Iran - Israel/US War: Israel-US declare war on Iran, Iran responds

[Nawnaw1]

USAF is involved in thes Escorts and attacks.. Heavy air tankers activity is going over Hormuz.. Tankers refuel JEts, not drones or helis.. these jets are flying from Pgcc bases and maybe from ACCs..

Yes indeed, but my point was, no naval ships are escorting anything. You think it's sustainable or even a strategy to keep dozens of fighter jets flying over the Oman area every day? It's ridiculous and posturing. Trying to get Iran to give a finger so they can take the whole hand.

Remember days ago a Sea Hawk 'crashed'? Doing escorts. Same with the Apaches a few weeks ago.

Six more US strikes against Iran.

Is it me or was Bibi not so subtly hinting they are about to resume attacks regarding Israel will protect international waters let’s see if Israel is about to join this round

First of all you cannot force a country to use your territorial waters. So no Iran couldn’t put that explicitly in the MoU, legally speaking.

So it was agreed between Iran and Oman that they would set up a mechanism to equally charge tolls. Then share that revenue. Hence Iran would get revenue regardless of which lane was used.

But then later U.S. told Oman if you charge tolls we will obliterate you. And Oman backed off the idea and became complicit with the West and Arabs.

What you want little Oman to do?

Will Iran wait hours and allow the U.S. to bomb Iran freely before responding as usual? Rhetorical question…

In a way... it works for the better... as bad as it sounds. As the attack was coming regardless. Forcing the hand and catching mid prep works to Iran's advantage... as Iran would hope that all ends are not tied for an encore.
It means another attempt with a half tank that will peter out without delivering results. Eat away precious time and help further the leverage. Of course, it means that a price is paid...
With focus entirely on the result.

MOU is explicit that no tolls will be charged for 60 days. Iran and Oman were discussing a form of tolls for after those 60 days

Is there definitive proof of this?

 

[Hassan Al-Somal]

The smoke plume in Bandar Abbas is a result of the U.S. attacks on local fishing vessels.

Director of Shahid Bahonar and Eastern Hormozgan Ports and Maritime Affairs: The black smoke seen behind the Bandar Abbas fish market is due to enemy projectiles hitting the Bandar Abbas fishing pier and causing several local fishing boats to catch fire.

[Hassan Al-Somal]

"U.S. Central Command forces have begun launching a series of powerful strikes against Iran to impose heavy costs for targeting and attacking commercial shipping crewed by innocent civilians in an international waterway. The U.S. strikes are in response to Iranian attacks on three commercial vessels that were transiting the Strait of Hormuz. Iran’s demonstrated aggression was unwarranted, dangerous, and a clear violation of the ceasefire."

As I was saying all along, it is not over until it is over, right?
