Why can't the almighty US Navy open up a tiny, tiny strait for 100s of ships to pass through unimpeded?
because they're blockading it
>>534730565They're blockading Iranian ships. Why can't the premier blue-water force escort American/Western ships by the hundreds and ensure free navigation of movement in this small strait?
>>534730728How much are you paying?
>>534731020just answer the question you dumbfuck migger piece of shit
>>534730495I know this is a facetious question posed in bad faith but the answer is that all it takes is one drones or missile to blow up ships carrying millions of barrels of a highly flammable substance. They could sail beside the tankers and shoot down most of the incoming projectiles, but again, all it takes is one well-placed one to get through.
>>534731079You seem really upset for some weird reason. Do you normally do stuff for free like jannie?
>>534730495you have 1 working shipnot sure if you were aware of that or not.>>534730728why cant you guys?(jk i already told you)
>>534731262Why do you talk to it like it's an Englishman instead of some sandnigger?
Because it's a total Bobo victory
>>534731306>english>sandniggerthey are the same thing now anon.
>>534731529No, they're not and you fell for the D&C.
>>534731552my bad bro
>>534731020Bro just admit we fucking suck at this point.
>>534730495>implying 'they' want it openlol, lmao eben.
Iran has thousands of 10 meter CEP ballistic missiles, which can be essentially launched from anywhere in Iran and sink a tanker. They have anchored and drift mines, drift mines which can be moved around the Gulf by changing their bouyancy to catch different currents. They have thousands of anti ship cruise missiles and launchers, which could sit anywhere along the length of their coast and pick targets. They have combat speedboats, which are set up in camouflaged berths along the coastline. Some of these are remotely controlled and carry a 300kg efp device that would rip straight through a carrier, let alone a tanker. They have one way attack drones that can go on a planned attack path or be remotely guided. They have undersea drones. They still have aircraft and helicopters. They have real time intelligence from commercial sources like keplr and marine traffic but also the Chinese imagery satellite they purchased, Russian sigint assistance, and their own rather adept intelligence apparatus, especially in the Gulf states. What the fuck do you expect America to do here? To stop the threat set Iran has deployed you have to completely conquer Iran, or at least control the first 150 km from the coast, meaning 5 million boots on the ground. That isn't happening. There is nothing that the US can do to make a strait transit an acceptable risk for the operators and insurers of the hundred of ships still in the Gulf. Trump will capitulate and hand Iran 4 billion dollars in frozen funds and end sanctions and even then he will still have to allow Iran to tax all transits. This was an entirely predictable situation and has been explained to every president by the intelligence agencies since like... Carter. But Trump and Hegseth were just so fucking smart they didn't need to read.
>>534731246Traitors like you should be killed, yes.
>>534731645That's really important to you isn't it fellow American from America? High petrol prices have you down?>>534731959Wow, your upset really escalated. Kinda funny ngl.
>>534731991Kill yourself kike. You aren't even human.
>>534732009>upset intensifies further
>>534730495because people haven't forgotten about the Epstein files yet.
Because it is a really, really tiny strait. The navigable channel through it is only about 2 miles wide, which means there that any defensive force in the strait has little maneuvering room, and that it's really easy to saturate it with mines. On top of this, the terrain on the Iranian side is mostly mountainous, which badly interferes with radar coverage. A supersonic missile coming over those mountains after using them to mask its approach could impact a target less than 10 seconds later. That is a very short engagement window, basically precluding the use of SAM. Normally USN fleet defense is heavily skewed toward beyond-the-horizon engagements, and if anything gets close enough for CIWS to engage it, that means someone fucked up very, very badly.
>>534732023Yes, seeing you kikes gut this nation would make any sane white person mad.
>>534731959Traitors brought you into war halfway around the world but you ain't ready for that conversation goyim
>>534730495Naval mines are a pain in the ass to deal with. Give it time. Iran is shutting its oil fields down. The longer this goes on, the more they lose. Eventually they'll starve to death. Food won't be there. They're going to lose one way or another. They're stubborn and refuse to admit defeat, but defeat is inevitable because everyone around them wants them gone. It's like a pitbull surrounded by mastiffs and wolfhounds.
>>534732257I already said kikes did that, yes.
>>534732205So you are mad then?
>>534730728Maybe Trump is just purposely not getting it open until all the oil companies make record profits first.
>>534730495>>534730728Why don't you do it if it's so easy?
>>534731206>long-winded cope about why America can’t defend shipping anymorelol, lmao
>>534732324Of course, who wouldn't be mad that you kikes exist.
>>534732646Good, be mad.
>>534732277ah yes, Iran’s massive oil economy will shut down and it’ll cripple their country any day now.
>>534732725Wow, what a retarded and useless chart chang.
>>534732661You remember what happened the last time the white man got mad at you, kike?
>>534730495America is nowhere near as powerful as they pretend to be.
>>534732931I'm not a kike love, just enjoying your brown anger. Please share it more with me since I enjoy it.
>>534732816>says the retard currently losing to sandniggers yet again
>>534733179Yeah sure you aren't, kike. That's what your kind always says.
>>534733269ok chang>>534733278as long as you're angry and making angry posts for my amusement
>>534733368>>534732816it's presumably a chart of irans economy.
>>534732277>Iran is shutting its oil fields downit's funny how much traction this propaganda has been gettingi think it's saudi arabia, kuwait, qatar, bahrain and the uae that are being forced to shut down their oil fields
>>534733482Y not all of them and Iran? Problem with oil is that it's not a faucet you can turn on and off. If you stop pumping, the shutdown becomes basically permanent.
>>534733526>Y not all of them and Iran?the gulf states haven't been able to get any oil out of the persian gulf since february 28, which means kuwait, bahrain and qatar are completely fucked while saudi and the uae can only export half of their production through the pipelinesmeanwhile iran was exporting at full capacity until april 13, when trump started his blockade, and besides the one that was reportedly hit on monday, i don't think trump has dared to stop a single chinese ship going to iran
>>534733837>i don't think trump has dared to stop a single chinese ship going to iranIran just did lmao
