US Perspective on the Iran - Israel / US War

[KAL-EL]

If Iran gives them the chance to turn it into a US territory, then I guess it will eventually become a US territory.

So, Iran mustn't give them that chance.

However, too much Iranian investment was put into Octopus Soleimani's Terror Tentacles, which gave the US the opportunity to bring its armada to the Strait.

The straight will never be a US territory. That's just Trump once again talking out of his ass

No, Iran is not starving , They are cut off . wait them out. A well practiced war tactic from the Middle Ages laying siege to your enemies restricting them from essentials. :

Iranians are not living in ancient times. This is August 2026.

Try switching off your phone and television for a week.

I don't know why Iranians living comfortably abroad and their supporters in other countries always want and expect Iranians in Iran to suffer and sacrifice everything for the pride of IRGC fanatics living abroad.

I think this no war no peace situation may well become permanent, with maybe the occasional armed flare up.. Essentially a return to pre war status quo but with Strait of Hormuz now a mini battleground.

If America really chooses to tighten the screw it can stop Iranian exports and imports en masse, maybe even pressure Turkiye and Pakistan to close land border.

Obviously Iran os a big country and can feed itself, but its economic and scientific progress will be blunted massively. America and the rest of the world will move and and of course develop alternatives to Hormuz

The short war favoured Iran and put it in a good position, but longer term, Western economic and military strength will prevail. Iran should take a deal now.

To me, this blockade of Iran by the US seems similar to the 12 years of no-fly zones over Iraq, enforced by the UK and US, which eventually hollowed out Iraq from the inside.

America looks very committed to this, and I think Israel and the Gulf countries probably also prefer this approach.

Plenty of oil still exiting through the Omani corridor

A lot of it is reaching their shores and waters
