Should we start wondering about behind the scenes diplomatic activity?

What was Trump doing in New Jersey?
Is tonight going to be a nothing burger and the admin can watch a flick?

🇮🇷🇺🇸 Iran views its dominance over the Strait of Hormuz and its capacity to regulate maritime traffic as its ultimate geopolitical bargaining chip. Relinquishing control over this vital choke point would strip Tehran of any meaningful leverage in future negotiations.

Instead of capitulating, Tehran aims to absorb US military pressure while simultaneously escalating strikes against US forces, Gulf energy facilities, and civilian infrastructure. Through these tactical retaliations, Iran intends to demonstrate that Washington cannot unilaterally dictate the boundaries or intensity of the conflict.

Tehran is fully prepared to endure the severe economic hardships resulting from a renewed US naval blockade. This resilience is driven by the conviction that the immense pressure inflicted on the global economy by closing the Strait of Hormuz—and potentially choking off the Bab al-Mandab Strait and the Red Sea—will ultimately force the Trump administration to back down first.
