REPORT: China just broke its silence on the Strait of Hormuz, and it signals the global energy crisis is nearing a tipping point.
For the first time since the Iran conflict began, Xi Jinping is pushing to get oil flowing through the Strait again, putting new pressure on Iran as disruptions ripple worldwide.
Meanwhile, Iran is drawing a hard line in the sand, warning the route won’t stay open if the U.S. continues blockading its oil exports, and making it clear security in the Strait “is not free.”
Trump has warned Iran that if no deal is reached, “the whole country is getting blown up,” fueling fears the ceasefire may already be unraveling.
The impact is already spreading. Shipping costs are rising, fuel surcharges are stacking up, and pressure is building across food, manufacturing, and everyday goods.
Now it comes down to timing, how fast this spreads, and how hard it lands.
Watch closely, because what happens next won’t stay overseas for long.

I have some additional targets take out all their construction equipment
cranes, backhoes, graders, etc. You can't repair a power plant or bridge
with a shovel.

and its not like you can just rebuild power grids overnight. that would cause a lot of hardship for a long time even if regime change happens
He could start bombing of power plants and power distribution with graphite bombs first.
Shut down their power for a week or so without destroying equipment or infrastructure. The bridge spans can be wiped out leaving primary support structures intact so as repair time is minimal.

We are approaching day 8 of the U.S. naval blockade on Iran. Estimated losses stand at roughly $435M per day, putting total damage near $3.4B so far.
At that pace, once this stretches into double digits around the 14 day mark, the pressure starts compounding and it won’t be easy for the IRGC to absorb.
For context, a family of 4 in Tehran can live reasonably on about $1,500 per month. Everything paid.

Israel did that once to disable their grid. It was like chaff from WW2 days but it stuck to the power lines which disabled the grid. Apparently it’s a fairly easy, but time consuming task. Interesting technology.

IRAN'S TOP NEGOTIATOR: TRUMP IS ATTEMPTING TO TURN THE NEGOTIATING TABLE INTO A TABLE OF CAPITULATION
That’s gonna happen when you’re really in no position to make demands. This is basically a sit down to save your asses is all.

They should await the slap from the Iranian nation
What are we, two gays in a domestic dispute?
They can "slap" at us all they want, we'll just be busy dropping MOPs into their living rooms and underground missile cities by the dozen
