Blasting a cargo ship.

Well technically just the engine room.... Though I don't think anyone in there would have a very good day when it happened.

If Iran forgot where the mines were.....then why would they try this?

Is someone fibbing?

Latest reports are that as of mid to late April, our mine sweepers have found no mines.

And yes, of course they're fibbing, that's what they do. It's in the Koran.

It's like the regime in Iran still doesn't believe Trump will do what he says despite the destruction that has been inflicted on them.

Some reports coming out of Iran right now are describing a leadership tussle. It seems they're are some diplomatic branches of the government that would rather talk this out but they're being pushed into the closet by the revolutionary guard and maybe even snuffed.

Pointless violence....it may be the only legacy this Administration leaves.

It’s a war retard. The violence is what comes from that in order to win. That’s the entire ******* point.

Well it wasn't like they were gonna get away.

Trump to Pete Hegseth....

"Make sure the Marines draw plenty of dicks all over the ship."

"Yes Sir Mr. President, but they're going to do that anyway".

and if we allowed the ship to pass through, you would be the first one with a TACO meme... and you would say that was the legacy

no doubt there are Iranians in government who would already have made a deal but they fear their own. The idiots among them who are completely radicalized.

It looks like an Iranian ship tried to run the blockade and received heavy damage from the Navy. The ship refused to stop and was seized by the Navy.

The Iranians continue playing their games, thinking they can negotiate, meaning concessions from the US.

because thats what they were used to for decades. Bad behaviour got them concessions, they knew it stoked fear. They know they can always still get that from the Europeans and the Democrats when they are back in power.

We’re just enforcing their closure of the straight for them. LoL

selective enforcing, the good guys are allowed to pass

We won the war though. The negotiations seem to be going on and on. They may end up longer than the war.

Imagine hating your own country so much that you would ideologically and financially support a gang of murderous terrorists trying to get their mitts on nuclear weapons

Iran doesn't negotiate. They just drag it out for as long as they can until the other side just gives up and caves. That is how they negotiate.
