For those keeping track at home.

The Iranians have now blockaded the Strait of Hormuz in response to the US blockading it because the Iranians had blockaded it, in response to the US attacking Iran to ensure that the Strait which was fully open at the time wasn't blockaded
And this was after they attacked Iran to destroy the facilities they obliterated last year when they attacked Iran.

Re: Israel, Hamas, Hezbollah, Iran … War

If somebody had the nerve (and money) to do it, this could be one of the funniest war films ever made.

There must be shed loads of jokes, wisecracks, quips, one liners and ego busting situations to make a great blockbuster

The usa opens the straight of hormuz with billions of dollars worth of military hardware and the Iranians close it with a speed boat and a gun

Ceasefire ends tomorrow

We're loaded up': Trump warns US military 'raring to go' after restocking during ceasefire

More to bring you from Donald Trump now, who has told CNBC the US military has used the ceasefire with Iran to restock on equipment.

"We're loaded up," he said.

Asked about the possibility of extending the ceasefire, Trump said: "I don't want to do that. We don't have that much time... I expect to be bombing because I think that's a ​better attitude to go in with."

He added: "We have so much ammo, so much of everything... we've used this to restock and they probably have done a little bit of restocking.

"We're ready to go. The military is raring to go."

Lol.

He does come across as a bit of a failed boxing promoter! If he ever gave that job a go, I'm sure he'd be beaten up after the first fight for talking up a no-hoper! The bookies would probably love him though!

You know it’s almost as if he doesn’t actually have any coherant plan and is just making it up as he goes along.

Surely not?
