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

Here is a quite balanced article about the increased oil flows through the Strait of Hormuz. The point about the Saudis also using the coast of Oman now is valid. The weak point is all these ships off the coast of Oman loading or doing STS and the Iranians need to find a way to disrupt it and regain leverage.


Article says the workaround is working but cannot go on like this forever.
 
The only time since WW2 when the USA was attached, was Sept 11, 2001. Other than that, it has been the USA who has been doing all the attacking ?

Even that was masterminded by US’ own proxy.

So, you cannot really categorise it as an external attack.

It would be like feeling sorry for Iran if Iran was attacked by Hezbollah.
 
In fact, you and another user who posts similar hasbara talking points are the biggest zionists on this thread.
being hasbara or not, some naive good willing Iranian people can repeat hasbara arguments without to be aware of it.

so it's better to refute the argument, rather than throw adhominems, also for the people who read the post.

personally I dont know if nuclear weapons would be something good or bad for Iran (for Iranian people).

for North Korea was good, it did effective deterrence, but NK world location is different than Iran, and they can reach USA mainland with missiles (with nuclear EMP), Iran can't never do it. Iran only can reach USA vassals, and maybe USA dont give a fck about them, including Israel, in this stage of USA decline as superpower.
 
Naive individuals will ignore this reality. 4-6M barrels leaving in broad daylight (not night) via 3 VLCCs.

But these individuals want you to believe Iran “controls the strait” right now.




Yet, let's be honest. The US doesn't control it 100% either.

Otherwise, there would be no need for escorts.
 
You guys keep trolling or mocking everything i say

For instance when i said that Iran should pre-preemptively bomb Ukraine and kill Zelenskyy before Ukraine attacked Iran, everyone was mocking and saying it is not necessary and that they were innocents

Then Ukraine launched an unprovoked attack on Iranian ships killing sailors then everyone of you went missing on the forum

No matter what does the cost actually make up for a simple hey are bad you guys actually weren’t building a nuclear weapon Bibi got us and Trump got mud on his face I mean Iran isn’t going to throw in the towel and we had an agreement that Trump decided to unilaterally pull out yet again that everyone but him was satisfied with be it Iran or the rest of the White House

Nobody said the US controls the Strait 100%.

Its seige warfare.

Iran’s ONLY leverage (since they are clearly too risk averse to sprint for a bomb) is the Strait. Prior to this their leverage was a wide expansive nuclear industrial scale enrichment program that is now largely destroyed.

So for Iran the only way to get US to end the war is by controlling ENOUGH of the strait that the threat of global economic meltdown makes the US cry uncle.

For the US, the goal is to escort enough oil out to prevent that scenario and maintain it until Iran cries uncle from the economic siege/blockade it’s under.

Someone will have to cry uncle. Whether in 1 month or 1 year. Someone will have to make the move to end the war.
