@thejackhopkins Escalation won’t reopen the Strait—It’ll close it permanently in blood. Iran has terrain, proxies & patience. The U.S. has depleted interceptor stocks & no exit strategy. This isn’t a corner Trump stumbled into. He sprinted toward it. #Hormuz #StrategicFailure
WHY SENDING MARINES TO SECURE THE STRAIT OF HORMUZ (SOH) WOULD BE DISASTROUS FOR THE U.S.🧵 The core problem is asymmetric persistence. The U.S. must hold every island, every day, against an adversary that only has to succeed occasionally. Iran doesn’t need to sink every tanker—B

Strategic failure or not, 17 days of war have only strengthened Iran. They now control the vital Straits of Hormuz—something we've fought for 50 years to prevent. When goals are misaligned, consequences can be catastrophic. #MiddleEast #Geopolitics #StrategicFailure #reaction

Trump is now cornered in the Strait of Hormuz. He is forced to choose between massive military escalation and embarrassing concessions in order to restore global shipping. Stumbling into this severe bottleneck is a textbook example of strategic failure
