Iranians are forming armed groups to defend their communities and fight against the Islamic Republic.


Send a few Ukrainian from their drone warfare groups in to help guide them.

Trump has reversed course on the 20% cargo toll for the Strait of Hormuz, just 24 hours after proposing it.

Trump: "Based on highly productive conversations with Middle East leadership, I have decided to replace the 20% United States Reimbursement Fee with Trade and Investment Deals that the various Gulf States will be making into the United States."

"This way, there's no fee. I don't like the concept of a fee, but at the same time, it's not fair that we're protecting this straight for the entire world, for China and everyone!"

"I don't mind protecting it for China. I don't mind protecting it for anybody, but it's unfair that we're not in somehow compensated. And we've been doing this for many years."

"It bothered me 25 years ago, it bothered me. During my first term, I was doing things like, you have to invest in the United States. But by doing it that way, there's no fee."

"They're investing, and they're getting a return on their money, and it's good. But they're going to be making massive investments into the United States, and I like that much better."

"'We'd like to invest as opposed to a fee.' And I like that because NOBODY should be able to charge a fee for the Strait."

"As a reimbursement, the Gulf states will invest a TREMENDOUS amount of money into the US. It's actually much better!"

IRAN: Kish Island (Iran) authorities say a U.S. projectile struck near the island’s main water and power complex, impacting the area around electricity generation units.

Officials said engineers are assessing the damage and warned that some generating units could be taken out of service, making “temporary and scheduled” power outages likely.

The company added that 7 projectiles hit the island early Tuesday and said multiple vessels were damaged in the port area by the blasts.

Imagine if Israel offered protection to these countries. Beginning of an everlasting friendship.

Agreed.
It was nice to see the Saudis use their US paid for jets to go blow some shite up recently, but many others need to go on an offensive or at least write some nice checks to the US for trying to keep them safe.
