Trump has dropped the ball massively with this. That "Help is on the way" tweet killed a lot of people

Six Iranian gunboats armed with .50cal machine guns approached the American-flagged, Danish-owned oil tanker M/T STENA IMPERATIVE earlier today near the Strait of Hormuz in a threatening manner, after the vessel departed the United Arab Emirates bound for the Naval Support Activity Bahrain on the Persian Gulf. According to the Maritime-security firm Vanguard Tech, the Iranian gunboats ordered the oil tanker to halt and prepare for boarding by Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC). In response to the threat, the tanker sped up and was not further perused by the gunboats, later meeting up with a U.S. naval vessel that escorted the tanker the remaining way to Bahrain.

“Midnight Hammer was a very specific mission,” Lt. Gen. Jason Armagost, the Deputy Commander of Air Force Global Strike Command (AFGSC), told reporters at the Mitchell Institute Airpower Forum on Thursday. “It was like a play in a game. It wasn’t the game writ large.” Iran responded to Midnight Hammer, U.S. strikes last June against its nuclear sites, by launching a small ballistic missile strike against a single base in the region, in an attempt to still look strong to domestic audiences but to also deescalate tensions with the United States. If the United States were to undertake a major air campaign against Iran, Maloney and others say, Tehran would respond with as much firepower as it could muster, deploying its arsenal of short and medium-range ballistic missiles against U.S. and Israeli positions across the Middle East. Iran would also likely mobilize its proxy forces, directing Shia militia groups to launch attacks in the region. Israel has battered Hezbollah in Lebanon and defeated Hamas in Gaza, but Tehran could encourage Yemen-based Houthis to target tankers and launch drone and missile strikes against civilian and military infrastructure in the region, and Iraqi militias and extremists groups in Syria could also mount attacks against U.S. Forces. - The Wall Street Journal
