The ‘war’ that is turning into a continuing ‘conflict’ against an opponent that won’t cut him any slack and IS hurting his pride, ego and polling support while scaring his party member’s.
It would appear that the Iranian military hardliners ARE going to just wait Trump out with the price of oil/gas as THEIR weapon….
Trump DID walk away from a situation he concluded he couldn’t win Afghanistan….
Could he pack up a leave Iran and claim
victory if the gas prices drop?
That’s All?
Go back to pick on people who don’t shoot back in Drug boats, Venezuela and Cuba?
The price of Gas IS climbing towards $5.00 a Gallon across America…

Trump threatens shipper’s making deals with Iran to get their ships thru the Strait….
(There HAVE been ships going thru the Strait…The US KNOWS that…The media has kept mostly quiet, we have reported this here)..
The United States is warning shipping companies they could face sanctions for paying Iran to pass safely through the Strait of Hormuz.
The U.S. Office of Foreign Assets Control alert on Friday adds pressure in the standoff over control of the strait at the mouth of the Persian Gulf, where about a fifth of the world’s trade in oil and natural gas typically passes.
Iran effectively closed the strait by attacking and threatening ships after the U.S. and Israel launched a war on Feb. 28. It later offered some ships safe passage via routes closer to its shore, charging fees at times.
The U.S. warns against transfers not only in cash but also in “digital assets, offsets, informal swaps, or other in-kind payments,” including charitable donations and payments at Iranian embassies….

President Trump said that the United States could be “better off” if officials don’t reach a deal with Iran, as negotiations again appear snagged, CNN reports.
Said Trump: “Frankly, maybe we’re better off not making a deal at all. Do you want to know the truth? Because we can’t let this thing go on. Been going on too long.”

Thomas Wright: “The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps has proved far more resilient than either Washington or Jerusalem anticipated. An institution that has survived multiple rounds of air strikes, international isolation, and the death of much of its senior leadership does not capitulate because a few more names are removed from the org chart. And hard-liners are spread throughout the regime, not just in the IRGC.”
“Iran and the United States have failed to come to an agreement not because hard-liners are blocking pragmatists inside Iran, but because both sides seem to sincerely believe that they have won the war.”
