So they’re still trying to lay mines and we’re going to keep letting them drag out negotiations?

Trump is about to take a shite arse deal just to say he got a deal done. This is embarrassing.

Exactly. They're laying mines and positioning SAMs and we're bending over backwards to say our strikes were "defensive" and "the ceasefire isn't over". I'm starting to think that there is some truth to the U.S. being concerned about munitions availability. There really aren't many rational explanations - it's beyond bizarre.

I don’t think it’s munitions. I think its the congress and 60 days war powers act.

US military eliminated two IRGC vessels caught laying mines in the Strait of Hormuz and struck a SAM site in Bandar Abbas targeting US warplanes with a senior US official saying “These were defensive strikes” and do not indicate the ceasefire is over.


Hard to believe attacks like this are allowed with a cease fire.

The regime we are dealing with are carrying out these attacks.

Does this look like a regime that can be trusted to sign an agreement?

Either that or something about the F15 going down spooked Trump. Before that we were raining hell daily, and he said multiple times no deal, just unconditional surrender

Then the aircraft goes down on April 3, we move heaven and earth to get the 2nd crew member back on April 5, and we announce the ceasefire on the 8th

You can find info about Israeli missions after April 3 but it doesn’t appear the US did any other than the rescue

If I had to guess if it were munitions it is not the offensive but the defensive that is concerning. Those used by craft in the gulf and land based defensive systems for our allies.

However, it takes little investigation to determine that Netanyahu and the Israeli government are killing their neighbors, stealing their land, and corrupting the US government.

Great point that no one is talking about. I did not realize that timeline.

Not accurate. Armenian is Christian. Also, Lebanon is a triumvirate with a Christian President.

It’s embarrassing how few defensive munitions we have in our inventory. Absolute piss poor management and intentional degradation of the military by the last three presidents, including Trump.

All of what you posted has never been denied by me. What was missing from your Grok post was whether Iran was developing nukes behind the inspectors backs. That was the problem with JCPOA, the inspection regimen was toothless.

There were reports Qatar had paid off Iran after their LNG plant which basically is their economy was hit. Qatar denied it, but they rarely got hit after that.
