Do you notice how the top of their wish list is always unfreezing cash??
We havent only frozen their bank accounts, but I bet a lot of personal accounts as well, cutting off their "get away" funds. The blockade has stopped most potential future revenue and also stopped all the "french wine and cheeses" of the IRGC elite.
Their army is not getting paid regularly anymore. You have to be REALLY tight on cash flow to not pay your military when facing a potential uprising from the people, REALLY tight.
These arent the "radical religious zealots" everyone pretends they are. They are worried about dying, and the rank and file see their leaders hiding is sending a very clear signal of that.
Stop reading the MSM headlines, we will be fine fellas just fine.

I agree with most everything you said but would suggest we all remember that Israel openly wants civil war in Iran so that a regional power can’t prevent them from becoming the new regional hegemon.
Only through a weak Iran (and then a weak America) is that possible.
They want to arm insurgents and pit factions against each other to create unending war and unrest so that their animosity isn’t united and focused against them and they don’t care a bit how many civilians die as a result, in fact the more the better in their view.
That’s the end game for Israel.

Oil prices fell Tuesday as President Donald Trump sought to convince the market that a deal with Tehran was days away, despite the barrage of strikes between Israel and Iran this week.
U.S. crude oil
futures were down about 2% to $89.40 by 8:05 a.m. ET. Brent
futures, the international benchmark, lost 1.7% to $92.65 per barrel.
Trump told reporters late Monday that a deal to end the war with Iran could come in “two or three days” and the Strait of Hormuz would open “immediately” after an agreement. He has repeatedly said a deal with Tehran to reopen Hormuz is close, but such an agreement still has not materialized.
The fragile ceasefire implemented in April nearly unraveled this week, after Iran launched missiles at Israel in retaliation for its strikes in Lebanon.
Israel hit back with strikes on the Islamic Republic. Trump pressured Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to refrain from further attacks.
The violence spiked briefly oil prices Monday, but the volley of strikes appears to have ended without further escalation. Iran and Israel said they have ceased fire for now.

In this war of words, nothing changes and nothing has real meaning.
The only guarantee for Iran to give up nuclear ambitions is actual regime change. It's not about mere words, images and illusions.

I was unaware that Hezbollah started recruiting Christians into their ranks.....Are they using these new recruits as some form of Jizya?

All the Iranian assets that are frozen should go to every country that has suffereed damage at the hands of Iran over the last forty-seven years and to all the families of the loved ones who were killed by this evil regime. The next time they say anything about frozen assets we should asked a simple question. What assets?

Restitution isn’t reparations. Great idea.

We will hit a radar station worth a tenth of the price of the Apache and call it even.

This war is becoming the definition of a stalemate. The tit-for-tat doesn't look to change any time soon and the Strait likely won't be open meaningfully for months.
