Iran closed the Strait of Hormuz for a second time on Saturday in response to Israeli airstrikes in Lebanon that caused at least 26 casualties. The action threatens the digitally signed memorandum of understanding that Iran and the United States had agreed upon to negotiate a truce.

    1. It is hereby announced that the Strait of Hormuz will be closed to vessel traffic; It is noted that this first step is a response to the enemy's breach of promise, and if the aggression continues, further steps will be planned and taken to force the enemy to comply with its obligations.

    1. History demonstrates that giving billions of dollars to theocratic lunatics who want to murder us is an exceptionally bad idea, and I think, unfortunately, the president is receiving some really bad advice on this deal.

    1. Unless you were homeschooled by a day drinker, no one's confident that Iran is going to do anything.

    1. Now, 13 Americans are dead, families have paid billions at the pump, sanctions will be lifted, and the bombing has stopped.
    2. Before the war, the strait was open, Iran was being crushed by sanctions, and 13 service members were still alive.
    3. Iran's nuclear ambitions were not curbed, and they have learned that threatening the Strait of Hormuz works and will undoubtedly leverage it in the future. Now, Iran gets to build brand-new infrastructure under this deal.

    Chris Murphy
    1. He took America to war — killing 13 soldiers, thousands of Iranian civilians and costing taxpayers $60 billion — to get rid of Iran's missile program. And now that he's lost the war, he pretends like it's no big deal.
