🇺🇸🇮🇷 "WE'VE BASICALLY LOST THIS WAR" That's John Mearsheimer, the most influential realist IR scholar in America, on Iran and the Strait of Hormuz. His read: Iran will never surrender control of the strait. It's their only real leverage. Giving it up would be strategically insane.

JUST IN 🇮🇷🇺🇸: U.S. and Iranian Negotiations hit a BIG WALL, The Strait of Hormuz Iran stressed the Strait of Hormuz, won't return to its pre-war status, and a new transit protocol must be established. The U.S. wants to return to what it was before the war. The 40-day War on Iran gave them a nuke, the Strait of Hormuz, and they will not give it up! This was a problem created by Netanyahu lying and starting this war on Iran and the world is paying the price. Thanks again Bibi...

They have sovereign control 12 miles out from their coast." — Intelligence Committee Chair, Rick Crawford on the current situation in the Strait of Hormuz

🚨🇺🇸🇮🇷 The IRGC believes Iran will lose the war if it loses control of the Strait of Hormuz. That's why there's a sudden deployment of U.S. Marines to the Persian Gulf. If Washington can break Iran’s grip on Hormuz, or seize nearby islands and parts of the southern coastline, the world’s most important oil chokepoint reopens. And Iran loses its biggest strategic leverage in the war overnight. Source: Reuters

Mohammad Marandi:🇮🇷 The Strait of Hormuz is under Iran's control. No negotiations. No ceasefire. Trump likes to fabricate stories and hurl threats every few days. Iran never begs and never negotiates under pressure. Iran will never relinquish control over the Strait of Hormuz.

Rachel Maddow: “Donald Trump’s war in Iran is a disaster. The only outcome of it thus far that’s measurable is thousands of people dead, Iran in control of the Strait of Hormuz, we’re basically out of anti-aircraft and long-range munitions, and to no effect because we’ve still lost this war”

Scott Ritter: "Iran did not lose this war. The United States lost. We have no leverage - economic, military, or political - to compel Iran to do our bidding. Trump is an insane man suffering from malignant narcissistic personality disorder. The idea of US troops landing in Iran to take custody of their nuclear material? You'd have to be high on cocaine or insane. I'll go with insane." Ritter says Iran's "nuclear weapon" isn't a bomb - it's the Strait of Hormuz. They control it. They're not giving it up. And the world has already accepted that
