This is going to cost billions in dollars in insurance payouts once Iran hit three tankers.

Iran's entire strategy is to make this war as painful as possible for the US. If American taxpayers are on the hook for massive insurance losses that only makes the tankers bigger targets.

Sounds like what the Houthis tried in Yemen.

They didn't just try the Houthis has succeed for three years in closing up the Red Sea for transportation of cargo ships. Now with both the Red Sea and the Strait of Hormuz closures, it is going to be a mess. That is why Trump is promising our grandchildren, maybe great-grandchildren financial futures away by promising to insure these cargo ships.

How does that even work with the navy escorts? Are they able to defend against a drone strike?

US navy ships will intercept Iranian missiles by placing themselves in the way.

Just put Phalanx CIWS everywhere.

Just need to take care of Turkey, Yemen and Pakistan, Saudi Arabia and then Israel will be satisfied. Hopefully, Israel can then accept a "Greater Israel" rather than the "Greatest Israel"

How embarrassing.

I thought IRGC was completely eliminated? Someone is lying.

We now need to hurt one of our allies, South Korea, and take the radar and missile defense system used to prevent a North Korean missile there and take that to the Me not to protect American citizens and troops but to protect Israel because their iron dome is flopping

Wait, what??
All of our military bases in the region are destroyed?

Yes

That’s insane. Congress needs to tell him no. A clear unambiguous no. Taxpayers cannot cover political risk in the Gulf ever. And definitely not in the middle of a hot war.

Great idea! I’m sure there are plenty of pro-US democracy-minded militias running around the Middle East. Certainly no chance we’d end up with the next ISIS in charge.

The US is really desperate.trump is dragging us down. Apparently trump called Iraqis and asked them to fight Iran for him. The shamelessness would be hilarious if it wasnt tragic
