Iran Denies Asking US Not To Strike, Says Trump Lied by God1000(op): 1:19pm On Aug 02
Iran’s Mehr news agency on Sunday denied President Donald Trump’s claim that the Islamic republic asked the United States to refrain from conducting new strikes.

Citing military officials, the agency said the allegation “was nothing but a new lie” and that the Iranian armed forces were “on high alert and ready for any eventuality.”

On Saturday, Trump said the US was “ready to go against the Islamic Republic” but that Tehran and other Middle Eastern countries had asked him to hold off on fresh strikes.

He said he had made the decision, subject to reaching a deal with Iran.


“This would include the Immediate, Complete and Total OPENING OF THE HORMUZ STRAIT, and an end to Iran’s nuclear threat,” wrote Trump in a Truth Social post.

On Sunday, Iran’s Fars news agency, citing a source close to Iranian negotiators, said “as long as the United States maintains its hostile actions, the Strait of Hormuz will remain closed.”

Iran has blockaded Hormuz since the start of the war, requiring vessels to obtain permission and pay transit fees before using the waterway.

Whatever evil you think someone is, don't oppress him. By the time you use an excessive power to oppress someone, you will see him having strength from nowhere.

For every power, there are limitations.

you are a kid

Iran has a strategy to raise the cost of this war too high for America and destabilize energy market

This is why it shut strait of Hormuz (economy of the world)

This is also why it prefers to disrupt the gulf nations because they are of bigger value to the world/America than Israel.

Iran has not shy to go ahead to head with Israel when they attack

It's a strategy that is working and saudi crown prince was responsible for prevailing on trump to end the latest escalation cos they know America can't even protect them from Iran

The reality is Gulf nations have accepted the reality that Iran has come to stay as a power block in middle east

Re: Iran Denies Asking US Not To Strike, Says Trump Lied by Dogalmighty17: 3:28pm On Aug 02
We know Iran. We know. Trump lied again. Presently in the whole world, there are less than 700 patriot missiles left. Each missile takes close to 2 years to produce. The US simply doesn't have enough to protect it's assets in the middle east. Ukraine has run out of patriots and that's why Russia is pounding them like cheap OS now.

The US would have struck Iran this weekend from Friday night but MBS the Saudi crown prince called Trump and warned him to back the f up. Iran and Saudi Arabia had spoken earlier and Iran had told the Saudi Arabian foreign minister that if the US attacks its vital energy assets, it will equally attack 11 of the most critical energy assets in the middle east, 7 of which were in Saudi Arabia. Now the most important of this asset, has 170 billion barrels of crude in place. That's several trillion gallons of crude that Iran can take off the market for years to come. Imagine what this will do to the price of crude oil.

The Saudi didn't find this cute so they thanked Iran for the heads-up and within minutes, the Saudi crown prince called Trump and he was woken up from his fat and fast food induced slumber.

It is also worth noting that Israel has told the US that it will sit out the next rounds of strikes against Iran. Here's the thing. When patriot missiles are short, imagine how inadequate David's sling and iron dome will get to be. They all use the same tracking mechanism produced by a Boeing affiliate in the US. That company has a backlog of orders that will last years. So there won't be too many patriots coming off the shelves soon. Guess what? Iran, China and Russia now know this. Which is why China is beginning to pressure Taiwan to go out on a 'date' if you know what I mean. Russia too has now increased pounding of Ukraine and all missiles are finding their targets.

I told you he was bluffing, if he had dared bombed Iran civilian infrastructures all the Gulf countries power plants, water desalinization plants and refineries will be on flames now because they are all within easy reach of Iranian missiles.You would have seen the largest mass migration in human history occur, because no one can live in those desert countries without electricity and fresh water, and the Saudi defense minister was quickly sent by MBS to tell him personally to stop his madness that is why he backed down.

See the level of your ignorance showing little or no intelligence of any sort. Between the US and Israel, are you saying Israel is now the more powerful of the two? Go and learn about strategy and tactics of war before coming forward and be embarrassing yourself publicly.

Same Isreal that begged America to negotiate a ceasefire after getting pummeled by Iranian missiles last year during the 12 days war. They don't need to attack Isreal first, but if Isreal attack them the missiles will do the talking.

No it's you that's GenZ if not , if you know a former US president by the name of George Bush and what he did to Iraq, you won't be overhyping your terrorist Iranian friends. Trump is just being lenient and talking too much..If it had been George Bush, you won't get the mouth to see dey overhype Ur terrorist mullahs by now
Yo. Netu are lying, you should have asked yourself why Iran didn't launch missile strike against Israel or your otondo doesn't know that US aircrafts were refuelling in Tel Aviv ? Netanyahu had earlier issued a warning that if dem born Iran well make dey attack Israel. Assuming Iran has done that, you would have been crying stop the genocide like you cried for HAMAS in Gaza by now

Israel is just an appendage to the United States in principle

If USA pulls out today with shame from it's trapped war are you aware not even netanyahu can mention anything about fighting Iran nuclear again cos it would be sealed at UN.

Netanyahu has been yapping since the 1990's about Iran nuclear guess what it never could act on its own without America

You are just a kid who thinks war is about dropping bomb and, America has done all the bomb it can yet it still can't put off iran

All ur analysis are wrong...

First the US doesn't get any oil from.the strait

Iran is scared of isreali retaliation than that if the US

The Arab nation's are sympathetic to Iran based on religions that is why they refused to attack..lest iran can't win about 6arab nation attacking it Sam time with Us and isreal.

The Saudis long have an alternative route to export oil through the red sea

The USA is acting as protector of the strait only because it sees itself as the primary beneficiary of a stable economic order that entrenches America dollar and it's Gulf allies cashcows (hope you can comprehend)

I think you should stop spewing the same lies of Donald Trump when he himself always says he goes for war cos of benefit

Btw the war is not a religious lens war, it's clearly about who controls middle east as powerhouse

Israel used to see itself as such because of it's bombing abilities but now relegated when America is making decisions on Iran war, it is Iran that controls if anyone will have peace or do business in that middle east now

The reward they are getting for it is deal with united States, possibly tolling the strait once trump finally backs away and also a nuclear freedom, acceptance soon by trump that this is a powerhouse he can no longer dare as he fears Kim Jun on, Putin, xi

Can Israel feed itself without the US?
Re: Iran Denies Asking US Not To Strike, Says Trump Lied by Legitiscool: 4:06pm On Aug 02
From the pendulum I saw at the timesofIsrael today

Both sides could eventually settle for Iran to control all ships coming into the strait while Oman controls them exiting

It's just a fancy way of giving trump a defeat sweet like Iran conceded, meanwhile Iran will be tolling as they initially said from day one while Oman can do free exit.

So don't be surprised when they tell you Iran did deal, it's part of hard negotiation, and yes trump would have to pull out of the war even with the nuclear talk untouched (as Iran insisted on day one)
