The US military has conducted strikes on Iranian targets after Donald Trump accused Iran of a “foolish violation” of its truce following an attack on a cargo ship in the Strait of Hormuz.
No casualties were reported when the ship was struck by a one-way attack drone on Thursday, an incident which prompted a planned evacuation of more than 11,000 sailors stuck in the region.
In response, US Central Command said on Friday it had struck missile and drone storage facilities and coastal radar positions. There has been no comment yet from Iran.
Tinfoil hat here: Israel, respectively BN, doesn’t want this war to end.
Anything to keep from being figuratively and literally fucked in prison.
Israel’s the one party that wasn’t a variable on this. Iran decided to hit a cargo ship, and the US decided to hit Iran back.
Well…okay, maybe the cargo ship was Israeli, but I would assume not.

The US and Iran signed a peace treaty agreeing to end attacks, and to end attacks in Lebanon. Within a couple days Israel attacked Lebanon again. You say Israel wasn’t a variable in this, but they’re literally the only reason there isn’t peace right now.
I don’t think the drone had its passport with it, and Israel is for sure able to procure a Shahed.
