US/Israel Launches Op Epic Fury Against Iran (4 Viewers)

[Warrior]

The Iranians have closed the Strait because the blockade is still continuing. If there is a ceasefire within the region there is no need to continue the blockade, particularly if you want the Iranians to negotiate.

In addition, there was talk of negotiations taking place this weekend but as of today, nothing has been planned.

Trump also claimed that Iran had “agreed to everything,” which Iran quickly denied, saying it had not agreed to anything.

This is fairly typical for US foreign policy as it is now being “run.”

Oh well, it was fun while it lasted.

The Iranians are stalling and Trump was not willing to let them off the hook. They and China are suffering from the blockade. Not the US. They are not dealing with Jimmy Carter or Obama. Trump will not let go until they agree to his terms. It is the only way to deal with them. They respect only strength. Their strategy is to delay because that has worked for them but there is a new sheriff in town. And he is Gary Cooper instead of Barney Fife. They are slowing learning that lesson.

Doug…

I agree that Iran as a country will suffer the most on the blockade…

but the US...or Americans...will actually suffer too on the price of oil per barrel at the gas pumps when buying gasoline…

oil prices are determined by global supply and demand...rather than any country’s domestic production level...

so yea...the Straight being closed again will make American gas buyers suffer too…

possibly a bit of good news for Texans...Texas Agriculture Commissioner Sid Miller is actively urging Governor Abbott to temporarily suspend the state’s motor fuel tax due to rising gas and diesel prices…

The tax on a gallon of gas is about 20 cents per gallon...which could provide a little relief if Abbott agrees to it...
