Sorry to say this for first time the war started I think the US and Isreal should dealt with Iran as they did to Iraq cus I noticed they want an escalated confrontation so let's see how far they will go.

Same Russia and Chinaa that stood behind Saddam ended up dumping him and was left to die miserably.

Tou all worshippers of diety of kar-bar the goddess of lunar una go hear word by force.

Ask for the wisdom of understanding from God. Your brain should have told you what I meant here is : it’s dangerous being an American soldier cos their leaders must look for a war to fight by all means, even if there is peace. They are War mongers and you know it.

They want to go waste the lives of innocent soldiers. The Iranians who celebrate death. Don't ever underestimate the power of evil, the USA underestimate the Iranians, they thought they were like Venezuelans. Trump go explain tire.

Terrorist are cowards.
You don't beg coward.
The only language they understand is violence.
So give them violence.
To me the war end the very day the Grand father of all Terrorist network was killed violently and sent to hell Ali Khamenei.
Every other thing Iran is doing now is to lose in honour.

The report states the trip from Taiwan to the Staights will take two weeks. A whole lot can happen in half a month. Also US Marines are land forces not Naval power. Secretary Hegseth seems clueless as a strategic leader.

Edit: #SendBarron 😉
what is the meaning of marine

US must change their approach b4 fighting another serious war. Conventional war pattern has changed.

They must quickly focus on producing mass cheap war weapons. Like cheap drones and interceptors, more advanced laser detectors, more ICBM and hypersonic missiles.

The Chinese, Iranian, Russians etc have built many cheaper and effective weapons.

If this war stretches to 3 more weeks or more, they will be waisting more than $3 trillion to sustain it.

Their 3 aircraft carriers in the sea can be destroyed in this war if care is not taken. They are just lucky that swarm drones and very fast Chinese anti ship missiles have not yet been launched at them.

Once strategic aim has been achieved, Trump needs to pull out of the war otherwise things will become more uncontrollable.

I like your War analysis.
Yes I will agree with you, the moment their strategic aim is achieved America should pull out ASAP.
To me the war ended the very day the Grand father of all Terrorist network Ali Khamenei was slaughtered.
It is time to pull out.
There may never be another Ali Khamenei again for a very long time.
It is the end of an era.

Trump is too egotistical. After all the sweet mouth of finishing Iranian navy and their capabilities, why do you still need 5k troops for that small strait?

To be a soldier is not easy o, no wonder Fela called them zombie.
Sending humble 5,000 souls into fight that's not on US.
Sending troops won't stop Iran from throwing missiles; this not Venezuela

https://www.telegraph.co.uk/us/news/2026/03/13/trump-sends-military-to-open-strait-of-hormuz-by-force/

Donald Trump is deploying 5,000 US marines to the Middle East to reopen the Strait of Hormuz.

Pete Hegseth, US defence secretary, has approved a request from US Central Command – which oversees American military operations in the region – to deploy part of a Marine Amphibious Ready Group, the 31st Marine Expeditionary Unit, and the USS Tripoli, according to the Wall Street Journal.

The USS Tripoli was seen in the Bashi Channel, between Taiwan and the Philippines, on its way to the Middle East on Friday night.

Iran said it was closing the strait shortly after the United States and Israel began their attacks on February 28. Iranian strikes have since hit multiple vessels in the area including oil tankers.

Yesterday US officials reported that Iran had begun laying mines in the Gulf channel, which carries 20 per cent of the world’s oil.

The USS Tripoli was stationed out of Japan and would take around two weeks to reach the Mideast.

Fresh breath for Islamists of Nigeria. The Middle East will now occupy the minds of Americans.
