The United States has imposed a naval blockade on Iran in a last attempt to break the will of the Islamic Republic before a possible invasion.
The blockade was announced by President Donald Trump, who said on April 12 that the U.S. Navy will immediately start blockading the Strait of Hormuz and will also intercept in international waters every vessel that paid a toll to Iran.
Iran has imposed its own blockade on the Strait of Hormuz — a chokepoint for about 20 percent of global oil and liquefied natural gas shipments — since the start of the American-Israel war more than a month ago. Despite the ceasefire, the Islamic Republic kept movement through the waterway restricted.
The move came amid a two-week ceasefire, and right after American-Iranian talks in Pakistan failed to produce an agreement.
The blockade began on April 13, with more than 10,000 American troops, a dozen warships, and dozens of aircraft are taking part, according to the U.S. Central Command.
The United Kingdom Maritime Trade Operations reported that it has been informed that “maritime access restrictions are being enforced affecting Iranian ports and coastal areas, including locations along the Arabian Gulf, Gulf of Oman, and the Arabian Sea east of the Strait of Hormuz.”
Responding, the Iranian military said that security in the Gulf and the Sea of Oman will be enforced on a reciprocal basis, hinting that ports in the region could be targeted.
Despite the escalation, Trump said on April 14 that Iran talks could resume in Pakistan over the next two days.
The next day, April 15, a report by The Washington Post revealed that over 10,000 more American troops will reach the Middle East before the end of the month.
There are 6,000 soldiers aboard the USS George H.W. Bush aircraft carrier and its strike group, which is sailing around Africa on its way to the region. Another 4,200 troops are in the aircraft-carrying USS Boxer amphibious assault ship and its group.
In an apparent response to this deployment, that Iranian military said that it could block marine traffic in the Persian Gulf, the Sea of Oman and the Red Sea if the U.S. blockade of its ports continues.
While Iran will likely agree to extend the ceasefire and hold another round of talks with the U.S., it clearly has no trust in the Trump administration. The blockade and the deployment of the additional American troops all indicate that the U.S. is taking advantage of the ceasefire to prepare an invasion of the Islamic Republic.

kill them as soon they are delivered in their multiheaded coffins. i hope russia and china are proud of their “multipolar world”. it does not work with “human rights” or “multipolar world”, and a cancer grown nazi entity. erase the white metastase of fake jews in palestine, as a good start.
μαθε τι ειναι “ναζισμος” και μην λες βλακειες !! “σιωνιστες” ειναι !!!
learn to write in english 😂 satan has many names, and rules by peoples inability to recognize he is one and the same. nazis and zionists ubermenschen thoughts are exactly the same thing.
learn to use deepl, and then you’ll understand greek. 😉
how do you think i could answer him ? 😂 yes, its possible to write “translate” in this thing, but it do not warn of the tower of babel at the same time.
obviously it is a multi polar world already. otherwise there would be no wars. religion is a traditional divider into disagreement. every body wants to rule the world but its the catholic church that states that it is the one and only true church in the universe and that its pope is the vicar of christ, the king of kings.
the protestant side of christianity disagrees, and bishop of rome is just that.
iran will finish them off, and the globe will be awash with oil when hegseth’s hair is degreased.
when hegseth and trump continue to drill baby drill it will. in fact if it weren’t for extortion disguised as business practices the world would be awash in totally reproductive oil which is produced constantly by actions of the tectonic plates. its renewable.
sure, but not with the same pace that is consumed by humans, the proof is logical: why us has became a neat exporter of oil? because fraking oil tech. but it’s really the final rope for industrial world.
fracking is natural gas and oil. it’s different. iran still has a lot of crude oil. where as fracking wells run dry quickly. i’m agreeing!
the us has plans to close and control all energy exports from the region. this is intentional. the issue is warfare has evolved in many ways from when these plans were created. iran has quietly been getting ready. remember saddams ua led proxy war against iran ?
the mafia war lords are losing position and the ability to project power. they are exposed . revolution is in the air. taxpayers are awakening.
the mafia are catholics headquartered in chicago, pope leos home town.
of course ! you only need to read on this page, about the satanics.
the fascistic sf censor all answers to the satanic, hospital murdering christians.
i really wish that was true. but no iq’s are going down. aluminum, plastics, neurotoxin’s in food and the air. jab jab jab. face masks don’t work. you cannot vaccinate against the common cold. aka corona types. the genetic structure of coronavirus-19 is patented. meaning, it was made by humans, in a lab. pilbright institute, bill and melinda foundation.
that s a lie straight out they are only stopping irans oil trading.
then blow “us” from the surface. you are really, really stupid, and wants to make the whole world to a concentration camp. christianity in a nutshell.
my anuz broken in many americunt gay bars—now dripping with hebrew jizz👍🏿
the “last attempt” will be a mushroom cloud and crater where tehran used to be…heheheh
and the next one will be where tel aviv once stood. hehehehehe
samson option is always on the israeli table. they call it: b’rerat shimshon ברירת שמשון
and retaliation is always on the other side of the table.
can’t come soon enough for the inbreds.
the chinese, russians, indians, pakistans are coming to the rescue of the persìans. and ìf ìf thàt is not enough. then the spanish tercios will finally settle the score.
we got iran’s enriched uranus and they also have to swallow hook line and sinker and like it too. hehehe
i doubt this is just about iran. it is and will be about russia, too. they took out venezuela and try to take out cuba, both allies of russia. russia has always been enemy number one of usa.
you’re naive uneducated uninformed and deceived ametica and russua secretly have worked together for years it was anerica and russua together that defeated the nazis after hitler was tricked, like bonaparte, into attacking russia. he was double tricked first by england then by his advisors he had a study in which were two guest chairs that he consulted with although no one ever saw the guests arrive or depart allegedly.
americunts had no importance in ww2
a very evil importance, by finance adolf hitler rothschild, and then occupie europe. the vermin destroy, wherever they are.
right, and communist china wasn’t/isn’t important during the ongoing 50+ year korean war.
as long as they not tell the truth about trick movies in 9/11, and mass murder in the hospitals, and do not find another use of “nuclear weapon”, than free mass murder, this is true. it was “us” that financed the nazis first, then occupied europe. two evil do not make one good.
yes nazi went to canada, australia, the u.s.a. and other places. the special operations have names like “operation paperclip.” plenty of nazi also went into the soviet union. who captured berlin?
do not forget argentina, which eventually wants to save the nazis again, from “israel” this time. it was more of the nazis thoughts, that went into ussr. right are most “nukes”, but they are only possible to use for free mass murder. a idea by the mentally ill nazi einstein.
yeah, i’ve seen the pictures of hitler in south america, u-977 dropped off a bunch of nazi in argentina before surrendering.
‘surrendering’ ?
i thought it was scuttled. 🤔
if “history of the u-boot” authored by kittel & graf in 2015 pg.93 is historical fact. then u-977 was given to the us by argentine authorities. it was transferred to the usa to study technology and then sunk while being used in naval test firing 1946.
“we’ll know our disinformation program is complete when everything everyone believes is false.” to paraphrase william casey fmr. c.i.a. director.
“it was more of the nazis thoughts.” no. no, ussr captured berlin. took many nazi back to the soviet union to be scientists and develop weapons/technology. they were physical people not thoughts. einstein, was in the u.s.a. in 1933 when the nazi came to power. he was a jew. smart enough to stay and apply for citizenship in the u.s.a. go back to middle earth please.
“always” ? the great war? (ww1) allied with the soviet union during ww2. false dichotomies exist.
iran could of course do as it could have done in february, issue an ultimatum demanding the cessation of any reinforcements [plus withdrawal of those arriving since the start of the ceasefire] within 24 hours , or else (but iran does not need to say what). striking first will always hamper the enemy’s plan. if then obedience, then ceasing fire.
irans far to busy executing publicly any who dare to express their freedom of speech . 34 this month i’ve seen reported and of course femake virgins go to heaven so they have to be gang raped before execution according to reports on fox.. right kow on you tube.
typical self uglified immoral moron americunt
have you see a trick movie about that, or only the one in 9/11, idiot ? fox 😂 do you look at adolf hitler rothschild’s speeches every day also ?
insurrectionists need to be removed.
13 000 pakistani soldiers, and a dozen jets, already in saudi arabia. george h.w. bush carrier group is around the cape of hope. will be in the indian ocean in 2 days. saudi arabia and pakistan have military defense pacts. the blue team is anticipating the talks to fail. nato supports the tripoli gov. in libya. while turkey supports the bengahzi based gov. turkey has one of the largest land armys. they’re not on the best of terms with iran either. i wonder what will happen? zzzzz…
prince mbs has already taken israels side. the monarchs like monarchy. the popes king of kings king chatles totally ignored easter but had moslems break eid at his windsor home.
pope benedict said about the vatican that “they in there hate jesus and christians”
hitler caused death to reign upon the german and european lutherans germany was lutheran under the kaiser and still about 95% under hitler.
bottom line that ordinary people do not understand is that christianity means individual sovereignity. monarchists don’t like that. they want to hold exclusive sovereignity over everyone else. in the law as a christian you are endowed with “the flesh is living and the blood flows in my veins ” of our father god. that is we are immortal and divine all men are created equal. by birth.
dumb americunt inferior species–equal to monkey
oh, i thought it meant mass murder, and burning of women alive ? what the christians have done for 1000 years. are you a idiot ? you should ask native people around the world, if they have be treated as equals by the christians. or ask why the christians send trick movie in 9/11.
what is a “roman candle” ?
a instruction to christians ?
no, you see i dismantled your comment by stating facts. roman candles are christian martyrdom, dar al-islam is muslims v.s. the world. (convert or die) superiority complex.
you are a idiot. which obviously do not know that the christians did the same towards women. are you so stupid that you dont understand sarcasm ?
maybe, no. i can’t read your sarcasm. your comments are full of hate.
i made a sarcastic comment about china and the korean war. which was not kind. enjoy the good things you have.
what is “dar al-islam” ?
that “americans” are on the wrong continent ? only go to hell, nazis. you have not understand this, vermin, die, and take all your “religions” with you.
what? nazi is plural. i don’t understand, you’re right about that.
and yeah, full of hate. “the naïve inherit foolishness, but the sensible are crowned with knowledge.” it’s good to know other religious beliefs. that way you can discern what other people mean/their true intent.
also, 9/11… dancing israelis photo, is not a coincidence. modern talmudic judaism is extremely anti-christian. yes, it was a false flag. yes bin ladin was a boogyman. (he could dance!) he died in a cave, needing dialysis in the ~2000’s.
we have hear it all, “israelis” control norad…340 million nazi christian vermin point finger against 9 million fake jews; they rules us, buuhuu 😂 do you try to convince me about it was a false flag, when i had a whole web site about that ? and about the lizzards in fake tv watch of faked killing of the already dead bin ladin. christians are exactly the same as nazis, and suffer from the same ubermenschen complex.
actually n.o.r.a.d. is in complete disrepair and other technology is being used. over the horizon radar. n.o.r.a.d. is old. you can see the dead stations on maps.
we are mortal, and “my righteousness is as filthy rags.”
according to latest info, the christians are not mortal, and thats why they wear that filthy rags.
no. christian’s are mortal. and you don’t know what that quote means at all.
i’m sorry, it means. “i think i’m righteous, but compared to god, what i think is righteous, is actually worthless garbage.”
only christians can become martyrs, others shall be slaughtered at will. its the christians practice, under 1000 year. now you deny that their cadavers will rise from the grave, do not piss off dracula 😂 what you call god, are the insanity christians hide behind, seems that adolf trump have erase his godlike tweet 😂 i know that christians are filthy rags, that why they laborate with their “god”, and egyptian walking cadavers. your “god” are you trained as any animal in sunday school.
i’m sorry you feel that way. you’ve not been sarcastic. but i knew that. “be wise as serpents and innocent as doves” i’m not wise at all. ex. i shouldn’t respond, but i am.
false dumb americunt–you idiots should be exterminated–worse than termites
literally. a kind of vermin.
saxe-coburg and gotha. home in windsor. pope leo visited algerian mosque. “it is a divine and sacred space, where many people come to pray and to seek the presence of the most high in their lives.” “muslims and christians have different beliefs but can live together in peace.” excuse me robert!? (leo xiv) dar al-islam. pope benedict was the last “pope.” he was pope untill 2023 when he died. francis was never pope. i’m not roman catholic.
americunts are inferior moron species–you r proof
idiots. blow up the atlantic cables, and transfer the “american” nazis in asia and europe to their concentration camp, the island of death and destruction, and then exterminate them. it will stop trick movies from them.
it’s probably best you did take a nap 😴
zzz’s come with eee’s! when you have a purple mattress.
americunts have their anuz filled w hebrew jizz after they broken by taliban for 20 yrs
very strange, as more downvoted, as more true 😂 it must be a “american” site. if its not a mentally ill cadaver, the working slave cast do not vote for it. promise them gold and green forest, and no more wars, and they instantly vote for the concurse cadaver 😂
this is obviously a satanic site, that only worship one true murderer in the whole universe 😂 the chatolic murderer 😂
last attempt by anon sawyer & bob to pump jizz in my anuz made me a lgbt military expert
what did they do to the chatolics in sunday school ? obviously, they lobotomized them. they cant interpret a multipolar world in any other way than ” lets kill all that are different !” litteratur as “the da vinci code” are so important, because it shows in the form of a roman, how they have be lobotomized. its not by chance, the saintly murderer are a albino 😂
the world has always be multipolar. christianity cant accept that, they must murder all resistance, often in the most sneaky way, as russias “root causes”, the kidnapped. now with another insane crusader ruling the nazis. adolf as jesus 😂 perfect, look at the root cause 😂
dardanelles mk2, and look how the first one ended up with 500,000 troops landed.
some israeli articles claim that trump is very close to a agreement with iran in having them hand over all enriched uranium and opening the straights. that would be a massive c uk move and the end of iran if they did that because the jews will just continue the regime change ag en da. iran better make nukes or get them from pakistan as the rabbis preach they will. its the only way to keep the jews away and the only stabilizing factor in the region.
the jews only respect mad. if its the last thing israel ever dous thats what keeps them from stealing land and making more genoc ides and wars.
if no one has that kind of responsive power projection they all end up like saddam gadaffi maduro or as sad.
m.a.d. mutually assured destruction? yes. samson option.
“if i can’t have it, no-one will!” – pride/greed/hate. (downfall of man)
any idea how much “israel” must be destroyed, before those wonder weapon pop out of it ? 😂 downfall of man have happen a long time ago, according to stanley kubrick approximately 2 million years ago.
ok thanks. “aragorn saw there sat upon his steed of pitch hide was the emissary of mordor, he who called himself the mouth of sauron. in harsh, guttural screams he cursed the orcs in the black speech and spurred his horse forward, and striding behind him came a great hill-troll of gorgoroth.”
works excellent for russia, which kills slavs, and avoid mention the root cause.
its better to erase “us” from the surface. what does “nukes” help russia ? they are only good for to establish free mass murder, until they are used for something else, as stalingrad. the fake jews have very little to do with it, as soon “us” are driven away from the med, it will be the same as korea, and vietnam. strange that you dont understand that those fake jews are nothing without the big genociders in north america.
it is not the last one !, it is the next. israel will always continue to try to destroy and to control irán. they say that is its god’s command.
