Still don’t understand how anything short of a full scale ground invasion (which I’m 100% opposed to) and long term occupation resulting in regime change opens the strait for shipping?

Nuke? Nope
Kharg? Nope
Continued air strikes? Nope

Unless the regime who controls the missiles stops them or you can force them out of the entire missile range of the strait none of it gets the oil flowing again.


You are correct, which is why this war was always stupid.

Nothing truly changes without regime change. Regime change always required invasion (and there was no guarantee of success there).

Invasion would have been the worst option for the US

IRAN LIES....and this will backfire, IMO.


And what are we negotiating? Turn over the uranium and open the strait unconditionally and you get nothing, that’s it.

We have asked multiple posters what they know and they continue to not answer.

I answered him pretty succinctly. I’m sorry you’re not intelligent enough to understand.

We stopped escorting ships. We blockaded the Strait. What was proven?

Whatever spot rage on more if you want. Until you say what you know about this deal you’re not a serious person who deserves any more attention

What spin? We have proven that the rest of the world, ESPECIALLY those dependent on trans-Hormuz oil, is not capable of keeping Iran from shutting down the strait.

We’ve also proven that we can’t open it either and Trump has made threats that he didn’t back up.


We publicly called for help and couldn’t get it either.

I’m sorry you’re not very intelligent MOT. I wish you were. You have a great volumetric approach, but you don’t have any mental acuity. It’s laughable.

The US and Israel’s.



Closing the strait was irans move of last resort.


In essentially ANY other situation the world would be ticked at them and be cheering and aiding us on. Iran knows that and that’s why they never pulled that lever until now.


Instead because we preemptively attacked it forced every country to say “I might not like it….but I get it” and stood down

America and Israel for starting this war and getting the SOH shut down

This isn't complicated
