Trump declares a blockade of the Strait, takes Irans leverage away

[eagle1462010]

This is like the Captain of the Titanic suggesting that the ship crash into a second iceberg to plug the hole made by the first

You have a Crazy imagination. LOL

You just don't understand finance like Trump does.

Iran thinks they own Hormuz and can sell oil AND charge tolls for ships to pass.

Trump says NFW, Hormuz is closed to ALL ship traffic until it is fully open to all ships, Iran gets no toll revenue AND sells no oil.

Understand now?

After of course lifting sanctions and allowing them to sell oil.

Good god you people have the self awareness of a turnip.

 

[georgephillip]

No, he is going to control what enters and exits rather than Iran and their benefactors. I believe this is the right move.

Starve them of resources and take away their only source of leverage, turn the entire narrative on the war.

Does that mean the US is breaking the ceasefire?

 

[BackAgain]

So he is going to block what is already blocked.

LOL

Wrong.

He is simply denying the Islamofascist Iranian regime’ remaining leadership’s desire to pick and choose which nations ships
may enter or leave the Strait.

It is an international body of water where maritime law doesn’t allow any nation to claim any authority to limit its free navigation.

 

[BackAgain]

Does that mean the US is breaking the ceasefire?

No.

Why would you even ask such a silly question?

 

[Fort Fun Indiana]

Does that mean the US is breaking the ceasefire?

Yes. Since, ya know, they aren't blockading the Strait under threats of cooking them dinner.

If Trump does this, he plays right into the hands of Iran. Iran's main goal is to make Trump spend $Billions of dollars per day on his war and to disrupt the world markets. Trump will relieve Iran of that task and do it himself. What an oaf! What a fatheaded oaf.

Watch the world's fuel prices begin to skyrocket again.

And yet Trump thinks he can. Lol

There is no ceasefire without a deal.

Iran has refused

 

[georgephillip]

Yes. Since, ya know, they aren't blockading the Strait under threats of cooking them dinner.

In a official sense, wouldn't someone have to fire on an opposing vessel or forces before the ceasefire is broken?

According to Trump.

Iran will dictate the pace and course of this war going forward using weapons most Americans have never heard of:

"Ghadir (Persian: غدیر, pronounced [ɣædiːɾ]; named after the Ghadir Khumm) is a class of midget submarines built by Iran specifically for cruising within the shallow waters of the Persian Gulf.

"The Islamic Republic of Iran Navy is the sole operator of this class, whose submarines all serve in the Southern Fleet. No submarine of this class is active at the Northern Fleet, i.e., the Caspian Sea."

That may look right on paper, but a combatant isn't going to see it that way. It's a new threat.

 

[skye]

It's going from bad to worse....

Trump has PSYCHOTIC MELTDOWN as Iran REFUSES DEMANDS!!!​

I see your point; however, I suspect whichever side fires the (next) first shot will be blamed for "breaking the ceasefire?"

 

[Churchill]

As usual your commander in chief is displaying his well honed leadership and communication skills and getting everyone on board - pun intended.

Good to know, looks like this is all under impecabble control and totally ship shape - pun intended again.

I bet the beting though is going perfectly.

Keep your day job.
Empty tankers are heading to the US to load up.
Iran will sell no oil and get no toll revenue because Trump stopped all traffic until Hormuz is fully open.
So the US sells oil, gas prices drop, and Iran collapses. Dumbo. You're welcome.

For once here I'm at a loss for words, that people who post and believe this stuff actually do exist has come as a big schock to me.
