US Perspective on the Iran - Israel / US War

Because of Iranian terror attacks and threats to commercial shipping. The US can’t escort every single commercial ship out of the Strait. Doesn’t change the fact it’s the US who ultimately controls who enters and leaves the Strait. That’s control in the end.

From late 1943 until the end of the war, the USN and RN controlled the Atlantic. Yet, German U-boats continued to sink merchant vessels until the end of the war.

Frankly, I am surprised Iran has not sunk a merchant vessel yet. The Houthis have.

No, I never said the US knocked out 70% of Iranian stocks. In March, I posted the US had destroyed 70% of Iranian missile production facilities. Those are two separate things.

I’m reporting on Centcom testimonies, and US intel estimates, not random Twitter posts.

My mistake. You reposted a Twitter post.

Seeing in a few sources Trump has called off the bombing of Iran tonight. Says a deal is at hand.

...Again, but lets see if this time it lasts or we go back to boom boom as we are seeing this for past several weeks.
 
The US perspective on Iran now: just facts

Iran's failed to impose new rules of engagement..

Everyone who thought Trump was stupid. Has started laughing at himself.

All their institutions and factories were struck, their guide and leaders were killed, and they agreed to a truce.

They wanted to use the strait's card. They were besieged.

They wanted to single out small countries but they responded to them.

They wanted to strangle the global economy as a pressure, but it is their economy and their oi that were strangled.

The last attempt to shoot down a helicopter had major consequences.

Now they have turned into a dove of peace.

Don't be surprised that they've reached an agreement given the demands of both Trump and Iran, it seems that it is just a temporary truce..

Let us wait for the terms of this agreement to be made known first, to be able to assess whether it is workable or not.

It’s clear Irans Strait gambit has been a total failure:

- Brent crude down to $89
- 35% of oil that passed through the Strait prior to the war now making it through with US military assistance, which is likely pushing down prices
- The truly enchanted naval blockade that’s flawlessly blocking Iranian imports/exports for 2 months
- US LNG/oil exports at all time highs as a result
