POTUS:
"I have just been informed by the United States Navy that all mines have been removed and/or detonated from within the International Waters of the Strait of Hormuz. Iran has been notified that any ship or boat placing new mines will be immediately and systematically destroyed. Through Space Force, we are watching every square inch of the Strait, as we are, also, with Pickaxe Mountain and the already destroyed three other Nuclear sites. There is a Zero Tolerance policy on mine placement in full force and effect. Thank you for your attention to this matter! President DONALD J. TRUMP"

That's the dumbest thing I've read on here in a while. He was not ALLOWED to finish the job.

Dude - it was a joke. Allow yourself to chuckle occasionally. I'm sure Pete would have chuckled.

And go outside and touch some grass.

Joint statement from Iran and Oman on reaching an agreement for the future management of the Strait, ""The proposed framework includes the establishment of a joint temporary navigational corridor through the Strait of Hormuz and an agreement to implement a joint project to clear the Strait of mines. Technical negotiations between the two sides would continue with a view to agreeing on a permanent navigational corridor and future administration of the Strait, as well as a mechanism for information-sharing, traffic management, and the provision of relevant navigational and security services."

Seems like we should've been bombing Oman too. Clear they haven't been on our side in this sense the beginning.

Translated from Persian:
According to Tanker Trackers reports, today around 25 million barrels of #oil underwent STS in the Gulf of Oman.

#America and regional countries are passing through safer routes with #shuttle ships, then handing over the oil to supertankers in the Gulf of Oman.

Even if one of these shuttles comes under attack, only a small portion of the cargo gets damaged. The entire export flow doesn't stop.

In other words, the regime's ability to make the Strait of Hormuz unsafe is practically being eliminated.

Impossible! I was told here many times that the irgc has a great navy and has complete control of the straight and Trump is defeated.

Rubio tells allies U.S. shifting from strikes to sanctions on Iran

Secretary of State Marco Rubio has told several of his foreign counterparts in recent days that "for the time being" the U.S. is not expected to initiate new strikes against Iran, according to a U.S. official and a second source with knowledge of the matter.

Instead, he's said the focus is on other means of pressure, including the sanctions initiative announced this week.

Qatar losing money is a great thing.

They're almost as bad.

Less money to fund proxy groups and poison our universities with propaganda

Europe significantly more impacted but they made their bed

It looks like the regime is getting ready for internal uprisings:

Reports emerging from Iran:

Yazd Province: Special Forces have reportedly deployed around Imam Hossein Square, near the governor’s office.

Nationwide: Multiple military units, including IRGC Special Forces and Fatehin units, have reportedly been placed on high alert.

The reason for this is unknown at this time.

Iran has caused “billions” of dollars in damage to U.S. intelligence infrastructure, according to a new report, which comes as the war continues to drag on with no clear end in sight.

Iranian drones and missiles have struck “intelligence posts and surveillance hardware in the Middle East that is more extensive than any destruction America’s spy agencies have endured,” NBC News reported, citing four unnamed sources.

The damage is expected to cost billions to repair.

A CIA station in Riyadh, capital of Saudi Arabia, was struck by Iranian drones in March, Reuters reported last month. A separate CIA facility in eastern Iraq was also targeted.

Sources told NBC that additional sites had been hit but declined to provide further details. U.S. officials have also investigated whether Russia supplied Iran with drone technology or targeting information.
