Iran is playing games. Open. Closed. Blockaded. Opened.
Does Trump say ok the blockade is over now or what?
I say we keep bombing if they keep playing games.

He takes the win and moves on.

I would say that's a start, but blockade still there till you agree to our list of demands to secure peace.

You don't follow Trump much, do you?

Islamic Iran is going to play games with Trump and run the clock out on his administration. Then they will resume business as usual - with a firm determination to nuke the USA.

Iran couldn't afford to keep it closed, that's the reality. That's where a majority of their national income is coming from.

Ending their nuclear program and leaving the straight alone should be our terms.

I agree this is what Iran will likely ATTEMPT to do, but regardless of what Trump does, Isreal will not allow Iran to take that path.

I don't know but there is a LENGTHY record now that would indicate that it will involved "winning".

A deal was made
We own Kharg Island and the oil
They get to call it the strait of Iran for a Vanity win
The panicans take another L

This is the correct move to continue the blockade.
Otherwise we'd be implicitly agreeing that Iran can control the strait.
Iran can't say it's open or closed.

The terms were all or none - seems like they are saying all.
I agree it would be better for negotiations to keep them shut off, but this is what he wanted. For now at least.

Was open until we inserted ourselves. Oil company just made bank for a month or so.

No games.
China wants to buy discounted Iranian oil, and Iran needs money to rebuild its military, nuclear ambitions, and terrorist network.
Of course Iran wants to open its oil flow.
