President Donald Trump said Wednesday that the US military secretly helped 100 million barrels of oil pass through the Strait of Hormuz, which Iran largely closed in response to US and Israeli attacks.
"Last month, I directed our Great U.S. Military to execute a secret mission to support Oil Tankers and other Commercial Ships through the Strait of Hormuz," Trump said in a post on his Truth Social platform, claiming the US "controls" the waterway.

"Today, I am pleased to announce that this effort has resulted in more than 100 MILLION Barrels of Oil making its way through the Strait, and into the Open Market," he said, adding that more than 200 commercial ships had gone through.

He didn't create this problem. Iran did.

If we keep doing China all these solids they will be our friends.
We have the best triggered China lovers, don’t we folks. I see the fumes.

1) 100m barrels is about 1 days worth of global demand. Not a lot.
2) “snuck” is very generous. Ship monitoring services have been tracking the 15ish ships per day going through for some time (for reference, it was about 120ish per day before this bullshite).
He’s desperate to make you believe he has a lot more leverage than he actually does. What a self inflicted disaster this has become.

Why doesn’t the military take a few fake tankers through the straight and let the goat frickers shoot at it. Document the attack points then go eliminate them. Do this for a couple months and you’ll eliminate all their hiding spots?

I agree. Don't know if its doable, but I agree with the concept. Talking a tanker captain into being bait might be a problem.

If the US has “Total Control” of the Strait then why are we having to sneak oil out? Total clusterfrick

So Iran was preventing oil from moving through the strait before they were attacked by Israel and the US?

And sneak from who? They are supposedly decimated.

Have the military man and captain the tankers. I’m not talking about putting civilian captains in there.

They sure rushed to post in this thread. Made me picture them like this:

Yeah, having to sneak oil out, getting an Apache knocked out of the sky, and having to sink an Indian cargo ship resulting in multiple deaths really screams "complete control", doesn't it?

Iran did, along with Carter. And, no president since then had the balls to address it until now.
I hope Trump does not lose Congress because of this war; however, he has to be congratuated that he had the backbone to do something no other president would even though they all knew it was necessary due to politics.
