What captain is dumb enough to accept an escort
Any ship going through are seeking Iran's permission, not the US's protection


We will find out. I’d want both. How would you like to be the guy piloting the Iranian ‘Navy’ boat that looks like it could be a small craft on one of The Villages’ lakes? This may be an excuse for us to eliminate more Iranian ‘warships’ during this ‘ceasefire’.

It’s up to the insurance companies to decide if it’s too risky unless Trump is offering damage or replacement money from the US treasury.

We have overwhelming force at the scene and using minesweepers and warships to escort convoys makes sense.

If the Iranians attack then unleash FAE's on the shoreline and destroy everything.

Fuck 'em...they're iranians.

Personally, if I was on the Iranian side I would much prefer a smaller and more maneuverable boat that can also easily transition into looking like a civilian boat.

The U.S. Navy can wipe out the biggest Iran ship in minutes. So all being on a bigger boat would do is make it harder to escape. For insurgency type navies, small, fast, and concealable is almost always better.

What are "FAE's"??
From Google AI:
Quote:
Fae (or faerie/fay) are supernatural, magical beings from European folklore and mythology, representing a diverse range of spirits rather than just small winged creatures. Ranging from mischievous to malevolent, they are often associated with nature, liminal spaces (dusk, wild places), and a "hidden" world, sometimes divided into the benevolent Seelie Court and malicious Unseelie Court

I was ready to completely agree with your post but the reference to " FAE's" has me concerned.

Wow
So you are demanding more Iranian blood
Why so bloodthirsty??????? Is this what zionism does to you?????
How about some common sense and end the killing

Trump needs to withdraw and fire Hegseth
Trump needs to throw Netanyahu under the bus
He needs to admit that this war was a mistake
Ask Iran to open the Strait and pay reparations to the families of dead schoolchildren

The other alternative will be very unpleasant for Trump and the American people

A valid question deserves a valid answer, so here ya go...

A fuel-air explosive (FAE), or thermobaric weapon, is a two-stage munition that disperses a fuel cloud, which then ignites, using oxygen from the surrounding air to create a high-temperature, long-duration explosion. These weapons produce devastating shockwaves and vacuums, specializing in destroying bunkers and urban targets by filling spaces with fire and killing by extreme blast pressure.

You bet I want Iranian blood, if it’s from those attacking tankers or laying mines in the Straight. That’s a no brainer. You are against targeting those Iranian operations? Are you a traitor?

How much do you want us to pay for each dead school child? When does Gaza pay Israeli’s reparations for the October slaughter of civilians? I haven’t seen your post asking yet….

I'm against this illegal war
Iran never attacked us so we should not have attacked Iran
It's that simple
US should pay reparations for attacking school children
Iran has lost way way way more people in this illegal war then the US

I support peace by withdrawing. If you want to call me a traitor, go ahead. You actually want a forever war by continuing the attacks on Iran. WTF. Is this because Iran's strategy is to raise US gas prices to 5 bucks a gallon thereby killing the Republican party that is so desperate, they are Gerrymandering


As to Israel vs Palestinians. I believe the Palestinians have lost way more lives then Israel. Maybe Israel should withdraw all illegal settlements and pay reparations
