Oil tumbles 10% and the Dow soars more than 1,000 points after Iran reopens the Strait of Hormuz

Feel stupid yet? And just like that no “endless war” the markets fully recovered and oil dropped below $85. All of the left and Trump conspiracy theorists look absolutely ridiculous about now. Every ridiculous conspiracy theory debunked. Plus a 10 day ceasefire between Israel and Lebanon that includes Hezbollah (although no one believes Hezbollah)

 "The Strait of Hormuz is "COMPLETELY OPEN AND READY FOR BUSINESS AND FULL PASSAGE, BUT THE NAVAL BLOCKADE WILL REMAIN IN FULL FORCE AND EFFECT AS IT PERTAINS TO IRAN, ONLY, UNTIL SUCH TIME AS OUR TRANSACTION WITH IRAN IS 100% COMPLETE."

Dumb comparison seeing oil always rises during conflicts. Oil was 2.50 a barrel in 1950. That’s how relevant that is

Do you really think this is over?

Do you really think this is over?

Of course not but this is huge although never is a long time

Iran has agreed to never close the Strait of Hormuz again. It will no longer be used as a weapon against the World! President DONALD J. TRUMP

I wouldn't trust Iran on this or anything else.

I was told by someone I know who follows this stuff closely and always seems to be right, that the literal translation of the english "wiping out a civilization" to arabic/persian has a subtle difference, and was appropriate.

That's one I'm not going to bother to check, but I did find this guy's explanation of the rhetoric interesting.  He was criticizing Shawn Ryan here:

As a former SEAL that has sat in briefing rooms in theater, run ops against jihadist networks, and built a platform interviewing many sharp people in both operations and intelligence, you of all people should understand how strategic warfare actually works.

Despite all of that, you are sitting here and pushing posts like a cable news commentator with rimmed glasses on a communist news network, framing decisive pressure against the world's leading state sponsor of militant jihadist terrorism as "chaos" and "loss."

Let's cut through this selective timeline you laid out:

Trump issued a brutal, unmistakable warning over the Strait of Hormuz, the chokepoint Iran's regime was weaponizing to strangle global energy and fund its proxies.

That wasn't just some bluster for fun, it was quite literally combatant messaging 101 in asymmetric conflict against an enemy that only respects raw and credible power.

Jihadist Islamists like the IRGC, Hezbollah, Hamas, Houthis, and their ilk don't negotiate in good faith or respond to polite diplomacy, and you absolutely know this.

They only respond to negotiations from positions of strength.

If you do not negotiate that way, they will probe weaknesses, exploit hesitation, and interpret restraint as invitations to push attacks.

History from the Beirut barracks to the USS Cole to Benghazi and to decades of proxy attacks has proven that.

You've had guests that have spoken about these things, yet you act ignorant of them now?

This apocalyptic rhetoric is the only language these people understand, and you know it.

Iran blinked because of that rhetoric, floated a ceasefire tied to reopening the strait, and the administration secured a pause to lock in gains. That is not "lighting the world on fire then calling the fire department," you two bit propagandist, that is literally the way war has always worked.

It is coercion through strength: downgrade the enemy's capacity, signal willingness to escalate decisively, then offer the off ramp on your terms.

It's wild that you are ignorant about this.

That's one I'm not going to bother to check, but I did find this guy's explanation of the rhetoric interesting.  He was criticizing Shawn Ryan here:

This is what I wrote on my substack a day or two after he said that. If you’ve ever read Sun Tzu’s Art of War, what he did was textbook.

“This is in reference to President Trumps comments about wiping out a civilization. I’ll admit that even I was taken aback by what was said in his Truth Social post but had to step back and really take a look at his words. Harsh and extremely threatening, yes and knowing the man usually means what he says should be taken literally.

But his rhetoric was in the form of extreme psychological warfare to either get the enemies to either come to the table and negotiate or surrender or face the consequences.

Obviously, the extreme psychological warfare worked. Iran blinked, came to the table and a double ceasefire was had. If you have ever read the book “The Art of War” by Sun Tzu this is discussed. Trump has publicly shown his appreciation for Sun Tzu and has referenced his writings”

So if the ceasefire holds, Iran will just let ships through the Strait again... Like they were doing before we triggered all of this?

I just don’t see the win here. At best, we’re minimizing our losses. I never bought the idea that Iran was on the verge of getting nuclear weapons, and even if they were, those weapons would’ve been aimed at Saudi Arabia, Israel, or Turkey. Not us. Killing the Ayatollah didn’t change much either. The new one is cut from the same cloth.

In the end, we’ve spent blood and money just to get back to square one, minus the costs of the airstrikes and the blockade. If we pull out now and call it a victory, it’s still a far smaller disaster than Iraq or Afghanistan. I guess that’s something.

HAHA

this guy nearly bankrupted them already (twice now) and is at it again.

Iran admitted (and even bragged) to having 450kilos of 60% enriched uranium. Enough for 11 nuclear bombs.

I have no beef with you, but if you don't counter his post and just do ad hominem attacks, your post is worthless.

Do you have any thoughts on the context of what we were discussing?

[Necrosis]

All I see with this post is gibberish and deflection. Someone told me they thought you were smart and "obviously educated" but they recently PMd me that they were wrong and believe you are trying to use AI to sound smart. Pretty sad facade you have attempted to create here.

Lol, what a weird troll hahaha. Also, deflection? read the posts. It's clear as day.

Secret pm's! accusations of AI!! well if you think or they think I am using AI then I must be quite smart. Thanks for the compliment man.

This angle won't work. Only one that worked was the grammar thing as it's clearly awful and I am lazy wrt writing.

Back to the drawing board. Hysteresis is a bitch though, I doubt you can escape it's wake as it echo's through your lil mind.

I will take this banter as a form of sublimation, although, I am not sure it's constructive.
