US Perspective on the Iran - Israel / US War

So, I finally updated my fuel logs today. Estimate of fuel prices for the trip to Ohio and back were not far off. Was projecting $950-$1000. Spent $890 and that included premium for 2 of the stops.
Not too long ago, premium all the way there and back would set you back about $300-400?

(Back of the envelope math)
 
Wanna see a single Iranian major surface vessel period....
Hahaha, and that with a non-existent navy. It’s a historic embarrassment. Just imagine the look on the faces of the Chinese High Command in the Taiwan Strait.
 
From what I understand, Iran didn't have a big Navy to begin with. And any ships they did have, or at least most of them were destroyed by the US



Iranian navy was just made up of fast armed small speed boats. To dominate and harass shipping in the Straits.
 
Apache Gunships & A-10 warthogs would have been the natural defence against Irans good fast boat attacks in the Straits. . But, US Military found out very quickly. The straits& GCC coastline is well under Irans drone coverage. Making A10s and Apache gunships easy targets for Iranian drones.
