Israel & US versus Iran war discussion

@skutfarcus :
Actually the US is only blocking ships going to Iran, and possibly ships related to Iran, including ships paying a toll to Iran is what they say. A Chinese ship is allowed to go through the straight according to Iran, but I'm unsure if they're requiring a toll. That's why the ship can go.

Trump has declared that the war is over. Again. How many times is that now?

@mypeez :
The art of the deal.

Iran sending US warship away video. You can actually watch and download it without java-script and a modern device. Who is the home of the free land of the brave?

Is the Iran exporting more oil figure still valid after the US blockade? Do you have a source for this information?

@MadScientist : I didn't find anything on the current monthly, but annually see www.macrotrends.net/ 3819/iran-crude-oil- exports. The meme may have taken a little liberty on defining "pre-war" by 12 to 18 months.

Spend money to bring oil? That's a great way to break a bank. Funny how the people just follow.

What happens in the event of a 'recall'?

"Pentagon approaches US automakers to help make weapons as wars deplete stocks, report claims"

Apparently Lebanon and Israel will commence a 10 day cease fire.

But my issue is that the statement came from a known liar and exaggerator who lives in a DC white house. Had this announcement come from Rubio, Pakistan, or a UN ambassador, I would believe it more.
My opinion and mine alone and not my employer's.

What the serious heck!?!Trump 'tried to use nuclear codes but was stopped by military chief'

U.S. President Donald Trump was denied access to his nation's nuclear codes by a high-ranking U.S. military official, according to explosive reports.

 

Retired CIA analyst Larry Johnson revealed on the popular YouTube program Judging Freedom that during an emergency meeting on Saturday, Trump attempted to access the nuclear codes.

 

"One report coming out of that meeting at the White House is that Trump wanted to... use the nuclear codes, and General Dan Caine stood up and said 'No'. He invoked his privilege as the head of the military, so to speak. It was apparently quite a blow-up.

 

"There's some very bizarre things going on in DC." The allegations have not been verified, and it remains unclear what purpose the nuclear codes would serve if accessed. However, this follows reports that Donald Trump was excluded from the Situation Room by military advisors during a crucial Iran rescue mission.

@mypeez : That graph explains the whole point of the war right there. Iran was selling oil, moving away from the USD, and causing the price to go down.www.projectcensored. org/9-irans-new-oil- trade-system-challen ges-us-currency
