Quite frankly, I would have closed the Strait of Hormuz, if I had control of it and the USA just bombed me. What did we think would happen? trump created this situation all the way back in 2018.

Iran doesn’t have the power to do much here. They can attack other Arab nations and get hit again, mine the strait and get hit again, hit American bases and get hit again. I’d be really surprised if Ali puts his rule on the line and incite regime change.

Closing the Strait of Hormuz and sending their foreign minister to Russia to meet with Putin sounds like an unlikely route back to the negotiating table, wouldn't you say? Trump has grossly underestimated Iran and its allies. He's already begging China to intervene on our behalf. Pathetic.

"The deed is done, and cannot be undone." (Macbeth). Now the U.S. will face the consequences. First comes humiliation — begging China to persuade Iran not to close the Strait of Hormuz.
jun 22, 2025, 9:26 pm • 1 0 • view
I’d say it’s a pretty good route back to the negotiating table. If the US is not averse to all-in naval war in the Gulf, then Iran (and all of us) are completely screwed anyway. If the US balks at that, or can be restrained by international pressure, then Iran has a strong negotiating hand.
jun 22, 2025, 9:32 pm • 3 1 • view
I'm thinking that if Iran closes the Strait of Hormuz, which seems likely, it is inevitable that our Navy will be dispatched to the Gulf. The danger of escalation, at least in the short term, seems much more likely than a diplomatic solution.

Trump wouldn't recognize "international pressure" if it knocked him on the side of his bewigged head. Or is it your opinion that Trump is not a psychopath? {Please understand, Alan, that I'm arguing against the assumption that Trump is a rational actor, not against you.]

Make no mistake about it: toppling Iran has been a 70+ year predominant effort by the USA to control the flow of OIL. Meanwhile, terrorist states such as Russian and North Korea, where there is legit proof that they have nuclear weapons, face no significant consequences or regime change.
