Commander of Iran's Khatam al-Anbiya Headquarters, Ali Abdollahi:

The Iranian Armed Forces will not allow any exports and imports to continue in the Persian Gulf, the Sea of ??Oman, and the Red Sea if the American blockade continues.

If the U.S. continues with its naval blockade, this will be considered a violation of the ceasefire, and Iran will act with force to defend its national sovereignty and interests.







He gonna be dead soon.

Also looking forward to the IRGC spokeman to get turned into pink mist.

I'm predicting Iran won't actually do anything. Think they have already exhausted the majority of their capabilities

I think you are right. Seems like the US called their bluff on the strait and the paper tiger is now exposed.

Whoa that's crazy. Imagine being a Basij soldier at a checkpoint. You're literally a sitting duck. Hopefully this leads to more defections.


This is exactly what I described just days into the war. The ground game will not be tanks and artillery. It will be snipers. Take out the enemy parading around in uniforms by gunmen shooting them in public from windows and cars. They will not have an enemy to fight, but will be picked off one by one until they defect.

THE TRUTH ABOUT THE MINAB SCHOOL IS EXPOSED!

The Islamic Republic converted a school in Minab into a barracks, where over 120 schoolchildren were killed as human shields.

A brave citizen from Minab shared this video and photos after finally gaining internet access following 46 days of blackout. The regime built a guard tower and converted parts of Shajareh Tayyebeh School into a military position.

An IRGC Navy guard tower stands in the middle of the school courtyard. Does this look like a place of education or a military barracks?

The child-killing Islamic Republic regime is solely responsible for the slaughter of these children.

Will undercover Islamic Republic supporters now condemn this brazen use of human shields?

1. Good for Europe.

2. It’s Europe, they will have many meetings to talk about it and draw up plans but will never actually do anything.

Hopefully this will be the one time they follow through on something. Giving us every reason we need to say bye to NATO.

That is laughable. Without the US, I would bet that 1000 randomly picked rednecks from the south could defeat 1000 of their soldiers.

They probably dont have enough rifles to give each of their solders one. And certainly not 5-6 magazines.

The EU has spent the last 20 years spending on social programs and nothing on defense. They depended on the US for that.

Hopefully those days are numbered.

Looks like this could be a drone strike. If it had been a Hellfire, there wouldn't be that much left.

I'm sure it is possible to have someone in Omaha pilot an FPV drone in Iran given the right connections. A big drone could deliver a bunch of little drones and act as a mother ship. The Ukrainians have done that in various ways, but they have serious pressure of immediate motivation while our military is still battling bureacratic procedures.

Looking at the map, it would seem that the Iranian island at the top of the Straight would be a good place to take over and place defenses.

Europe draws up plans for a new NATO without US


NATO, beyond containing the USSR, has kept EU countries from going to war with each other as they have so often done.

There is no reason not to reduce American presence there. It costs a lot and has little in the way of necessity.

Three years ago, the Europeans (and some in this country) were trying to convince everyone that Russia would continue into Europe after they were done with Ukraine. But oddly enough, Europe didn't start an immediate massive domestic military buildup to repel the Russian threat. If I thought my country was going to be invaded, I'd be building up the military at an emergency rate, but they didn't. Instead, they played proxy war and wouldn't even commit troops to that. They made plans, had meetings, issued strong statements about their intent, but three years later their militaries are still woefully inadequate to provide for their own defense without the US. Offensively, they have even less capacity.

I can only think of two obvious reasons for that behavior. Either they never believed Russia would invade Europe, or they have practically no psychological capacity to rebuild their militaries and defend themselves.

Like I said. It’s Europe. With the exception of Poland, Finland, and maybe Romania they will do nothing they will do nothing but hold meetings and take pictures.
