Earlier today in the Gulf of Oman, U.S. Marines from the 31st Marine Expeditionary Unit boarded M/T Celestial Sea, an Iranian-flagged commercial oil tanker suspected of attempting to violate the U.S. blockade by transiting toward an Iranian port. American forces released the vessel after searching and directing the ship’s crew to alter course.

U.S. forces continue to fully enforce the blockade and have now redirected 91 commercial ships to ensure compliance.

Iran's Revolutionary Guards-linked media are pushing for Tehran to impose charges on the submarine fibre-optic cables running through the Strait of Hormuz, arguing that the waterway's role in global digital infrastructure could generate billions of dollars and give Iran a new pressure point against the West.

Despite the closure of the Strait of Hormuz, Saudi Arabia's oil export revenue soared.

The kingdom's oil export revenue jumped to a more than three-year high of $24.7 billion in the first full month of the Middle East war.

Riyadh's ability to reroute supplies through the Red Sea, coupled with higher energy prices, offset the disruptions caused by the closure of the Strait of Hormuz.

According to the General Authority of Statistics, the total value of Saudi oil and petroleum product exports in March increased by 37% year-on-year, the highest level since October 2022.

London oil prices jumped 43% in March. However, Saudi Arabia quickly restarted a pipeline running through the kingdom to the Red Sea coast, and by the end of March, supplies had restored to approximately 70% of pre-war levels.

Saudi Arabia's weekly oil revenues are now 10% higher than pre-war levels, according to Goldman Sachs Group Inc.

PREAMBLE...

1/ We must assume.....that the ISLAMIC Republic of IRAN is seeking to acquire nuclear weapons...
in order to pursue the use of those same weapons, against their 'religious' enemies.
Specifically against the United States of America and against the State of Israel...
and possibly even against 'secular' ['infidel'] nations in Europe.
2/ We KNOW that the ISLAMIC Republic of IRAN has been a sponsor of deadly ISLAMIC terror attacks, FOR MANY DECADES.
3/ We ALSO know that the ISLAMIC Republic of IRAN....FOR DECADES has been threatening to eliminate the existence of the United States of America, and the State of Israel.

n.b.
We must take seriously, THE SELF CONFESSED, SELF PROFESSED THREAT.....
that the ISLAMIC Republic of IRAN has repeatedly issued....

Being, that the ISLAMIC Republic of IRAN [IN ITS INTENT], is an existential threat to the United States of America, and its citizens.

Not so ?



PROPOSITION;
How the U.S. can win in Iran......
even from where we are right now, 2026-May-24.



THIS IS HOW.....
1/ Publicly nominate the 20 largest cities in Iran [by pop.].


2/ Identify those cities, from smallest to largest [by pop.].


3/ In the first phase, PUBLICLY IDENTIFY the 4 smallest [of 20 largest] cities.
Drop 'millions' of small paper leaflets over the 4 smallest cities,
demanding, that all residents in each of those cities to evacuate their city,
to a distance of at least 40 kilometers.

Also print on those paper leaflets [an explanation for actions].....
"Why are we pursuing this course of action ?"
"Your own IRANIAN government leaders have been issuing the threat of, DEATH TO AMERICA, for more than 40 years. THIS IS AN OUTRAGEOUS THREAT AGAINST OUR NATION"
"Now your own government leaders are seeking to acquire nuclear materials, and are developing long range ballistic missiles."
"Your own government leaders know our demands."
"We will destroy this city in 4 days time."
"In order to secure your own immediate survival.....YOU MUST EVACUATE THIS CITY."


[  n.b.
'nuclear materials' @ 60% grade....AS-IS....CAN BE MADE INTO 'DIRTY' NUCLEAR BOMBS.]


4/ Emphasize on the paper leaflets,
THAT THE RESIDENTS OF CITIES ARE BEING WARNED....that their own personal safety, will be dependent upon the populace of each city, choosing to remove themselves from the environs of their city.
this, all being....".....AS A CONSEQUENCE OF THE EXISTENTIAL THREATS WHICH HAVE BEEN MADE,
BY YOUR OWN GOVERNMENT LEADERS,
AGAINST THE United States of America, and its citizens."



5. After the 4 days have elapsed....carry out the attack [upon the first 4 nominated cities], with an appropriate weapon.


6. Repeat [as required].......[against the next 4 largest cities.....]



JUSTIFICATION FOR ACTION;
We all know that the ISLAMIC Republic of IRAN....has been threatening to eliminate the existence of the United States of America, and the State of Israel.

Q.
Do you believe that the intentions [threats] by the ISLAMIC Republic of IRAN,
have no basis in actual intent ?

If so......how can you excuse THE DECADES of murderous terror attacks which have been conducted,
by the ISLAMIC Republic of IRAN [and by those 'groups' which IRAN sponsors'] ?

They can't - they've already lost.

All they can do now is try to save face.

And I doubt they'll even be able to do that.

Trump's illegal war with Iran will be remembered as the biggest US military failure in history.

So, what's happening with the Trump - Iran boring soap opera today?

Ah, here we go:

Trump gives Iran ‘5 to 7 days’ to strike nuclear deal, Tehran insists it doesn’t want bomb

zzzzz... sure sounds like TACO again. Wake me up when all this is over.

A Leaked Copy Of The Iran-U.S. Peace Deal



Here, presented for the first time anywhere, are the terms each side has committed to:

1  Iran will reopen the Strait of Hormuz in exchange for the Ayatollah getting a signed poster of that muscly Jack Reacher actor: Hubba-hubba!

2.  Trained pet dog from Israel for every Iranian man: Not sure why they want this, but okay.

3.  Iran will get rid of its enriched uranium by putting it into a bomb and dropping it on Israel: Problem solved.

4.  Tucker Carlson will be permanently relocated to Tehran: It's what we call a"win-win-win."

5.  The Middle East will get together to come up with a shorter name for the "United Arab Emirates": What a mouthful.

6.  The U.S. will unfreeze Iranian assets in exchange for pinky promise that the money won't be given to terrorists: Score!

7.  Iran will be officially renamed "The Islamic Republic Of Trump Lovers": It's got a ring to it.

8.  Someone will finally go explain to Alan Jackson the difference between Iraq and Iran: Way overdue.

Trump has basically surrendered.

The deal they've made leaves the US far worse off than before the illegal war started three months ago.

Once again, if Trump had just sat back and done nothing everyone would be better off.

People complain about the amount of golf he plays, but I say he's not playing enough.

The more time he spends out on the golf course (cheating), the less time he spends destroying the US and the rest of the world.

Let him play golf every day of the year, I say.

He has all but surrendered.

TACO.

The deal they've made leaves the US far worse off than they were before the illegal war he started for no reason (apart from distracting people from the Epstein files) three months ago.

Once again, if Trump had just sat back and done nothing everyone would be better off (and 150 little school girls would not be dead).

It was all for nothing, and now he can't find a way out.

Without doubt, it's the biggest military failure in the history of the US.

Your "President of peace" has failed miserably, once again.

He truly does have the Sadim touch.
