like, could this be done? sure. it will just require near constant bombardment basically forever. it does not take much to deny access to the strait

FDD is currently experiencing the definition of dog catching the car and not knowing what to do with it— it begged and begged and begged and begged and begged for a war with Iran, in their case explicitly for Israel, and now some of its most senior fellows are freaking out at the repercussions.

Iran was on the path to becoming a mostly liberal democracy after Khamenei died of natural causes and Republicans wouldn't have it.

Go back in time and tell someone in 1975 that a regional war would happen again and Egypt would be the most irrelevant country on the planet

israel is targeting (potentially with the US?) civilian infrastructure. they’re assassinating opposition leaders and ex government officials. people who are objectively not military targets. the goal of all this appears to be to collapse the iranian state

"A U.S. diplomat who was in the embassy when McGurk arrived found his steady advance astonishing. “Brett only meets people who speak English. … There are like four people in the government who speak English. And somehow he’s now the person who should decide the fate of Iraq? How did this happen?”"
