As long as Iran has enough reserves or can keep their supplies steady, this blockade is a win for them. Many of America's allies are already reaching their breaking point, and the pressure on the U.S. right now isn't necessarily any less than what Iran is facing. This is a long game, and I believe the Iranian leadership must have anticipated this exact scenario when they went with this strategy.I don't think we can wait it out. The situation will get pretty bad for Iran if the US imposes a blockade on our imports/exports. Even if our oil gets exported without trouble, there's still the issue of things like ammonium perchlorate that we need for our solid-fueled rockets.
Accepting the ceasefire was nothing short of treason.
In about a month, Iran will no longer be able to store its oil and will have to shut down its oil wells. The American are miscalculating the time that it will happen, but it will happen at some point in the not too distant future.As long as Iran has enough reserves or can keep their supplies steady, this blockade is a win for them.

Massive depletion of US defensive and offensive weapons after one month of war with Iran
Approximate estimates of percentages of U.S. munitions expended in Iran war, per
@CNN:
50% THAAD interceptors
50% Patriot interceptors
45% Precision Strike Missiles
30% Tomahawk missiles
20% Joint Air-to-Surface Standoff Missiles
20% Standard Missiles (SM-3 and SM-6)
So finally they’re facing the same kind of pain iran felt for decades….![]()
Usa is completely suffient in oil
And global prices are irrelevant
Yes it will cause inflation but money stays in USA
Infact this may work out great for USA if USA LNG Floods the system as uptill now USA gas isnt being export and lying unused
Will u consider occupying venezuelan oil resources as establishing self sufficiency now.(post maduro)
Macron says that "France lost €6 billion due to the mood swings of a 79-year-old man."
Well technically, Yemen under Saleh, (who the houthis took power after he died) had Scud missiles, so the houthis inherited some ballistic missiles when the took over the Yemeni govt,and yes, iran helped the houthis at a strategic level(more on this below)How do you think Yemen started to produce missiles and drones? Do you think they did that on their own?
I can agree with this.The Houthis of Yemen were a group of rebels fighting with AK47s against the Saudi-backed Yemeni government. Iran armed them and helped them capture Sana'a and form a government. For years, Iran was violating UNSC resolutions to arm the Houthis of Yemen.
Iran made a strategic-level and good investment in the houthis,and those investments have paid off for iran, if you accept ehat role the houthis play in the AoR- the houthis are a only close partner of the Axis of Resistance(AoR), not a direct or full member of it, and that's why it didnt have to enter serious military action along with other AoR members during the 40 days of clashes between Iran, israel and US. Neither US nor israeli jets are flying over the houthis' territory today, but they were (and are) doing so against majority/all AoR locations in Iran, Iraq and Lebanon.In other words, if they are not willing to do something for us when we need it, they're a bad investment.
Interesting discussion between Katty and Anthony. I don't know who Anthony is but seems like a warhawk with good connections in the Pentagon while Katty also has connections in the CENTCOM. Anthony saying there are those in the Pentagon who want to go all in to do a regime change in Iran and that would require 500,000 US troops. He is also saying Pentagon's hawks are thinking of unloading the entire American stock of bunker busters to destroy all military targets including any place where are fissile material stored. Katty saying CENTCOM has all the targets programmed but they will not target bridges etc as that would be a war crime.
It is a scary video if there indeed are such people in the Pentagon. There is also a good bit of discussion about US-China relations with the upcoming Trump meeting with China's Xi.
Them 1100 plus international cargo ships oil tankers trapped in the PG……..surely dozens of them belong to the US. Why isn’t the IRGC impounding them?you're right, that is the perfect response to the naval blockade.
