He says other nations will have to guard and police the Strait of Hormuz as necessary, after his attacks on the country prompted Iran to target vessels in the crucial world shipping lane. Mark Stone analyses the Truth Social post.
He’s done what he wanted. Epstein is permanently out of the news.

Yeah that’s why nobody wanted to touch this mess with a 10 ft pole.
Imagine if Iran had allied with ISIS, killed the US President and bombed several US schools, then a couple of weeks later Iran’s leader goes “anyway, we are winding down this war. It is someone else’s problem now.”
That’s not how war works.
You can bet Iran is ok with letting bygones be bygones
What makes you say that?
“I messed this place up, hey you clean it up”, classic college bully mentality
Retreating. The word he is looking for is ‘retreat’. Also known sometimes as ‘surrender’.

Is it mission accomplished yet guys!?
Perhaps the US military told the idiot this is far as you go. Typical of him to leave the situation as a cluster fuck. At least Japan will receive safe passage for their oil.
makes mess; leaves it for everyone else to clean up
This is not how wars work. Considering the nature of ICE, it would be easy for Iran to embed operatives within America, and no one would be able to tell the difference.
The American-Iranian war will drag on for at least a decade, even if open combat was ended today.
Tl;dr: we’re fucked in the short run, but the world won’t forget this in the long run.
ELI5: Isreal is screwed.
If farting and leaving the room was a president
He is doing that on a regular basis.
The fart ends when a shit begins
I wonder when was the last time Donny trusted a fart?
Nothing that comes out of Donald can be trusted.
Unrelated but why is he so white in the picture?
Apparently the spray paint guy was a reservist.
The amount of orange goop varying drastically is nothing new
New shade of self tanning cream?
If you’re iran, what’s stopping you from charging a toll for anyone using the strait?
Oh, you want your oil tanker to leave the gulf? That’ll be one million dollars.
Make an exemption for oil traded in non-usd for maximum fun.

Literally nothing. Trump proved time and time again that you can be the most brazen scumbag on the planet and suffer no consequences.
No consequences yet. I’m hopeful some kind of Iranian batman will show up and settle the score.
This is current state of shipping in SoH. Everyone who goes through has some deal with Iran to pass safely. Iran has offered an “Islamic assembly” (UN/NATO like) peace deal for neighbours. Backup plan if GCC does not ally with Iran is to keep the toll system.

One ship reportedly paid Iran $BritishPounds2B to go through. $ and Euro are worthless to Iran because of corrupt banking system. All payments in CNY already.
If youre ona phone keyboard holding “$” should give you other currency symbol options. £, €, ₩ etc. Otherwise the usual syntax to denote pounds is to leave off the symbol and append GBP. Eg £2B or 2B GBP are easier to read and easier to type.
They’ve already pitched the idea of a 10% toll
Basically incompetence. Iran (and Houtis) have been hitting ships they clearly were not supposed to hit. It is not necessarily easy to figure out which ship is which. So even ships that are allowed by Iran are scared of crossing rn. Also, mines don’t discriminate.
That’s kind of what they are already doing.
Source? Not saying you’re wrong, but I haven’t heard this anywhere.
I only heard about this one so far
Hey, if he pulls the military back out from the Middle East, he can take credit for ending another war that he obviously won single-handedly. Plus he can get another Nobel Prize…
News Headline: Trump awards himself Medal of Honor.
Nobel is old and busted. Obviously the FIFA peace trophy is the new hotness.
Watch it become the Michelin star somehow.
