"enabling"

BREAKING: FIFA President Gianni Infantino is sending 150 world cup footballers to secure the Strait of Hormuz.

Doesn’t surprise me at all that you don’t understand what it actually means pop
The marches are always attempting to influence what the government of this country does or doesn’t do iSIS/hamas/IRGC don’t care what democracies do or don’t do, but they do attempt to undermine democracy countries using useful idiots Like I said….always avoiding the fact they kill their own, and anything that assists them in doing that by objecting anyone who tackle them, is indeed enabling them. |
|
By:
So they don't care what influence demos have on democracies, cos they don't care what democracies do, but those people on demos definitely are enabling them.
Looks like you've waited till midday to tie yourself in knots. You're improving at least. |

By:
You look pathetic everyday by the nature of your stance being a tool, but you really are taking your disingenuous non-argument to a new low, even for you.
They don’t care about democracies because non of those terrorist orgs are one. They do care about destroying others though Just like people who place bombs don’t much care about the damage done to others But these orgs are even happy killing their own people who disagree with them |
|
By:
Do you include America and Israel in those orgs, or are those guys on your pillow cases?
|
|
By:
You have utterly no shame, to match your lack of knowledge.
A total waste of time, as all handwringers are with their suicidal empathy Neither America nor Israel kill their own people who happen to challenge them in their democracies. They do kill others in other areas who do kill their own. |

The lengths you will go to to avoid the fact the above is true and all you are is an unbelievable simpleton.
Go ahead and be vacuous and glib and waste other people’s time |

How exactly does putting naval vessels in the Straights of Hormuz help? Iran is hitting the tankers with missiles fired from a long way away so surlely they will just sink the naval vessels as well? Someone with more military knowledge than me might put me right. The only way to protect the tankers is to eliminate every rocket and drone launcher in Iran.

I think he just wants to put other countries' citizens at risk. Clearly, the thought of a US ship going down protecting - eg - a South Korean tanker would play incredibly badly back home, so his thought is that the countries depending on the oil should take the risk. However it ignores the obvious problem of who caused, who has sad the war's over several times now and who has even said the Straits are already open.
Clearly everyone else is smarter than that baby and will all have their own polling tell them that their citizens really don't want any involvement in this monstrosity. Better he learns it now and goes grovelling to Iran with promises of billions in compo to re-build to allow the Straits to re-open. |

the deflector-in-chief
made a huge mess and now blaming others for not clearing it up |

Maybe now American presidents will stop listening to Netanyahu

Trump: "I knew the Strait would be a weapon. I predicted it a long time ago. I predicted all of this stuff. I predicted Osama bin Laden would knock out the World Trade Center. I wrote it in a book."

Islamists tried to blow it up in 1993, so wasn't exactly Crystal ball material.

Straight of Hormuz is open................... to Chinese ships.

Trump tells Iran it has 48 hours to open Hormuz or US will ‘obliterate’ its power plants
23:44 GMT on Monday is the deadline. Missile diplomacy, just what the situation needs! |

The straight of Hormuz is still closed and Iran is plainly not afraid of Tacoman.
|
|
By:
Still closed.
and mined. |
|
By:
Trump paying Iran 3 billion to fix damage, then it'll be open.
Insurrectionists might have to wait for pay out. |
|
By:
At least we had the regular friday "we're dead close to a deal, and this time I really mean it" post. Like clockwork. No president has done so much for renewable energy.
|
|
By:
Still closed. Try again next week.
One problem yet to be solved is all the mines. America says Iran should clear them but didn't America also say the Iranian navy has been destroyed? I guess detail isn't The Donald's forte. |

By:
Maybe its time to throw bibi under the bus? Think it all would be resolved fairly quickly.
|
|
By:
Keep saying that the medium to long term effects of this is the ostracism of Israel. Even Trump has had enough and can't mask their evil and venality. And again, if I were the Iran negotiator, any final agreement would include the phrase "and if Israel attacks any of its neighbours, then we close the Straits again and start taking out ships."
|
|
By:
Beginning to look like closing the straits and thus impinging inflation upon, and destabilising Europe was the plan and the rest is/was all deflection.
how many times has trump said a deal to open the straits was imminent, 10? 20? |
|
By:
Trump is many things but Machiavellian, nah. All the chaos is fresh cooked daily.
1.01 DJT didn't know when Iran was or that the Strait of Hormuz even existed before he said yes to the psychopath Netanyahu. |
|
By:
As said above hard to take for granted media reports but the reining in regarding Lebanon is necessary as nothing can move forward. Long way to go to unravel a needless mess,Iran has to be listened to,they aren't blinking.

Ha,forget the last post. The one sided ceasefire didn't last 10 minutes.

Today is the 96th day the strait of Hormuz has been closed

Keeping oil price high is all you need to know

Will the straights be open during the world cup?
|

By:
As the don heads towards the mid terms throwing bibi harder and faster under the bus is looking his best option,he can in no way spin any 'victory'.The Iranian lads know this.
He was a bigger eejit for getting involved, no business in this at all.His almost pleading now is embarressing, the clock is being played now against him. |

By:
Netanyahu's corruption trial was postponed yet again yesterday due to incoming missiles.
Meanwhile........Trump says strait of Hormuz could be open in ‘two or three days’ if Iran peace deal is reached |

Day 104
Trump has announced that a deal is "soon" on 39 of the 104 days of his war. |
|
By:
I believe it is only 38 times that he has claimed a deal was about to be made but he lies so frequently, it's probably gone up since I started typing.
