Before USA threw the first stone (missile), what threat was the same Iran causing the same ships passing through that same strait for decades?!!

Abi, America was the one protecting them all those years?!!


At some point, your very thick skulls will have to realize that this is not Muslim vs Christians..!

That none of those nations care about you or your religions or politics.


Make una try dey get sense... 2026 is already far gone.
So because of Hormuz you want to stand aside and let Iran have nukes?

Some Nigerians here supporting this guy. Let me say as wahala dey happen for Nigeria. Make Dem come kill you family and say Dem suspected them to be the one abating crime in Nigeria.
Would u look for peace when the govt feels neither sorry for killing your family.
The hurt, the feelings and irreplaceable damage.
If Iran is sponsoring terrorism let them be punished. But I don't support killing all service chief. Are u telling me all those service chief are criminals? Including ayantola grand daughter?
If this the way you reason then you are suppose to be late now for your attrocities

For protecting ships that are going to pass through of course....and the threat they're going to be protecting the ships from is Iran.
Wouldn’t it just be cheaper for those ships to pay Iran their 1m dollars (1%) and pass through than pay trump 20% + threats of mines, missile and drone attacks

Which deal do you think they will take?

Lol... Who doesn't have nukes?!!

What about North Korea?!! Who decides who should and who shouldn't have nukes?!!

Who did America consult when they decided to nuke innocent lives in Japan over a century ago?!!

Imposition of charges by the U.S is tactical

because other countries refused to get involved in clearing that straight, so since the straight is that important, they must pay the fee, because the US uses it resources through tav payers money to open the straight, and the money must be recovered, if you don't like it use other route's.
is as simple as that 😊

Hmmm ... he's taking control of the strait again. It shouldn't be hard .... after all ... Iran's navy is at the bottom of the sea and its planes decimated. Trump is desperate ... and with the oil reserves at critcal level ... he's clutching at straws.

Iran won don anything,
Just random missiles here and there until they get tired.
Iran as a whole is no a match for New York State in terms of war,
their religiously brainwashed followers thinks war is fought by prayers.
You can only face reality when you sop being delusional.
Product of too much of Hollywood movies. Delusional timelines

Stop gloating in ignorance, the premium on issuance is the problem, insurance companies in London will be hesitant to insure the ships.

Righteousness2:
You don't Negotiste with Terrorists who sole desire is your Destruction, You Destroy them and all their Capabilities.

It's unfortunate that the US led President Trump fell for the gimmicks of the Iranian Terrorists.
He would have Listened to ISRAEL. All these would hv been long gone.
Now he has go over again and again

The Iranian Terror Leadership are in Deep Excruciating Pains. They have been Deeply and Painful Destroyed.
So much of their fathers , leaders, commanders were destroyed like chickens.

What forced them to screaming for peace negotiations is the Destructions Inflicted. What will make them submit Totally is FATAL DESTRUCTION.

President Trump Listen to PM Netanyahu and ISRAEL else he will keep going in Circles

The Middleeast is not a place where you do Gentleman.
The Language Terrorists understand is the Language ISRAEL Speaks .

You don't get Real peace from signing paper,
It's From War, that you get PEACE.
The Enemies Submits only when it's Totally Crushed.
Mr Trump thinks he is dealing with normal humans. He doesn't know that Islamic terrorists' brains are different from what humans possess.
