U.S. Dangerous Bet Against Iran

The United States is attempting to increase pressure on Iran amid the current ceasefire, all while preparing with Israel to resume the war against the Islamic Republic.

Important U.S. military preparations were noted in recent days, with reports suggesting that if the war resumes the focus will be on targeting Iran’s capabilities in the Strait of Hormuz.

Iran has kept navigations through the strategic waterway restricted since the start of the American-Israeli war, and the U.S. responded amid the ceasefire by imposing a blockade on the ports of the Islamic Republic.

Reports from April 24 and 25 revealed that the U.S. military has deployed additional warplanes at Dhafra Air Base near Abu Dhabi, the capital of the United Arab Emirates.

The recent deployment at the air base includes at least 12 F/A-18A/C/D Hornet fighter jets from the Marine Fighter Attack Squadron 312 of the U.S. Marine Corps, in addition to a number of A-10C+ Thunderbolt II attack jets from the U.S. Air Force.

On April 26, at least 12 KC-135 Stratotankers of the U.S. Air Force made a surprise appearance at Ramon Airport near the city of Eilat in southern Israel. It was also confirmed that American KC-135 Stratotankers and KC-46 Pegasus tankers are still present at the Ben Gurion Airport.

Amid this military buildup, Iran has proposed a deal with the U.S. to reach an agreement on reopening the Strait of Hormuz and ending the war, while delaying negotiations on Tehran’s nuclear program to a later stage.

The proposal was not welcomed by the U.S. In fact, it emerged on April 28 that President Donald Trump has instructed aides to prepare for an extended blockade of Iran.

Earlier, Trump warned that Iran’s oil pipelines may explode in about three days due to the U.S. blockade, which is preventing exports.

In the face of these reports, Iran warned that it could respond to the blockade. A senior security official from the Islamic Republic said on April 29 that the continued “American maritime piracy and banditry” in the form of a “naval blockade” will soon be met with “practical and unprecedented military action.”

All in all, the conflict appears to be still far from being over. The U.S. will likely attempt to increase the pressure on Iran to the maximum through the blockade, while preparing for a new round of fighting. The Islamic Republic will not likely tolerate this for long, and could end up firing the first shot.

trumpy is stuck fast in a quagmire of his own making, and sinking fast. hoist with his own petard. no matter how hard he polishes that turd, he isn’t fooling anyone. he has lost.

the narrative

trump is an actor following orders. no different than zelenski or kijia kallas. if you believe different, you are just a another willing slave.

Rob

i have pondered about what might really be going on behind the scenes… did trump quietly make a deal with iran, while publicly putting on a tough guy show? is he going to reneg again and use it as a lull to rearm and attack again? what’s going on now does not make any sense – unleaded fuel (in melb australia) has gone back down to near what it was before the war yet hormuz is still blocked. wtf? something is cooking under the surface for sure…

Rob

p.s. forgot to add another thing that makes no sense: gold and silver are going down, not up!!! no way. exactly the opposite should be happening. the huge sell off at the start of the war, and the pathetic excuse thy gave that people were selling metals to pay for the drop in markets, is all just a blatant lie to cover manipulation. things are being prepared behind the scenes and they will be thrown at us suddenly. beware!

the narrative

gold and silver ? maybe the banking cartel is price fixing to buy.

Vanya

i never bet against mulattos in americunt gay bars that will shoot jizz in my anuz

the narrative

this is not a bet, but a gamble. it is to close the straight of hormuz and end all energy exports to china. the mafia corporations will see it done. if the world becomes energy starved it is fine . this is why nato is attacking russian energy infrastructure and conducting the ukraine war . to keep energy away from china.

Christopher

china has land borders for pipelines and trains, and geography can’t be countered.

donna trumpstein

we pay billions $ so i can have bibi pump my anuz w jizz

Christopher

hit those tankers with cluster munitions in the early hours and take most of them out, the same for the aircraft in abu dhabi.

ayatollahs are dead or in moscow. iran purchase of russian helicopters paid off. at least for some lucky ayatollahs who joined assad in russia. meanwhile putin is paranoid about drones hitting kremlin…

eeuu esta colapsando no logra imponer nada a iran

the poof

this is shaping up as a total sellout by these iranian political sub-betas.

f*ck this ceasefire situation, totally manipulated by this orange sack of sh*t and his grubby jews. southern lebanon is being erased by these inbred savages and all this araghchi can come up with is retorts and ‘moral’ platitudes to satisfy some pearl clutching crowd of the ‘garden’ and beyond. taking some dubious moral high ground is crap. just smash the animals !
