Donald Trump has threatened that Iran will be “blown off the face of the earth” if it attacks US vessels trying to reopen a route through the strait of Hormuz.
The US launched an operation on Monday to help hundreds of ships trapped with their crews in the Gulf, dragging the region back to the brink of full-scale war.
Over 800 ships and roughly 20,000 crew members remain stranded in the region.
This train wreck is as painful to watch as a B horror movie.
This numbnut is walking into an obvious trap. They’re baiting major assets of the USN using ratty little fast boats.
Now that they’re in striking range, their defense have to be lucky every single day, multiple times per day. If the Iranians are lucky once, they destroy billions of dollars in hardware, get major bragging rights, and thousands of GI families at home get to look up the lyrics to “Fortunate Son.”
