Kind of figured they would grow to like the current situation. I fully expect that the US will tell them that, if they want to keep the Strait closed down, they will do so without power plants and without any oil exports of their own.

I expect they will come around eventually if we do that.

And what do you think will happen exactly when you make the nation of Iran unhabitable basically?

Really like engaging in a MAD race to the bottom with physically dirty camel-fucking doon coons. Really seeing tons of potential for this to go really WELL for improving the lives of middle Americans.

God forbid we just DIDN'T stick our nose into this shitpile of a country in the middle of the world's worst ecological-cultural wasteland. What then!?!?

Honestly, these type things are inherently crapshoots. The Maduro op could have VERY easily ended up with a couple of Chinook helicopters full of Delta troops being shot down in Caracas.

The conventional wisdom was that political pressure from China and the Gulf countries would prevent Iran from closing the Strait of Hormuz. Not only did that not happen, but Iran has discovered the huge leverage that it has by doing so.

The only way to - possibly - combat that is by making it too painful for them to make this the new normal.

This entire conversation is misplaced. You're talking about how to probabilistically make the next, best-possible chess move in some geopolitical match to achieve some stupid fucking outcome (that is literally, no-AntiSemitemo, just for Israel).

Say this goes perfectly, like the maduro thing: neutral result; does not help the american people. Any deviation from perfection is bad.

"The conventional wisdom was that political pressure from China and the Gulf countries would prevent Iran from closing the Strait of Hormuz"

wut? "but they'll close the strait" has been the obvious, well known retort holding back neocons from attacking iran for decades
