"OH YEAH, YOU'RE GOING TO BLOCK THE STRAIT OF HORMUZ AND DRIVE UP THE PRICE OF OIL? WELL, WE CAN DO THAT TOO!! NYAH NYAH NYAH NYAH"

Now I'm confused. According to CENTCOM, the Navy is conducting mine clearing operations to open up the Strait but the guy who issues orders via social media is claiming to close it? 🤷♀️

Faraiwe@Dougfir @ai6yr at this point, I doubt ANYONE at the Pentagon (or Tampa) even knows wtf is going on.
The sound you heard is the collective clatter of several clipboards and paper flying across rooms.
The second sound was the mouse clicks of anyone over O-4 checking when they can drop their retirement paperwork.
MissConstrueI mean, the thing is, if osint is correct, and it often is, then centcom is down their 1.6 billion dollar radar from the February strike, the spy plane got bombed real good, Israeli radars are hit, warships don’t have thaad, we’re almost out of thaad ammo anyway, and running destroyers into the strait looks a lot like a suicide run.
I fear that trump is using our ships as bait. He’s willing to sacrifice thousands of service personnel so he can escalate this war and get the public on his side.
I am afraid he is intentionally sacrificing pawns because he thinks he can checkmate the IRGC, which…they do not care of a thousand ensigns die, why would they.
There isn't only one Triton, or surface-based radars. We do have eyes on the air space.
We are down 80+% of our smart ordnance, not only THAAD missiles. It's gonna take us 2-5yrs to replenish. With luck.
As for bait, sure, exactly what happened in 2018 forced crossing in the face of Houthis.
I am not sold on the 'tRump thinks" thing, because this is Bibi+MBS leasing our military, using Slenderman and KKKegseth as local mouthpieces.
Nothing will go right.
Airplanista 🇺🇦@Dougfir @ai6yr You guys are not alone. It is an absolute #shitshow. Feels like "vibe" governance, rule by social media, lie about everything, surround yourself with inexperienced ass-kissers, and say whatever will raise the stock markets.
If this follows recent patterns, oil futes could jump today when markets open.
Rome burns while Nero watches UFC fights and plays golf.

I'm thinking if the destroyers really did pass through the Strait, there would be photos of them in some clearly identifying place.
