Iran Is Already Charging Tolls To Ships Passing Through The Straight Of Hormuz. This War Has Been An Unmitigated Disaster For Trump And The U.S.

Bend over one more time, MAGA troll...

One dollar? So who’s paid?

 

[kyzr]

The Washington Post had an excellent article about this. The idiots Trump and Hegseth were completely unprepared for this war. We have virtually no mine sweeping ships to clear the Strait Of Hormuz.
And even if we did have the ships, it could easily take months or even years to completely clear the Strait. It's a very delicate operation.

Iran thinks they can make money charging a toll.
Besides, how can Iran get their own oil out if they mine the strait?

 

[kyzr]

This says you are wrong. --
Let's count the ways that Trump has lost this war...
1) Has there been regime change? NO

Sure there has, the top layers of leadership has been buried, keep watching...

2) Has Iran been forced to give up their enriched uranium? NO

They will

3) Has Iran been forced to give up their ballistic missiles program? NO

They will

4) Has Iran been forced to give up their drones program? NO

They will

5) Has Trump now given Iran a massive strategic advantage in the Middle East by blundering into this war and giving Iran total control of the Straight Of Hormuz and making Iran a more powerful adversary in the future? YES

Not true. The US Navy controls the Gulf of Oman, any ship with Iranian oil will be seized like Maduro's was, Iran will have no revenue

6) Will Americans now be paying a fortune for gas for god knows how long? YES

Keep watching, after Hormuz opens the price of oil will normalize, oil already dropped $20 from the high.

[leftwinger]

Not.

Few sets of leaders all vaporized instantly, military equipment destroyed, morale, leadership vanished, commerce slowed, electric and water teetering.

ALLStain == WINNING???

“There are reports that Iran is charging fees to tankers going through the Hormuz Strait — They better not be and, if they are, they better stop now!”

REAL AGREEMENT reached is fully complied with,” Trump warned Iran late Wednesday in his Truth Social post.

“If for any reason it is not, which is highly unlikely, then the ‘shootin’ starts,’ bigger, and better, and stronger than anyone has ever seen before.”

Iran is charging tolls for ships to pass through the Straight Of Hormuz. And all Trump can do is cry about it some more.

Let's count the ways that Trump has lost this war...

1) Has there been regime change? NO

3) Has Iran been forced to give up their ballistic missiles program? NO

AI Overview



Iran is widely described by critics, analysts, and some former world leaders as a fascist theocracy or an "Islamo-fascist" state. While the country is officially an Islamic Republic and a Shi'ite theocracy based on the velayat-e faqih (guardianship of the Islamic jurist) system, it exhibits many characteristics of a fascist dictatorship, including severe repression, totalitarian tendencies, intense militarism, and systemic suppression of human rights.
The Philosophical Salon +5
Key factors leading to this categorization include:

• Totalitarianism and Suppression: The regime is characterized by a "ruthless, totalitarian" style of government, featuring mass arrests, summary executions, and the suppression of political dissent, reminiscent of fascist states.
• Ideological Repression: The government enforces a specific interpretation of Islam, restricting freedom of speech, enforcing mandatory hijab laws, and maintaining a state of servitude for women.
• Militaristic Authoritarianism: The regime uses the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) to dominate the economy and suppress dissent, functioning similar to a fascist police state.
• Far-Right Elements: Iran’s regime displays elements of far-right authoritarianism and ethno-nationalism, which some observers call "Persian fascism" in the way it handles minority rights.
• Proxy Warfare and Expansionism: The state is recognized as a major sponsor of terrorism, using proxy groups like Hezbollah to propagate its influence across the region, which some have termed "religious fascism".

MAGA morons call this winning.

ask the Iranian leadership who's winning .. oh that's right !! they're on their 3rd string ..

 

[Missouri_Mike]

You said Iran had no government. Made you need to sit this one out, small timer.

Well they don’t really have an official one. They have a cardboard mullah somewhere that one group thinks is the leader. He may or may not already be dead. So we’re dealing with this other guy who obviously isn’t 100% in charge. So no they don’t really have one.

 

[Alicia J]

One dollar? So who’s paid?

LOL. One dollar per barrel, einstein. There are MILLIONS of barrels of oil going through the Strait Of Hormuz.

ask the Iranian leadership who's winning .. oh that's right !! they're on their 3rd string ..

Yet they are still winning. Go figure.

How many cats do you have? It has to be a lot in order for you to be cheering for Iran here.

Mines are controllable and there are safe passages, controlled by Iranian fleet. (The fools who thought that Iranian fleet doesn't exist anymore - lost their tankers).

It depends on your definition of the word "Government". If by "government" you mean some supernatural creature, some Dark Lord, who sits somewhere in the tall black tower on a golden throne and, exclusively by his psychic powers controls uncountable millions of smaller creatures, yes, this type of "government" doesn't exist in our reality. Actually, it doesn't exist even in good fiction literature or movies.
In the human world, especially in the "societies of masquerade" (which you call dictatorships) government is more figurehead rather than real decision-makers, and anyway, to work with people, any government need to work for people. When people don't like government - they make revolution, like it was in 1979.
