@noplaceforsheep So it would be similar to what lead Japan to attack Pearl Harbour, an oil embargo and cutting Japan off from critical resources.

This ridiculous woman trying to argue that Australia sending warships to assist Trump’s proposed blockade of the Strait will open up the Strait, & resolve our fuel problems 🥴
Robert Barwick@RobbieBarwick

Liberal Senator and Deputy Leader Jane Hume pre-empts Trump... ...calling for Australia to send warships to support Trump's blockade of the Strait of Hormuz... ...because it's in Australia's national interest for the Strait to be open.🤦‍♂️

Within 10 days, parts of the global economy will start running short of critical goods After 30 years studying economic sanctions and blockades, I don’t say this lightly: --Not just higher prices --Shortages. Markets are not ready for this

MASSIVE : Trump gets huge SHOCK from Australian PM Anthony Albanese 🔥 🇺🇸 Trump at 8:00 –– "We have allies who will help the US Navy blockade the Strait of Hormuz by sending their warships" 🇦🇺 Albanese at 11:00 –– "Australia won't join US naval blockade of the Strait of Hormuz because we need peace that lasts. And we need stable fuel prices. We don't need wars" 🫡 Trump getting isolated by his loyal allies is something no one saw it coming

نقطة مهمة يجب أن تفهموها، نحو 70–80% من النفط الإيراني يذهب إلى الصين، وهو يشكل جزءاً أساسياً من وارداتها للطاقة. قطع هذا التدفق سيكون ضربة كبرى لبكين. أغلب هذا النفط يُنقل عبر مضيق هرمز على متن ناقلات نفطية صينية، ولهذا لا تجرؤ الولايات المتحدة على استهدافها. في حال فرض حصار بحري على إيران، فهذا يعني عملياً أن على الولايات المتحدة قصف ناقلات النفط الصينية في عرض البحر. وهذا سيعني الدخول في مواجهة مباشرة بين أكبر قوتين في العالم.

Demanding Iran cannot have a nuclear deterrent might have worked, had the US and Israel not just demonstrated why they need one.

SITREP: Iran War Next Steps (What should @realDonaldTrump do now)? Trump should double down on “peace through strength” with immediate, targeted military, economic & diplomatic pressure rather than chasing another round of endless talks that are only buying the Iranian regime & its CCP weapons depot time.  Like this war or not (and I do not), what is good for America is to figure out the best way to declare victory & turn this gas station over to those who benefit most. Face it, the regime won’t voluntarily surrender its nuclear insurance policy nor its ability to extort the world via the Strait of Hormuz. Not happening. Here’s my initial take on the next moves, based on the facts on the ground time now. 1. Remain absolutely rock steady. This is not a time to blink. Enforce the ultimatum with calibrated strikes. Let Iran know as well as China & North Korea and any other bad actor that deadlines are not suggestions. They have meaning & they have teeth. 2. Execute a maximum economic pressure campaign. Essentially strangle the regime’s revenue. Reimpose & expand secondary sanctions on anyone buying Iranian oil or helping evade restrictions. The reopening of the Straits of Hormuz issue is economic warfare. Keep it open by naval presence if needed but place demands on those nations who benefit the most to step up & provide security guarantees. Iran’s economy is hurting now so pair sanctions with public messaging that relief only comes after verifiable nuclear dismantlement & cessation of support for proxy groups (these groups have not only attacked Israel, they’ve attacked & killed/maimed thousands of Americans over decades). Starve the IRGC & the mullahs, don’t subsidize them as previous administrations have done. 3. Execute a strategic messaging campaign amplifying support for the Iranian people. Regime change from within is the long game (face it Mr. @POTUS , there hasn’t been any sort of effective regime change yet). However, there are clear cracks in the regime. Broadcast that the U.S. stands with Iranians who want to ditch the theocracy, and not with the Supreme Leader’s successors. There will be no U.S. “boots on the ground”. Instead smartly apply asymmetry and hybrid aspects of warfare (ie., info ops, cyber support, shrewdly backing opposition voices, etc). History shows authoritarian regimes crack when their own populations turn on them. This isn’t neoconservative nation-building, it’s leveraging America’s soft power where it works. 4. Initiate diplomatic isolation, instead of getting into endless talks. Work the partnerships & alliances that matter (some in Asia have little choice due to energy needs). Many of these partners want Iran contained anyway. Like it or not, even reluctant players in Europe must be engaged. Only use back channels if Iran shows real movement. No more “frameworks” or 10-point plans that buy the regime time. They haven’t worked in Ukraine, they most certainly won’t work with Iran. The U.S. has great leverage (superior military, energy independence, & strong alliances) while Iran has none, except short-term disruption. Mr. Trump, you already said it, they have “no cards.” Act like it. This isn’t warmongering, it’s realism. The JCPOA-era carrots first approach was a spectacular failure. Iran enriched closer to weapons-grade while pocketing billions of U.S. dollars in cash. President Trump’s first-term pressure campaign brought them to the table before. Now, post-strikes, & with a fresh ceasefire broken on their end, hesitation just invites more attacks on shipping, proxies, & eventually a nuclear fait accompli. @realDonaldTrump ‘s instincts here have been right so far (project strength, set clear terms, and don’t negotiate with weakness). Follow through decisively & Iran folds or collapses. The alternative are more talks while they rebuild. That’s how we got here in the first place. As you said Mr. President, the U.S. wins either way. Time to make it obvious.

@EylonALevy @JSchanzer @eylontherecord You’ve got it all backwards. EVERYONE knows it’s been USrael that has destabilised West Asia. If it wasn’t for Israel’s actions over the past ~70 years there’d be no need for Iranian proxies.

Israel wants a full peace agreement with Lebanon, which ends the threat of Hezbollah. It does not want a mere ceasefire that leaves Hezbollah free to rearm and shoot rockets at Israeli families. 📺 Silverbird TV in Nigeria:

@TheSaviour You know in the Talmud he loves so much, it says they can insert themselves into children under the age of 3, because children can’t remember anything under 3 years of age. Thats their putrid, evil justification. I guess it’s only rabbis that can suck off foreskins.
