Ya dont say ? So then professional wrestling isnt real , either ?? Holy shite, guess you learn something every day . Then allow me to rephrase, if you’d be so kind- Pratt played the part of a complete zero, and loser, to perfection on scripted reality shows that i only caught bits and pieces of circa 10 years ago- but enough to know that this is a guy id never vote for .. i hope that explains a little bit clearer what i was trying to say .

The United States executed a brilliant military gambit that forced the Islamic Republic to expose parts of its hidden naval and missile network in the Persian Gulf. As Sun Tzu wrote: “Offer the enemy a bait to lure him; feign disorder and strike him.” That is exactly what appears to have happened in the Strait of Hormuz. The three U.S. Arleigh Burke-class destroyers involved in the May 7 confrontation, USS Truxtun, USS Rafael Peralta, and USS Mason, were not simply transiting the Strait of Hormuz. They were positioned as highly visible targets designed to provoke an Iranian response. Iran’s IRGC took the bait. Its so-called “mosquito fleet” doctrine relies on swarms of fast attack boats, drones, coastal missile launches, and asymmetric harassment tactics launched from concealed positions along the Persian Gulf coastline and nearby islands. The destroyers looked vulnerable. They were not. The moment the attack began, U.S. ISR assets, including radar aircraft, drones, satellites, and naval systems, traced launch signatures and identified attack vectors in real time. That allowed the U.S. military to rapidly expose and target parts of Iran’s hidden launch infrastructure connected to the assault. Reported targets included: ?? IRGC-linked positions on Qeshm Island, Bandar Abbas, Bandar Khamir, and Sirik ?? Coastal missile launch infrastructure ?? Drone and fast attack boat staging sites ?? Mine-laying vessels ?? Weapons storage and logistics facilities No U.S. destroyers were hit. The broader significance is that Iran’s asymmetric naval doctrine was temporarily turned against itself. For years, the Islamic Republic relied on concealment, deniability, underground infrastructure, dispersed launch systems, and swarm tactics designed to complicate retaliation and avoid direct conventional confrontation. Instead, the attack exposed elements of that network in real time and allowed the U.S. to rapidly strike supporting infrastructure behind it without a prolonged escalation cycle. This is modern military strategy at its most effective: force the enemy to reveal hidden systems through aggression, map operational networks instantly, and destroy critical nodes before they can reposition or disappear. The Strait of Hormuz remains one of the world’s most strategically important maritime chokepoints, with roughly 20% of global oil flows moving through it. By forcing Iran to expose key components of its coastal strike network, the U.S. not only defended its vessels but also dealt a significant blow to one of the Islamic Republic’s core asymmetric warfare capabilities in the Gulf
