TRUMP REIMPOSES IRAN BLOCKADE — 20% TOLL ON THE STRAIT
Trump has pre-written the next escalation — standing orders and a thousand missiles.
Trump reimposed the naval blockade of Iran on Monday. He announced on Truth Social that the US Navy will stop Iranian ships and cargo in the Strait of Hormuz starting Tuesday at 4 PM ET, declared the United States the guardian of the strait, and said Washington will charge 20 percent on all cargo shipped through the waterway in exchange for protecting it.
The order followed a weekend of strikes in both directions. The Revolutionary Guard said it hit US military facilities in Bahrain and radar systems in Oman. Jordan’s military intercepted four missiles. Bahrain sounded air-raid sirens for the third time in three days; Kuwait reported engaging hostile aerial targets.
