Holy crap, these whole "negotiations" are just a huge propaganda campaign by Iran. They can't end and the bombing can't resume soon enough for me.

Xi: Kim, did you see what America did to Iran?
Kim: Duh, why do you think I’m trying to improve relations with Donald.
Xi: I’m kind of sucking up a little myself. We need to discuss our relationship moving forward. You up for some Dim-sum and a chat?

Is there not some alternative means to destroying mines and/or clearing an area?
I don't understand why some heavy bunker busting ordinance wouldn't create enough of a positive pressure shockwave and then cavitation to destroy mines underwater in a pretty large area? Similar to how depth charges destroy submarines and ships with the same explosion then cavitation

Locating the mines is the difficult part. Physically removing them can be challenging but isn’t the main challenge.

Part of the issue could be that with IRGC commands having such independence, they could not know where the mines are or that they did indeed lose tracking of their own mines, but I think there could be two other likely scenarios. First, suggesting that they 'lost' some mines could lay the groundwork for plausible deniability for future attacks against specifically GCC shipping. The second is that they want to outsource the cost of removing the mines to other parties, which is in effect the same as losing track of the mines.

If you find them, why not detonate them in place.

I’d also submit that the actual number of mines in the strait are probably minuscule.

Or maybe there are no mines. But fear of mines is slowing down the US navy and shipping companies from moving through the strait.
Maybe it’s simply a psyop.

Losing outdated drones meant to be replaced in 1-2 years. The horror

Not sure why people are shitting on rmnldr - he clearly said “don’t shoot the messenger”.
Doesn’t mean he believe the smut released from Iran or their sycophants.

I'm pro Trump but I'm not sure this person who presents themselves as a pre-teen, informing us about the war effort, lends the exercise much credibility...

The whole point of a drone is to put it into perilous situations to gather information.
You don’t expect them all to come back, that’s why you send a drone and not a pilot to do that work.

This is my thought along with allowing them to shut the strait down but for a reason other than they are threatening openly.

The fear of the strait being mined could also signal to the GCC that their economic fortunes are tied directly to Iran's fortunes. And given that the IRGC released a route through the strait which coincidentally marked the passage through Omani waters as 'mined,' I think the situation is more 'we don't know where the mines we laid are, thus you have to follow these routes we want you to follow.'
