#Trump posted on social media that the war with #Iran could soon end & #oil & natural #gas shipments could restart. But that all depends on Iran accepting a reported agreement that Trump did not detail.

“If they don’t agree, the bombing starts,” Trump wrote.

Trump threatens Iran with bombing if it doesn’t reopen strait

U.S. President Donald Trump is threatening Iran with more bombing if it doesn’t reopen the Strait of Hormuz after a report that an agreement is emerging to end war. Trump posted on social media Wednesday that the war with Iran could soon end and oil and natural gas shipments could restart. But that all depends on Iran accepting a reported agreement that the U.S. president did not detail. Trump wrote: “If they don’t agree, the bombing starts.”

…In all, The Post found 217 structures & 11 pieces of equipment that were damaged or destroyed at 15 #US #military sites in the region.
Experts who reviewed The Post’s analysis said the damage at the sites suggested that the US military had underestimated Iran’s targeting abilities, not adapted sufficiently to modern drone warfare & left some bases under-protected.

Meaningless nonsense

#Trump says deadline for #Congress to approve #IranWar doesn't apply: Hostilities have 'terminated'

The White House asserted to Congress in a letter Friday that hostilities with #Iran have “terminated” despite the continued presence of US armed forces in the region.

Trump contends hostilities with Iran have 'terminated'

The White House is telling Congress that hostilities with Iran have “terminated” despite the continued presence of U.S. armed forces in the region. That message in a letter Friday from President Donald Trump effectively skirts a May 1 legal deadline to gain approval from members of Congress to continue the war with Iran. That deadline was already set to pass without action from Republican lawmakers who are deferring to the president. Trump also makes clear in the letter that the war may be far from over. The letter brings into stark relief the bold but legally questionable assertion of presidential power at the heart of Trump’s war.

Very important listen in my opinion.

If every European listens to this carefully things might begin to change for the better.

About the first point, no #Iran is not able to sell its oil. Apart from that which is already out of Strait of #Hormuz and Gulf of Oman.

About the 3rd, #Trump can arm twist the big oil executives to not allow prices to rise. He has done it previously. Even #Obama did it to #BP after the Gulf of Mexico spill caused by Deep water Horizon.

I hope that peace prevails but it does not look likely.

#DJT is being delusional when he claims that within 3 days the pipes in #Iran's petro-gas infra will blow. #Iran might just allow the pipes to leak crude oil into the Persian gulf, impacting the littoral states of Persian gulf. Leaving them to deal with the spill. In case of Gas there is a concept called as #Flaring.

Whoever is advising #Trump either has his head up their backside or #Trump is making up stuff on the fly.
