President Trump: "Iran has taken some shots at unrelated Nations with respect to the Ship Movement, PROJECT FREEDOM, including a South Korean Cargo Ship. Perhaps it’s time for South Korea to come and join the mission! We’ve shot down seven small Boats or, as they like to call them, “fast” Boats. It’s all they have left. Other than the South Korean Ship, there has been, at this moment, no damage going through the Strait. Secretary of War Pete Hegseth and Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Dan Caine, will have a News Conference tomorrow morning."

CENTCOM Adm. Brad Cooper:
“The cruise missiles were going after both US Navy ships, but mostly after commercial shipping. We defended both ourselves and consistent with our commitment, we defended all the commercial ships. We’ve had, drone launches against, commercial ships, all of which were defended against, consistent with our commitment. And then the small boats were all going against commercial ships, and all were sunk by Apaches and Seahawk helicopters.”

So this is the beginning of the end. Good riddance IRGC. How many true believers do you have left to sacrifice?
Won't be enough.

Damn Iran has really fricked this up. Attacking several countries' ships that weren't a part of this is a really dumb idea, turning world perception even further against you and possibly inviting them to join in on actions against you. Maybe it'll wake up the Brits and South Koreans since their vessels were two attacked.
Their attacks on UAE will bring a harsh response from both Israel and the UAE. Meanwhile we've been watching every move they've made during the ceasefire and have a whole new bank of targets.
They really fricked up. It's time to go Tokyo style air campaign on that Queshm island they use in the strait to direct ships around. Make it uninhabitable. Then patrol the mainland coastline along the strait with every A10, Blackhawk, and Seahawk in theater and shoot anything entering the water. This while hitting every new target inland with your fighters and destroyers
It's about to pop off big time. Let's end this shite once and for all

Grok on UAE's strike potential- seems pretty formidable:
UAE has roughly 100–135 modern multirole fighters (primarily F-16E/F Block 60 "Desert Falcon" and Mirage 2000-9), all capable of conducting strike missions against Iran.
Key Breakdown (as of 2026)F-16E/F Block 60 Desert Falcon: ~76 total (typically ~55 single-seat E strike variants + ~21 two-seat F trainers/secondary strike). These are highly upgraded variants with superior range, sensors, and weapons load compared to standard F-16s.
Dassault Mirage 2000-9: ~44–59 total (single-seat strike variants + trainers). Upgraded for multirole precision strike and air defense.

Work popped up this morning so I had to quit checking updates for a little bit.
Tell your boss (your wife if you are the business owner) that you have to update PoliTalk on the situation with Iran. I’m sure they’ll understand.
