Trump, in a Truth Social post, said the decision was based in part on “the fact that Great Progress has been made toward a Complete and Final Agreement” with Iran.

“Based on the request of Pakistan and other Countries, the tremendous Military Success that we have had during the Campaign against the Country of Iran and, additionally, the fact that Great Progress has been made toward a Complete and Final Agreement with Representatives of Iran, we have mutually agreed that, while the Blockade will remain in full force and effect, Project Freedom (The Movement of Ships through the Strait of Hormuz) will be paused for a short period of time to see whether or not the Agreement can be finalised and signed.”

Well, it was kind of a success. The Maersk ship the US got out was under DoD contract. Another ship got out too. Making it Ships as two is plural.

I think the whole huffha was about getting that one ship out. Then hopefully, maybe, it would start a stampede of merchant ships leaving. Iran can shoot them all after all.

Sadly, insurers and shipowners were not overwhelmed with confidence.

But hey, the market was pumped to new highs. So now we wait for the sad news that will sink the market again. Its like a weekly pump-dump cycle insiders can get very rish off.

"can someone explain why we would pause it? (& why anyone would request we do so)"

Pakistan was upset with the prospect of ships making it out of the gulf without paying Iran a toll ... or something.

Trump decides when to pause or to continue, he's the boss. Iran has to accept that or it's stone age time!

Iran has hit far more U.S. military assets than reported, satellite images show

Imagery published by Iranian state-affiliated media and verified by The Post shows damage to at least 228 structures or pieces of equipment at U.S. military sites.

so is it a mix of being a failure plus just completely bowing to Iran, saying 'sorry we tried to interfere w/ your blockage, please please please give us some deal we can call a win?'

(which seems to be the case by any info about it, haven't seen anyone anywhere suggesting anything else... though obviously putting spin on it)

---

anyway, here's what our fuckhead liar claiming today:
"
Assuming Iran agrees to give what has been agreed to, which is, perhaps, a big assumption [[yeah it is as you're lying about what they agreed to]], the already legendary Epic Fury will be at an end, and the highly effective Blockade will allow the Hormuz Strait to be OPEN TO ALL, including Iran. If they don’t agree, the bombing starts, and it will be, sadly, at a much higher level and intensity than it was before. Thank you for your attention to this matter! President DONALD J. TRUMP
"

& no, bombing won't start (unless Israel pinpoints more leaders to kill), he's going to keep dragging feet & claiming a great deal coming & eventually settle on something to claim is greatest deal ever
(while it being a complete waste)


an illegal war/'excursion' (no imminent threat), waste of tens of billions, w/ taxpayers suffering directly w/ gas prices, did nothing (so far) to address Iran's only threat (terrorism, only higher now) & nuclear ambitions (no effect)... all chosen by 1 idiot (again, illegally)
(yet no hint of their being punishment, beyond voter disapproval)

"shows damage to at least 228 structures or pieces of equipment at U.S."

Holy shit! 228 'structures or pieces of equipment' were damaged in total? That's it you'll conquer the US for sure at this rate

"Major damage"

Lmfao.

what have we achieved? (that matters)

(from this illegal operation, can't include the bombing of nuclear sites a year ago even though dictator keeps trying to slide it in as part of it)

”So the US is back to a worse version of a nuclear agreement they already had with Iran, and in order to get there, they had to make a number of concessions including lifting sanctions against Iran and releasing their frozen funds, and the US had their military bases in the region destroyed in the process, the dollar tanked, the Emirates want to get out of OPEC, China and the Yen got stronger, Russia's economy recovered, Trump's rating got a hit domestically, and the US got humiliated internationally. And it cost them a billion dollars per day or so. Great Success!” — from internet

Ayatollah dead
Iranian air defense nearly gone
50ish% Iranian missile infrastructure destroyed
Many top dumbasses killed
Iranian navy gone except some fastboats
Excellent practice for our guys
Blockaded
Europe looks like mega cowards again.

Maybe next time, the JewSA should pick on someone who is even more smaller and weaker than Iran. (The pedo principle). I doubt the USA can lose to Greenland? Or can they?

You look impotent. That is a huge problem. At least from your perspective.

As to the rest:

1. If we cant have it, we will break it
2 Be reasonable or we will have to use force
3. Now look what you made us do.

The three pillars of US posture has withstood the test of time :).

The overlap with an abusive partner is 100%. Not coincidentally.

I got the order wrong:

2. If we cant have it, we will break it.
3. Now look what you made us do.

Nice!

It definitely feels like we are not doing much.

Like on a day by day basis it feels less like a war and more like we are over there, periodically we are doing this or that and they periodically do something but not much.

Project Freedom halted after Saudi Arabia suspended US use of its military bases, airspace

Trump's sudden announcement of Project Freedom surprised and angered the leadership in Riyadh, which announced that it would not allow the US to use Prince Sultan Air Base or pass through its airspace

A call between Trump and Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman did not resolve the crisis, the two U.S. officials said, forcing the president to halt the project in order to restore the U.S. military’s access to vital airspace
