"Larijani appeared exhausted after the 12-day conflict, moving constantly under cover, sometimes even by motorbike"

the same guy who turned up to the Qods Day rallies in Tehran 4 days before he was killed while staying in his daughter's house in Tehran?

is Trump really going to send US navy ships into the Persian Gulf / Strait of Hormoz just to call Iran's bluff?

can he even do that considering Iran has laid several mines in the Strait?

seems very unlikely. keen for a US perspective on how that would work, but I think it's nonsense and unlikely to materialise. @AZ_HighCountry

Wish you were still here? The US-Iran war has wiped out Dubai's tourist industry so badly it's losing almost £500 million a day - but the real victims are the millions of now jobless foreign labourers who can't afford to go home​

War has wiped out Dubai's tourist industry but these are the victims

Dubai is dead, its status as a target for retaliatory Iranian missiles and drones since the US attack in February having spooked almost any foreigners from coming.

It looks like this gimmick is all designed to prop up the futures markets. Too many contradictory statements from Trump and his representatives.

Head of National Security Committee of Iran's Parliament refutes Trump's supposed plan designed for social media

He'd blinked! He called Uncle! He wanted a break... but he simply cannot stop the war. Either the cost becomes unbearable or he delivers for zion. He's not doing this for America, US is just footing the bill for zionist supremacy.

Strategic loss here is unacceptable only to gulf statelets and zion and they'd be willing to bear any cost for that! American dream maybe lost to the world but for ones who were it's true beneficiaries.

And they want to turn the clock back...

This is one of the most nonsensical news stories in recent times.
Why would Iran, which already operates UUVs and UAVs weighing up to 9 tons, resort to using dolphins?
The arrival of underwater drones has completely eliminated any need for dolphin programs.

And this happened for obvious reasons.

They lack the programmable precision of a UUV/UAV; they do not obey real-time commands like a drone; they can become disoriented, flee, or simply fail to execute the mission as expected; they tire, feel stress, and their control is based on conditioning rather than software.

All of this has rendered them obsolete.

We have entered a new era, one defined by the large-scale employment of unmanned systems.

An attempt to force the strait open will result in a battle involving technological systems and capabilities never before seen on such a large naval scale.

Europe has and will always be an American Stooge

Who cares what these pathetic Euros have to say. They like to suck the Americans, but Trump treats them with utter contempt.

Some Iranians seem to think the Europeans are more rational creatures and thus trade and dialogue can happen with these nations.

In reality, they are just the younger weaker bullied brother of America.

As I said before, arrest Argachi and Qalibaf. Not even Bani Sadr did this much damage to Iran in such a short time.

"It looks like Iran is left with only two choices: sit back and watch the US Navy escort ships through the strait, losing all their leverage, or respond militarily to protect it."

turns out that is not the case and that guy had too much faith in Trump

It’s only a matter of time till they try the escort path and call Iran’s bluff.

Same thing happened with the attacks on fuel storage outside Tehran, first they claimed it was all Israel (“wtf” message) then they attack Iran’s gas facility days later and again Trump declared it was Israel’s fault and attacks would stop. Yet by the end of the war they were attacking Iran’s steel and energy facilities and bridges with trumps full blessing and bluster!

Learn the U.S. playbook or keep getting made a fool.

Everything the U.S. does at first is testing the waters. This tweet was just that testing the waters to get it into people’s minds that it’s acceptable for US to escort these ships so that by the time they actually do, people will have thought they had already been doing it and that Iran looks like the aggressor.

Iran is in a very tough spot. Its best tool at this point is to drop thousands of mines and block the strait for good. It’s a passive defense that doesn’t require active weapons to be used on US and blocks the strait to all parties.

Iran has very little time to go ahead and begin mass mine laying operations.
