THE FOG IS LIFTING …THIS GUY LAYS IT ALL OUT….HINDSIGHT IS 20 20

One of Trump’s greatest strength’s is his strategic unpredictability. An uncanny ability to game out a situation well in advanced and approach an obstacle in unconventional ways.

Take the Iran war.

Phase I- Military Phase

The United States took out:

Iran’s Airforce
Iran’s Navy
Iran’s leadership + Ayatollah
Depleted at LEAST half their missiles
Iran’s Arab neighbors joined the US+Israel

Iran’s play? Choke the Strait of Hormuz.

Gas prices rose worldwide and that led to diplomacy.

At this point, neocon influencers, foreign bots and disinformation super spreaders claimed Iran had won! They claimed that Trump was not prepared for that obvious maneuver and that he was caught off guard.

That led to Trump’s “Civilization Ending” ultimatum that brought Iran to the table.

That’s where Phase II begins

Phase II- The Agreement

Trump boxed himself with multiple posts where he laid out his goals:

… Iran gives up nuclear material
….No uranium enrichment
….Does not fund proxies
….No missile program
….Opens the straight of Hormuz

It was either accept THIS or Hell on Earth.

As days passed it was clear the sham ceasefire was not being followed. Iran kept blocking Hormuz. Fighting was still happening and it seemed there was a BINARY choice:

….Diplomacy works and Iran and US reach an agreement that’s acceptable to both parties.

…Bombing Starts again

Diplomacy failed and it looked like option B was back on the table.

But then Trump in Art of War fashioned a genius chess move:

Instead of bombing , or even retreating, HE took Iran’s card, and decided the U.S would block Hormuz.

This masterstroke did the following

….Allowed the United States to become the global exporter of oil ans thousands of tankers made their way to the Gulf of America to buy oil

…..Closed off access to Iranian and Chinese tankers who now can’t pass the American blockade and get their oil .

For Iran this is $400+ million PER day that is in the red and $13 billion per month in a country whose economy was already in SHAMBLES even before the bombing campaign.

Now?

Iran wants to negotiate. Begging for a deal.

Now the US has the upper hand. They always did but now it’s clear.
