Really I don't care who the next lunatic up is, that is the Iranians problem. As long as they don't have the capability to harass and victimize the sane nations,whatever their bad intentions are matter not. Let them be all bark and no bite, who cares?

I understand why you are zealous for war. At best, your take is naive.

No it is your fundamental problem. When you Truth Deniers don't have an answer except talking points and hoaxes, you nitpick over meaningless details. Swallowing camels and straining at gnats.
I judge results not intentions or high ideals. This war is going amazingly and the results are great. I really don't care the reason we took care of a major problem. If they were bombing them back to the stone age because the Ayatollah was jaywalking this time, I would not care. They have been a huge issue for years, now they are not.

did you see the blockade has ended because our allies were going to stop allowing us to fly in their airspace or use their bases?

speaking of, I wonder what the qualifications of the Saud's demands are. Are we going to be able to intercept Iranian ships outsideof the straight/persian gulf?

Frankly I don't think the occupation of Iraq was worth the cost, but Iraq needed dealt with too. The real mistake in Iraq was trying to make them a democracy, nation building. We aren't doing that in this case.
The two biggest issues in the ME in the last several decades have been Iraq and Iran. Now they are done.

I am far from zealous for war. If goes like the Truth Deniers say it will, it will mean my Son would be mostly likely sent to combat. I have skin in the game.
I am absolutely over the moon that this operation is going extraordinarily well.
I am not at all naive. My son has an expert's insight in the military aspects (it's his freaking job) of all this and he has given me a lot of optimism. Probably if it weren't for that I would give the Truth Deniers and the Doomers more credibility, but they are completely full of 🐂 💩.

Wrong. Operation Project Freedom was ended, not the blockade.

Trump has two choices:

1l allow the Irwnians to kick the nuclear can down the road yet again, and be criticized for achieving no real result in that acore; or,

2) go back to use of force and drive the price of oil up to $140 or $150 a barrel and crushed the economy.

You might want to actually try reading the story. Operation Project Freedom was paused. The blockade remains. @rikberry31 was correct. That statement by Louder was BS.

fair enough. seems odd that is the part the Sauds freaked out about.

Seems like they would be pro-escorts and anti-blockade. weird

Everyone but the Trump admin knows that any commercial ship trying to transit the strait is going to get IRGC hell rained down on it which would be additional escalation that they don’t want.

That didn't end the blockade just the military escorts through the Strait and blowing up of their little boats.
