Chapter 1: Why is Donald Trump panicking over Iran's response?
Donald Trump is panicking as Iran is publicly mocking him for saying he's putting on a blockade over the entire Persian Gulf. Iran says, look, we want to reach a resolution so long as you negotiate within the 10-point framework that you previously agreed to. But now that you're just escalating and talking about imposing a blockade,
It's the reason why you can't do a deal with Donald Trump and his regime. It's the reason why negotiations failed in Islamabad. And now you're saying you're going to impose a blockade. You do realize that by doing that, you would only be further closing the Strait of Hormuz. So your plan to open the Strait of Hormuz.
is now to put a blockade on everyone internationally from doing any business basically in the strait of hormuz i know the centcom statement said well the blockade only applies to ships going into an iranian port
well it's much more murky than that if you actually understand the flow of oil because when you look at the persian gulf oftentimes iranian oil moves to other areas and areas that are considered to depart from iranian ports end up stopping by in nearby countries so that it doesn't just stop in an iranian port but Okay, Trump regime and CENTCOM, you're doing a blockade at 10 a.m.
Chapter 2: What are the implications of Trump's naval blockade threats?
today. That's what you're saying. We'll see how long that actually lasts, because with everything, you've tended to back down right away. I mean, the Iranian social media accounts are posting things like this in response to U.S. CENTCOM's threats about imposing a blockade today. They write... You know you can't execute a blockade by posting on X, right?
Like you have to actually bring your ships closer. That's what the United States has become right now. And it's so hard to kind of wrap our heads around how utterly weak. I know Trump's weak and pathetic, but you've got Iran mocking CENTCOM. Iran is mocking CENTCOM and saying, you know, if you want to do a blockade, CENTCOM, you got to move your ships closer.
I mean, you remember two days ago during those failed negotiations in Islamabad, Pakistan, where CENTCOM posted that two Navy destroyers went through the Strait of Hormuz and engaged in a successful mine sweeping operation. And then it turned out it was utterly false. And yesterday, video emerged of Iranian naval vessels approaching the U.S.
naval destroyer saying, turn around or we will destroy you. And the U.S. naval destroyers complied and turned around and then CENTCOM lied and claimed it was a successful mission. That is how weak and pathetic Donald Trump is, that that is what he's turned our proud and strong Navy into.
In the hands of a weak and pathetic human being like Donald Trump, even the strongest Navy, the strongest army, the strongest military is reduced to becoming a Trumpian bankrupted casino. It is a sad sight to see. Iran right now is saying, okay, you do that blockade, you know what we do next? We will shut down the Bab al-Mandeb Strait in the Red Sea.
Not only can we control the Strait of Hormuz, but our proxies, the Houthis in Yemen, they're right there by the Red Sea, and we will shut down the other strait. And all oil flows will be completely shut down. Have fun with your $200 per barrel of oil there, Donald Trump.
Ali Akbar Valiati, a former Iranian foreign minister and veteran diplomat known for his influence within the establishment, warned on Sunday that unified command of the resistance front views the Bab al-Mandib straight as it does Hormuz. By the way, the resistant front, that means the Houthis over there.

Chapter 3: How has Iran reacted to the U.S. blockade threats?
Quote, if the White House dares to repeat its foolish mistakes, it will soon realize that the flow of global energy and trade can be disrupted with a single move, Valiati wrote, and it was reported by Iranian state-owned press. Then you had Moshin Razi, a former Islamic Revolutionary Guard commander and senior Iranian official, posted the following.
America, just as it suffered a historic defeat against Iran in failing to open the Strait of Hormuz, is also doomed to failure in its maritime blockade. Iran's armed forces will not grant America such permission again. and possesses major untapped levers for countering it. Iran is not a place to be blockaded with tweets and fanciful schemes.
Again, mocking the Trump regime as being a paper tiger social media account as opposed to a viable international power. Again, humiliating for the United States that that's what we've been reduced to. Even the New York Post is reporting. I mean, that's a Murdoch paper. Majority of Iran's fast attack ships remain patrolling the Strait of Hormuz and are still intact.
Yes, a majority of Iran's naval fast ships patrolling the Strait of Hormuz are intact. And as Patricia Marins writes, and she's been very good on these issues, She writes, repeating what I said a few days ago, Iran still has at least 30 patrol ships equipped with missiles and torpedoes, plus hundreds of other fast boats also equipped with missiles and some classes with torpedoes.
Hundreds more boats have rocket launchers, many of which have already received guidance kits. It is said that Iran can operate up to 4,000 fast boats. I estimate at least 1,500 of which 300 to 350 are armed with missiles. Recapping, The already devastated Iranian Navy still operates around 30 patrol ships, 300 to 350 missile boats, and about 18 to 22 submariners and many submariners.
And that doesn't even factor in the unmanned vessels, those underwater drones that have been used before by the Iranians. And we saw, you know, in the Russian invasion of Ukraine, these unmanned vessels have been used a lot as well. By the way,
That doesn't even include what we're talking about, the ballistic missiles and the missile launchers and the FPV drones and the Shahi drones, which Iran has thousands, if not tens of thousands, and less than half of that inventory has been destroyed. Iran's president, Pazeshkian, posted the following message.
If the American government abandon its totalitarianism and respects the right of the Iranian nation, ways to reach an agreement will certainly be found. I commend the members of the negotiating team. Especially my dear brother, Mr. Dr. Ghalibaf. And may say, God gives you strength. That's Ghalibaf, the parliament leader. Iran's other social media accounts are posting things like this.
Naval blockade of Iran, Bab al-Mandab coming soon. Again, referring to shutting down the Strait of Bab al-Mandab, the way they now control the Strait of Hormuz, but using the Houthis who they consider part of their resistance front to do that. Foreign Minister of Iran, Araghchi, posted the following message. In intensive talks at the highest level in 47 years, Iran engaged with the U.S.

Chapter 4: What recent military actions have occurred in the Strait of Hormuz?
That'll be 10 o'clock tomorrow. Other nations are working so that Iran will not be able to sell oil. And that would be very effective. But what we want to do is we want to... And again, we don't need it. What we notice and what we see and what I think is maybe my idea, maybe not. I don't know. But there are many boats heading toward our country to fill up with oil and then go and take it.
So they're not going to go through the hormone strain. And ultimately, that will be corrected. But in the meantime, they're using us. We have... More oil because of Drill Baby Drill. We have more oil than Russia and Saudi Arabia put together. So if you look at Russia and Saudi Arabia, two big ones, we have much more oil than they have put together.
And what's happening is boats are coming over here, filling up. We don't have to go through the hormone.
Certainly, Donald Trump did not want to take any questions about Viktor Orban, Donald Trump and Putin's puppet in Hungary, losing the election big to Peter Magyar, the opposition leader, destroyed Viktor Orban in the election. And the opposition party, the pro-democracy, pro-European party went on to win. Great victory there for the new prime minister.
And here's what Donald Trump says as he went away. Play this clip.
Very serious examination. Thank you very much. All right, and Michael Hanlon.
And then last night, I'll do a whole other video on this, but Donald Trump kept on attacking the Pope and saying that the Pope is bad on crime and that the Pope is bad, yeah, the Pope is bad on crime and bad on foreign policy. He ranted and raved and said, you know, the Pope likes crime. And Donald Trump was asked, why are you attacking the Pope? Why are you attacking Pope Leo XIV?
Here's what Donald Trump said. Let's play it.
And they're going to go back filled up with oil. Why did you attack Pope Leo on Christosel? I don't think he's doing a very good job. He likes crime, I guess. He hit us. Think of it. He's worried about fear. What about the fear when the ministers and the priests and all of those great people that were arrested during COVID And in many cases, they're outside 10 feet apart and they were arrested.
