Notice that while the statement ends with a list of total current US Navy presence in the region of: "guided-missile destroyers, over 100 land and sea-based aircraft, multi-domain unmanned platforms, and 15,000 service members", not once do they use the words "Naval escort"!
President Trump did not announce an escort mission just now, US officials say. Project Freedom, earlier called the Maritime Freedom Construct, is a coordination cell. It’ll tell US-flagged ships and others the safe lanes to navigate the Strait of Hormuz (aka no mines, etc.)
Tarik Cyril Amar pushes back against the idea that the U.S. war on Iran is some brilliant 4D chess strategy to redesign the petrodollar system or reroute global energy flows. His point is simple: these theories assume a level of rationality, secrecy, and flawless execution that the actual American system no longer seems capable of producing. Tarik argues that people often reach for hidden master plans because they cannot accept the disturbing possibility that American policy is increasingly shaped by irrationality, Israeli influence, institutional decay, and a commander-in-chief who is not executing genius strategy but improvising chaos. Sometimes the explanation is not 4D chess. Sometimes the empire is simply losing control. .@TarikCyrilAmar .@SyrianaAnalysis
