Chapter 1: What triggered the US Navy's attack on an Iranian ship?
Donald Trump is panicking as Iran is threatening a massive retaliation against Donald Trump and his regime and American interests in the Middle East after Donald Trump directed the United States Navy to attack a Iranian ship that was in the Persian Gulf that the Trump regime claimed was trying to evade the United States blockade of the Persian Gulf.
CENTCOM released video of the United States Navy attacking this Iranian ship, boarding and interdicting this Iranian ship.
Iranian leaders responded that this was an act of piracy, that they intend to massively retaliate against United States interest in the region, and that while Donald Trump says that he's going to be sending negotiators to try to reach a deal with Iran in Pakistan on Tuesday, tomorrow,
The Iranians are saying, why would we want to meet with you in Islamabad in Pakistan if you continue to escalate and have this blockade and that you're not agreeing to the 10-point negotiating framework that was a precondition to the ceasefire? And all you do is try to use the negotiation to achieve things you couldn't achieve in war.
your threats against us aren't working so why would we even want to negotiate and we intend to retaliate against the united states interest so folks there's a massive escalation that's why we saw oil prices surge yet again very close to a hundred dollars per barrel as of this recording i wouldn't be shocked if it goes up
more than that this morning in addition we saw the markets tanking on the news that yes donald trump guess what manipulated the markets on friday claimed he had all of these deals with iran which was a total fabrication iran denied it donald trump escalated things this weekend and iran said okay well then negotiations are off i guess we're not going to meet you in islamabad if this is how you are behaving i'll share with you donald trump's post i'll share with you iran's response
And this is where we are. We need to understand objectively what the facts are and not what the media stenographers spreading Trump propaganda are saying in the United States. So you had Donald Trump earlier in the morning making this post. He writes, Iran decided to fire bullets yesterday in the Strait of Hormuz, a total violation of the ceasefire agreement.
Then Trump says, no more Mr. Nice Guy. And then Trump says that we're offering a fair and reasonable deal with Iran. I hope they take it. If they don't, the United States is going to knock out every single power plant, every single bridge in Iran if they don't take the deal. By the way, then Iran's social media accounts responded. As Donald Trump's like, no more Mr. Nice Guy, Iran responded.
They go... They call him by many names, idiot, madman, psychopath, but not a nice guy. Then you had Donald Trump post on social media about the interdiction of this Iranian ship.

Chapter 2: How did Iran respond to the US Navy's actions?
Here's what Donald Trump posted yesterday afternoon. Today, an Iranian flag cargo ship named Tuska, T-O-U-S-K-A, nearly 900 foot long and weighing almost as much as an aircraft carrier. tried to get past our naval blockade, and it did not go well for them. The US Navy guided missile destroyer USS Spruance intercepted the Tuska in the Gulf of Oman and gave them fair warning to stop.
The Iranian crew refused to listen, so our Navy ship stopped them right in their tracks by blowing a hole in the engine room. Right now, US Marines have custody of the vessel. The Tuska is under Treasury sanctions because of their prior history of illegal activity. We have full custody of the ship. and are seeing what's on board. Donald J. Trump and CENTCOM released video.
I'll show you some of the B-roll right here of the interdiction purportedly. And then the Navy boarding the ship at night. In response to that, Iran has responded. The Iran's ambassador in Pakistan wrote, You cannot keep violating the international law. Double down on your blockade. Threaten Iran with further war crimes. Insist on unreasonable demands.
Pace out with rhetorics and pretend to be pursuing diplomacy. As long as the naval blockade remains, fault lines remain. The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps Aerospace Chief writes, Iran's missile drone launch pads replenish faster than before the war.
Chapter 3: What are the implications of escalating tensions in the Persian Gulf?
Iran's President Pazeshkin says that Trump lacks the justification to deprive Iran of its nuclear rights. And top Iranian lawmakers are saying, Iran stands firm on its preconditions for talks with the United States, a ceasefire in Lebanon, a release of frozen assets, control of the Strait of Hormuz, and if those aren't agreed to, and long-term security guarantees aren't agreed to,
There's no need to even have negotiations in the first place. Iran did indeed confirm that interdiction of their ship, the Tuza, and they said they will retaliate soon and there will be serious retaliation. Iran's state-run Tasnim news agency
um says attack on an iranian container ship by american terrorists confirmed the self-proclaimed greatest military force in the world has now become the leader of pirates american terrorist military forces attacked an iranian container ship named tuska which was traveling from china to iran in the gulf of oman a few hours ago after the american attacked the ship
Iranian forces also attack some American military ships with drones. Trump claimed a few hours ago that the American terrorists seized the ship. Iran had previously announced that it would retaliate against American actions. And I'll show you what Iran is releasing as well. I mean, they're kind of taunting the United States right now.
They have this video that they're releasing regarding the Strait of Hormuz, and it's like a little baby as Donald Trump in the Strait of Hormuz. Here, play this clip right here.
No! No!
They released this new Lego video as well yesterday.
Here, play this clip right here.
The Iranian embassy in Indonesia released a video that they said Petto wants the files. I'll just show you.

Chapter 4: What did Donald Trump say about the blockade and negotiations with Iran?
We don't need to play a long clip of this. You could just show a short clip of it. Play this clip. The Iranian embassy in South Africa posted this photo of Donald Trump as Albert Einstein. Block plus block equals unblock. Find the mistakes, and they're obviously mocking him right there. The Iranian social media account in Ghana said the eighth.
Tuska's only crime, referring to that container ship, was being the eighth. By ship nine, even Fox was going to ask Trump questions. The blockade has a leak, seven out of eight technically. So Trump sent the USS Spruance, the most overqualified piece of ship afloat. Tuska is now the most expensive cargo the Pentagon has ever touched. They just don't know the price yet. They will.
And as I mentioned before, Iranians, aerospace commander Mosavi writes, during the pause and hostilities, our speed in upgrading and refilling missile and drone launch platforms is even higher than before the war. We have information that the enemy is unable to create such conditions for itself. and is forced to bring munitions drip by drip to the other side of the world.
You then have Iran's parliament leader, MB Ghalabaf. He made a post, and he also put some code in there as well to talk about the market manipulation that's been going on by the Trump regime. He writes, vibe trading digital oil is like vibe hedging.
Chapter 5: How is the market reacting to the conflict between the US and Iran?
in treasuries during Hormuz risk-off both share one house of cards that works on paper difference oil at least has dated Brent treasuries vibes all the way down and then it includes right here uh the kind of the the Bloomberg terminal code for dated Brent
Basically showing market manipulation that there were traders who knew about the announcements that Donald Trump would make to manipulate the market to try to lower the price of Brent crude futures or increase it depending on how Trump's wanted to manipulate the market with his right wing oligarchs. This was a statement from Iran's news agency.
Iran is prepared for the possibility of resuming the war. Bab al-Mandab, Aramco, Yanbu, and Fujairah enter the conflict zone. In other words, the Strait of Bab al-Mandab, the one in the Red Sea, which would shut down traffic in the Red Sea and bring the prices of oil up to $200 per barrel. That's what Iran is threatening now.
Monitoring American movements in recent days indicate several repositionings, some of which are as follows. One, deployments of some American warships. Two, establishment of an unprecedented air bridge for transferring equipment. Three, participation of several heavy C-5 and C-17 aircraft for transporting weapons. Four, island seizure exercise in Bahrain and rapid coastal seizure.
Five, extensive flight of American reconnaissance drones over the island. Six, relocation of some U.S. defense systems in the region and, accordingly, Iran is considering two scenarios simultaneously and has taken the necessary measures for both of them. The first scenario is utilizing these preparations to create psychological pressure in order to extract concessions in the negotiating room.
America on one hand issues threats and on the other keeps intensifying negotiation signals in the media. Iran has presented its proposals based on realism and in accordance with the fundamental rights of the Iranian nation and it is America that must abandon its excessive demands.

Chapter 6: What are Iran's preconditions for negotiations with the US?
Therefore, just as such pressures and threats in the past have had no effect on the negotiating table, this time, too, they will have no effect. The second scenario involves storytelling about negotiations in order to prepare the ground for a surprise and rapid military attack on some of Iran's islands. American terrorists have extensive experience in the matter of deception through negotiation,
And over the course of one year, they attacked Iran twice during negotiations while constantly speaking of the talks progress. Iran is fully prepared this time as well and considers the scenario of war more likely than continued negotiations. Therefore, Iran is prepared to with the reconstruction and preparation
it has undertaken over the past two weeks cement the unforgettable hellish hours right from the outset of renewed conflict with America and Israel. Additionally, an analysis of Iran's position shows that if the war begins and infrastructure is targeted, once again, Iran will completely abandon the restraints it exercised in the first round of the war regarding Bab al-Mandab, Aramco, Yanbu,
and Fajara and Iranian sources are denying that they intend to attend the next round of negotiations because they say, what's the point of negotiating with the United States if they're using it in bad faith? Also, Israel is preparing for a renewed phase of intense fighting across Gaza at the start of next month. Israel's news media is reporting this follows. They claim Hamas's refusal to disarm.
And there is an Israel says it plans escalation. Also, Israel has continued to hit targets in Lebanon as recently as yesterday, even though there is a purported ceasefire that's supposed to be taking place there. Donald Trump's approval at all time lows. The latest NBC approval polling has Donald Trump at 37%, 63% disapprove his
support of iran is net negative 34 at this point i mean absolutely absolutely uh horrific
that's where things stand with the trump regime um we'll keep you posted every step of the way of course here on the midas touch network um and in terms of you know donald trump panicking people like oh is he panicking is he panicking the wall street journal articles talked about donald trump our military leaders are saying trump's like pacing around the white house like literally panicking um just walking back and forth and yelling and screaming like a lunatic
And, you know, one of the things that generals are saying, it's like, look, if you want to go to war, you're going to have to send troops to war, Donald. Like, lots of people are going to die.

Chapter 7: What military preparations is Iran making in response to the US?
If you want to take Karg Island by force, our military can do it. You're just going to have to accept massive casualties. And Trump then resists sending American soldiers to take Karg Island. For example, the launch point for 90% of oil exports, as Wall Street Journal reports, because even though he's told the mission would succeed, Donald Trump is scared of the high American casualties.
So then the general is like, okay, well then make a deal. I don't want to make a deal. So our generals are like, okay, so you either do the invasion or make a deal. And you make a deal, you're going to have to give Iran a lot of victories at this point because they're They achieved more on the battlefield than you did in terms of control over the Strait of Bermuda.
So what are you going to pick, Donald? You can't just have everything. You're sending social media posts and making contradictory, deranged statements that one day is this, one day is that. That's not working. That's not a real strategy. What are you going to do? And Trump's pacing back and forth, panicking. That's what the Wall Street Journal article says. That's what we're hearing from
Numerous other sources. Let me know what you think.
