Donald Trump threatened to “take over” Iran if the Strait of Hormuz was not immediately re-opened, the president told Fox News.

His latest round of threats came in response to news Saturday that Iran was once again closing the key waterway, just days after signing an agreement to ensure that traffic could flow through.

Iran announced that it would close the Strait of Hormuz after Israeli forces continued an all-out assault into Lebanon aimed at dislodging Hezbollah militants.

    Cut off weapons and money for Israel.
    Send their ambassador back.
    Send AIPAC packing.
    Tell Bibi: “You want a war? You got it, but it’s YOUR war. Mazel tov, baby.”
    If Bibi gives you shit, then sanction the country.

    I know there’s not a chance in hell of DonDon doing any of that, but it’s what I’d do.

        Or that Mossad is the number one foreign agency that spies on the US government and has been for decades, that it holds kompromat material on much of the elite, and that this keeps Trump on a leash. There is no rational reason we kiss Bibi’s feet other than blackmail. Jeffrey Epstein was the most successful foreign agent in world history

          Trump probably won’t care about any dirt anyone has on him, and neither will about a third of the US population. However, point out his incompetence and you’ll be kimmeled by this extremely insecure little whiner before you can say “reflecting pool”.
