Ships didn't want to pay the "Enviromental Fee" I reckon and that's why they got fired upon. Some shite is going to if not already get leveled on the Iranian coast soon.

Iran’s Navy reportedly fired warning shots at four vessels attempting to cross the Strait of Hormuz from the bottom of the ocean.

What the war has revealed, however, is that Iran's geographic strategic position, through its ability to destroy things like a $50 billion Qatar LNG plant with simple drones and short-range rockets, and its ability to close the Strait with no real pushback from China and others, is much greater than was thought before the war.


We actually had military leaders who knew this. Kegsbreath just wanted to do it anyway.

The TDS & joo derangement syndrome contingent keep this thread entertaining.

They’re like the side show of retards in the traveling circus, great entertainment & distraction from serious matters

Trump floated the USA insuring ships passing through strait which isn't a bad idea

It was a bad idea when he floated it in the days immediately following the strait being shut down and it is a bad idea now. "WE" should not be insuring ships for the world, though in a way we already are, given the roundabout with "Project Freedom" or whatever they dubbed it.

Aljazeera ...

Iranian air defences destroy ‘hostile aircraft’ in Bushehr province
Iranian air defences have intercepted and destroyed a “hostile aircraft” in coastal Bushehr province, reports Iranian media.

“The incident that occurred tonight was related to the destruction of a hostile aircraft,” the semi-official Tasnim news agency quoted the governor of Jam County, Masoud Tangestani, as saying. “The city is now in a normal situation.”

State broadcaster IRIB said the interception was within the past hour.

Ridiculous thought but is it maybe possible our military isn't as superior as we have all been told and that Iran is actually a threat to match us in combat?

That's not ridiculous...that's retarded.

Damn you folks are a bunch of whiners.

There is a ton of money to made in that business. Would be great if we could bring it to the USA instead of the muslim worshipping scum that have it now.

After U.S. forces reportedly struck IRGC targets in Bandar Abbas in response to attacks on American assets, the Islamic Republic escalated further by launching missiles and drones toward Kuwait, including near a U.S. air base.

U.S. forces also intercepted four IRGC suicide drones targeting a commercial vessel before striking another drone launch unit preparing additional attacks

Did they blow up the entire plant? All $50 billion?
Or did a drone or misspelled blow the whole thing off the map?
Or did it hit one spot and cause some damage?

I heard the ceo of an oil company say that on a earnings call i was listening to recently.

However, apparently the source is the Pentagon LINK

Weeks to clear main shipping lanes, 6 months to clear all mines.

Iran didn’t say American, they said hostile. I wonder if the Emiratis or Israeli’s are down a plane.

It's an Eric D tweet who has somehow become more histrionic than Laura Loomer.
