Now, would the other Europeans, just like the UK, join the USA to provide warships to keep the Straits of Hormuz open to traffic? Remember that Iran will be there forever, while their warships cannot be stationed there permanently, with logistical supplies needed all the time. Even shitting becomes a problem like the USA aircraft carrier, Gerald R. Ford, when at sea for too long.
Now, talking about the aircraft carrier, Gerald R. Ford, having a laundry fire that took 30 hours to put out. What kind of a laundry fire was that and how did it spread supposedly via ducts. Sounds unbelievable. Or was there some other reason being covered up using laundry cloths. Some are saying sabotage by crew could be the reason. The aircraft carrier had been at sea for almost nine months and crews are unhappy and facing a 'real' war in the Middle East.
But take the propaganda as just well, propaganda, which I sometimes find it very difficult to digest. You can fool most people most of the time, most people some of the time, but not all people all the time.

Trump is still spreading fake news about talks and deals to manipulate the stock market and the oil trade. We have seen that over the last couple of days.
There was no negotiating going on. If any, it happened while Trump was sleepwalking. The Iranians said so and I believe the Iranians more than Trump, the habitual liar. Crying wolf too many times could be consequential.
Now the Houthis have entered the war, sending drones to attack Ramon Airport in the South of Israel. There are also oil installations in Southern Israel that the Houthis can target as well if the USA and Israel go for the power plants in Iran, which they have now threatened to take out.
Israel is fighting the Hezbollah in Southern Lebanon, while Iran is still shelling Tel Avia and Jerusalem, and the Houthis are causing another problem for Israel. Iran really wants to make sure the patriot interceptors and others are doing to be exhausted. If the Israeli fires those expensive interceptors to take down cheap drones, the cost is mathematically insane, while not firing them is going to risk costly damage as well. It is now a Hobson's choice for Israel.
Gone are the days of Israel boasting about its 'Iron Dome' invincibility and that no Arab or Muslim country could succeed in attacking Israel. Well, there goes the long-standing myth. Now even Hezbollah and the Houthis know where the weakness of Israel lies, how to overcome them and are causing serious damage to Israel.
Most people already knew the censorship regarding damage inflicted by Iran that has been implemented by Israel in order not to reveal the success of the strikes by Iran, Hezbollah and the Houthis. But cover-up can never last forever.
I want to laugh when the USA talks about a full-scale invasion with a few thousand marines. Iran is not Venezuela by any stretch of the imagination. And what did the hundreds of thousands of Marines achieved in Vietnam?
A few thousand marines are going to invade a vast country like Iran to take over it is like a fairy tale going to happen right before our eyes. Has Trump been drinking too much of Kool-Aid I wonder?
It is all just to make the stock market rise and oil prices to go down a little. We are already seeing the panic going on in countries around the world over oil prices at this point. Few countries have enough stockpiles to last another week if the war does not end. Trump has to generate fake news to calm the market.
Iran will never accept the 15-point peace plan which is all about the USA gaining control of the Middle East and Iran capitulating. It is not going to happen.
There is now a move to cut another passage across the UAE to bypass the Straits of Hormuz. How strategic is this move if the Persian Gulf is still not fully secured.
Remember that all the major oil terminals are inside the Persian Gulf and mining the Gulf will make the creation of another channel an exercise in futility.
This is the best time for Iran and allies to shoot down American transport planes ferrying troops to the Middle East. Transport planes are quite defenceless, slow moving and easy targets.
Another easy target is the Gerald Ford in Crete. What is Iran waiting for? In the dock, under repair, it is literally a sitting duck and with most defensive systems down. Iran, go for it.
