCC infrastructure and survivability at retaliatory risk, with US utterly incapable or unwilling to divert defensive resources away from Zionazi master.

I’m unsure if quote is real, but GCC needs to, if not outright ally with Iran, assert their full neutrality and disinvest from US and Israel, arrest and deport all US military, seize any remaining equipment, join BRICS and SCO. A worse betrayal to humanity by Zionazi axis terrorist strikes, means desperate measures by GCC to save themselves from Iran, as a bigger threat than Israeli black flag intimidation.

Trump’s escalating desperation rhetoric from Yesterday, should be framed as setting up the total annihilation of Gulf ally metropolises and directly threatening their financialization of US economy, and westernish real estate wealth in the region.

They don’t produce that many per year, and they need rare earth material access to build more. Trump feeling the need to say there is an unlimited supply, should be proof enough that they’ve run out. The Quadrupling of orders could affect future wars, but is a definite reaction to limited current supplies.

My point was that nuclear energy is not economic from selling energy perspective. I agree that it was idiotic mistake for Iran to pretend to pursue economic/peaceful nuclear energy. Still, if it can sell enriched uranium at high profit, that is easy path to peace.

Genuine food/water crisis for GCC. For world, Russia can help if you ask them nicely. North America self sufficient. A food price crisis is more apt description.

There is zero economic rationale for nukes, especially when you have sunny place and China as a friend. An easy offramp is to sell any nuclear material to highest bidder, with US invited to bid. Only justification of nuclear energy is scientist control and military purposes. True even in China with reasonable power prices.

The hard line reputation is more about Iran sovereignty absolutism. His father made a mistake to hope for US/Europe reasonableness/raprochement. IRGC resisted Chinese support, for more control over people. New leader doesn’t mean any predictable outcome, but may be open to understanding previous mistakes.

UK has been milktoast about the war. King might still condemn it, so if he cancels, it can be on his own terms of US not deserving to receive him. Oh, I see which sub I am in… if cancel, do so with condemnation.

US spends more on government healthcare than Canada ($9195/capita vs $5000), which has universal healthcare for all. As % of GDP, for total healthcare, US is 17%, Canada is 12%

Not explained enough. wtf is?

rising by the lights. killed off by a joker running something through the night?

He had a press conference, very recently, “over soon, but if Iran does anything more, destruction of everything”. including reference to shipping in Straits. Iran knows he’s bluffing, and has run out of missiles, and will not put the navy within their drone range, but at any rate, Trump’s Israel masters won’t let him off the hook.

Trump: This could have been Iran’s tomahawk missile misfiring.

The US has sold 0 Tomahawks to Iran, and it is exclusively available to closest US allies, which are all in the “pure demonic hatred towards” Iran club. Tomahawks further require special launching hardware, including a specific fitting rocket booster, software, and a US satelitte data link for any targetting.

Romania leader/party was banned for it. AfD’s only difference with CDU is anti-nato, and delegitimized for it, even if they haven’t yet been forced by corrupt courts off the ballot. If it weren’t for CDU copying their hatred, but with NATO absolutist difference, then the courts might have been needed to prevent democracy.

I don’t know much about EU politics other than anti-nato parties being far right illegal parties, but in US:

Christo fascism, and replacement theory in general, is a Zionist first movement. They don’t scare you that immigrant children might vote for healthcare in future, they will vote against Israel first rule over America, that Christo-fascists protect.

No. Reinsurance “scheme” lets an insurer transfer all risk. If US government is willing to pay the insurer $100M, then they will charge the ship $1M or $99M for the voyage, but keep $100M total. Brian Kilmede will not volunteer to be crew on the ships no matter the pay, either.
