So we've reached the point where Iran is trying to open the strait of Hormuz to ship traffic but the United States is blockading it.
So topsy-turvy. Next think you know the US president will be praising Allah in social media posts.

Why does Trump suddenly think he's playing Uno?

Just fuck already.
Tired of this will they/won’t they bullshit.
replies:
ok, to untangle this a bit because it's not very clear for some:
- Iran has opened a specific route of passage through the Strait of Hormuz
- The US is maintaining the blockade specifically on Iranian ports until certain conditions are met, including:
- the clearing of mines from the Strait, assisted by Iran
- something involving the transfer of unspecified nuclear materials from Iran to the US, although exactly what/when/how remains unclear
- likely other unmentioned conditions
- further negotiations
replies:
There's no way Iran will keep the Strait open now, right?
replies:
im kinda surprised his response was they are going to double secret block the straight.
