Yep. Doesn’t matter how many billions you pour into your military anymore.

Cheap drones and market risk can change any battlefield. Against à western opponent.

Some serious money can be made now being long oil and oil stocks for the short term.

Gotta call it like it is. Israel doesn't want this war to end.

How is Iran still controlling the straight ? By what means ?
I thought they were militarily defeated ?
Drones ?
Mines ?

Wait for the cult to come in with a Twitter link that explains why this is actually great news and Iran is walking right into the trap. #Trump4DChess

Both. But mainly drones. Small short range explosive drones are cheap to manufacture, hard to detect, expensive to shoot down, and destructive to oil tankers

Anything less than regime change is a loss.

Art of the deal. Iran just closed it so they can make travel through the strait even easier.

When do we unleash the Iranian people to help get a new regime in there?

If true, Israel is a petulant little nepobaby who needs to be cut off and kicked out of the house

Also, same even if this is not true

They also slowed negotiations because Khamenei has had to operate in secret over fears of them assassinating him

They might be assholes but you have to have someone in charge to negotiate with

According to Press Sec Leavitt, the Iran News Media is false and that Trump expects the Strait to be fully open. Anything less is unacceptable.

We should immediately bomb the hell out of their energy and bridge structures. Send B52 after B52.
