Summary:

Two months to the day after the United States and Israel launched its war on Iran, it appears to be all over but the proverbial shouting. Iran controls the Strait of Hormuz and the Trump administration’s claims that its government is in disarray and its economy on the verge of collapse are sounding very reminiscent of the claims the Biden administration made about Russia early in the Ukraine War. Meanwhile, Iran’s foreign minister was warmly greeted in Moscow by Putin himself and their meeting looked very much like a victory lap.

Summary:

President Trump has imposed a “blockade” of the Straight of Hormuz as his latest desperate attempt to find an exit ramp from the Iran War. But 90% of Iranian oil exports are to China and Chinese ships are sailing right through. Meanwhile, Israel and Lebanon have separately agreed to a 10-day ceasefire.

Summary:

President Trump postponed his catastrophic attack on Iran’s energy and other civilian infrastructure at the zero hour, citing negotiations with Iran, including an Iranian 10-point plan Trump called ‘workable.’ But no one could possibly imagine the U.S. agreeing to Iran’s proposal and Trump appears to be merely buying time.

Summary:

Three days into his second extension of the 48-hour deadline set on March 21 for Iran to open the Strait of Hormuz, the strait is still closed, Trump continues to claim he is close to a deal, but Iran says U.S. proposals received through intermediaries are ‘unrealistic.’ There appears to be only one way out of this conflict, and the empire won’t like it.

Summary:

On Saturday, President Trump gave Iran 48 hours to open the Strait of Hormuz or the U.S. military would destroy Iran’s energy infrastructure, beginning with the largest site first. Iran responded that if so attacked they would destroy the energy infrastructure and vital desalinization plants of the GCC. Monday came and Trump backed off, saying there had been productive talks with Iran. He issued a new five-day timeframe. Iran denied the talks occurred and raised him: they’re not interested in talking anymore. So, the clock ticks on another Trump ultimatum.

Summary:

Evidence continues to mount that the Trump administration launched the Iran War with no plan to deal with the consequences countless experts predicted if Iran were attacked. Apparently unable to reopen the Strait of Hormuz unilaterally, Trump now claims its closure is really Europe’s and Asia’s problem because the U.S. doesn’t import much oil that travels through the strait. His argument is dumb, dishonest, or both.
