The #MiddleEast is once again teetering on the brink as #Trump appears poised to reignite war with #Iran. Press reports indicate he will convene military advisers on Tuesday,...Over the past several hours, Trump has flooded Truth Social with a barrage of incendiary threats. While some of this may be theatrical brinkmanship designed to force Tehran into submission, sources in the Iranian capital tell me they expect the #US to resume hostilities within the next 48 hours.

We should first recognize that restarting the war amounts to an admission that Trump’s previous escalatory gambit — the blockade of the blockade — has failed.

The report also said the CIA has found that Tehran retains “significant ballistic missile capabilities” ...

The CIA report flies in the face of public statements by the Trump administration, which has claimed that the vast majority of #Iran’s drone and missile capabilities have been destroyed.

The #US has said that Iran is running out of storage space for its oil...

Analysts have told #MEE that Iran has “weeks” of storage space left.

Trump Escalates Military Threats in Hormuz as Iran Prepares for New Round of U.S.-Israeli Bombings and Assassinations

#Trump is scrambling to find a way to declare victory in the #war against #Iran—vacillating between public demands to make a deal and threats to unleash a new round of massive bombing. The #US naval #blockade on the #StraitOfHormuz has sparked a global economic and #EnergyCrisis, and neither the blockade nor Trump’s threats have resulted in Iranian capitulation or a willingness to forfeit any of its rights to control maritime traffic in the Strait.

“Based on current assessments, another military attack seems likely. [Trump’s] goals from the naval blockade haven’t been achieved,” the official said. “He can’t keep the blockade going for much longer."

Text of letter if the link doesn’t work:

What am I missing? The president says that we are a net exporter of oil. If this is the case, we are selling our oil for quite a bit more than before the war with Iran began. Those profits should be given back to us for those of us using the pumps. If we don’t need their oil, why are we paying the price for those that do? What am I missing?

Letter writer asks, “What am I missing?”

No, my friend, your observations are spot on. Oil oligarchs are capitalists with no sense of compassion, patriotism, or decency.
