Because of TACO
Trump always chickens out
What's the over under on how long it takes for Trump to chicken out
This ain't Vietnam where it can go on forever
Iran has Trump by the balls and they are squeezing hard
Trump is responsible for the largest supply disruption in the history of the global oil market


In the ultimate international betrayal, trump has started dropping sanctions on Russian Oil.

Putin is laughing his bollocks off.....
World economies and markets getting shredded.
Depletion of the defensive weapons available to Ukraine: Indeed, depletion of holdings that may be needed to defend on other fronts.
Increase in the value of Russian Oil and thus improvement in Russia's economy and ability to wage war.

And though IRAN is way outmatched militarily, it won't die quietly or easily and can still wreak havoc.

Iran also has a lot of reach

I peek at foxnews and of course they are reporting that we are kicking Iran's ass
Reality
WE ARE LOSING THE WAR
Iran has the military to keep the Strait closed
We don't have the military to keep the Strait open
Everyday Iran keeps the Strait closed is one day closer to victory for Iran

Why aren't people in the streets protesting Trump's War?

Gas is up $1/gallon. That $1 increase is the total impact of the Iran War on my life. I drive 10,000 miles a year with a car that gets 25 mpg in the city. I buy 400 gallons of gas per year, so 33 gallons a month. I am not protesting over $33/month. Iran regime is getting decimated, good riddance. $33/month price seems like a fair price for me to pay to get rid of the Ayatollah. Hopefully his son is next.

Iran could be obliterated by Israel and the US, much like Gaza got obliterated. But on the way out, it can and will cause a LOT of damage to the West.

Though trump is itching to claim total victory and to militarily withdraw, Attacks on Hormuz continue to make that impossible for him.

ROTFL. You think it's only 33 a month. Chuckle. Must be a foxnews viewer thinking we are winning
Gas is going up higher then a $1 dollar increase
This is going to cost everybody and everything more
Any product that depends on transportation is going up in price
That means the price of just about everything will go up including inflation obviously
All companies increased gas cost will be passed down to the consumer
It amazes me how Trumpers can't see reality
Honest question
How many American deaths are worth it to get rid of a meaningless Ayatollah that never attacked the US????????????

Bottom line
This is war in 2026.
Drones that only cost 20k each and can shut down the Strait
We have 13 billion dollar aircraft carriers that can't keep the Strait open

The Strait of Hormuz is so narrow you can see the shoreline of Iran when you pass through.
