Trump Launches MASSIVE STRIKE on IRAN!!!
Donald Trump has just launched a massive. military operation against Iran. Major. military strikes currently being. conducted by the United States while the. Ayatollah Khamenei's funeral processions. are still taking place. Those. processions have now moved to Iraq. We're seeing the United States strike. Qeshm, Bandar Abbas, Sirik, and other. areas near the Strait of Hormuz. The. United States is saying these strikes.
will be multiple times more powerful. than previous strikes by the United. States. The United States has also told. Axios and others, "This is about. punishment and we're not trying to be. proportional. We want to punish Iran.". And this is reportedly in response to. Iran striking multiple tankers that were. trying to use a United States route. through the Strait of Hormuz to do an. end-run around the IRGC's.
control over the Strait of Hormuz when. the memorandum of understanding put the. administration over the Strait of Hormuz. in the hands of Iran. Whether you like. that or not, that's what the memorandum. of understanding said and it did not. have any role for the United States to. play. Iran warned these tankers, "If you. use the route that US is telling you to. use, we will strike you." And Iran did. that multiple times, five ships being. hit by Iran. And this is how the Trump.
regime has responded. Also, the Trump. regime announced that it was pulling the. general license away from Iran to sell. its oil to an open market or to any. markets at all. This was obviously one. of the key provisions in the memorandum. of understanding and Trump regime. officials announced that they are. revoking the license to allow Iran to. sell oil. This is what a top official from the. Trump regime is saying. As Trump and his.
regime have repeatedly affirmed, the MOU. in effect with Iran is entirely. performance-based. Iran will only reap. benefits if they exhibit good behavior. Iran's actions in the straight were. wholly unacceptable to the United States. and will be met with consequences. Our. negotiators continue to work in good. faith towards a final deal. Well, that's. not how Iran feels about it. They are. done with any negotiations. Iran is. about to retaliate as well after these.
massive strikes against the Iranian. coastal cities by the United States. Iran views what the US was doing as a. clear violation of the memorandum of. understanding. And obviously, pulling. out of the provision which allows Iran. to sell its oil, a violation of the. memorandum of understanding. Let me show. you what's going on in Iran right now so. you can see for yourself. I showed you. some visuals there at the top of this. video, but let me show you right here. some of the strikes that were taking.
place. by the Trump regime. Here I will share. with you. some strikes, footage of US air strikes. hitting Iran's Bandar Abbas area. tonight. Play this clip.
Here's what it looked like in Qeshm. Island. You can see for yourself. Here's some footage capturing the. moments when US missiles bombed the. Shahid Hagani port in Bandar Abbas. Yep,
the memorandum of understanding is dead. Loud explosions in the Hormozgan. province as the US conducts strikes on. Iran.
You can see that the US targeted. speedboats. There also appears. to be vans that were targeted by the. United States. I'll show you some more. photos right here as well. Professor. Marandi, who's with the Iranian. negotiating team, and he's got a direct. line to the top civilian officials in. Iran, says the Trump regime has badly. miscalculated. Time will tell, he goes on to say, Iran. is fully prepared for all-out war. Trump.
will lose this confrontation, and if he. doubles down, that will bring down the. US economy. One of the immediate impacts. we're seeing as well, sources are. reporting complete power outages across. all cities of Kuwait. Trying to determine if this was a cause. and effect, if this was Iranian hackers, or if Iran was able to shut down the. power there. Also, in southern Lebanon, Israel under Netanyahu is using this as.
an opportunity to kill more people in. southern Lebanon. Here you have the. Israeli military under Netanyahu. going in into southern Lebanon, violating Article 1 of the MOU as well. Let's play this clip so you can see for. yourself. Self.
Let's take a look at the statement. coming out from CENTCOM right now. Here's the message from CENTCOM. "US. Central Command forces have begun. launching a series of powerful strikes. against Iran to impose heavy costs for. targeting and attacking commercial. shipping crewed by innocent civilians in. an international waterway. The US. strikes are in response to Iranian. attacks on three commercial vessels that. were transiting the Strait of Hormuz. Iran's demonstrated aggression was.
unwarranted, dangerous, and a clear. violation of the ceasefire. It actually. wasn't. The violation of the MOU. Again, whether you like the MOU or not, the MOU. says what the MOU says. And I think as. articulated well. by, you know, numerous people who have. studied the MOU. Um, and as we've talked. about here, I mean, look at what Reza. Nasri says. Article 5 of the MOU. entrusts the future administration of. the strait to dialogue among Iran, Oman, and the other Arab nations. It confers. no administering or supervisory role on.
the United States or on any other. regional or extra-regional power, and it. does not contemplate any arrangement. that would exclude Iran. The United. States relinquished any claim to. administer, supervise, or. internationalize the strait, as well as. any initiative designed to displace. Iran's role. Good faith implementation. of the provisions bars the creation of. alternative routes. Consistent with the. United States obligations under Article. 5 and its obligations under Article 9 to. preserve the status quo pending a final.
agreement. That's what the MOU says. You. can like the MOU, you cannot like the. MOU, but that's what the MOU says. Meanwhile, you have Garba body, deputy foreign minister over legal and. international affairs of Iran, says, "The United States action in revoking. the waiver for the exemption of. sanctions on Iran's oil sales. constitutes a blatant violation of. Article 10 and the subsequent military. operations of this country against Iran. also constitutes a serious violation of. Article 1 and 2 of the Islamabad MOU. In. the past 3 weeks, America has also.
repeatedly violated articles 1 and 2 of. the MOU due to the actions of the. Zionist regime in Lebanon and. threatening statements against Iran. Iran, while issuing a serious warning. regarding the consequences of America's. breach of the agreement, will take. decisive actions to safeguard its. national interests." The Iranian. Ministry of Foreign Affairs has. condemned the US strikes across southern. Iran saying that it is a violation of. the MOU. Despite Iran first targeting. three tankers as they transited the.
Strait of Hormuz. I mean, that's the. statement by this one account, rather. The open-source intelligence account, not despite the fact they were enforcing. the MOU. Iran holds the US government. responsible for their expected response, which will likely be a resumption of. Iranian strikes on US bases and. infrastructure in neighboring Gulf. countries as well. So, we're waiting to. see what that response looks like. right now. Oil prices, oil futures.
market going up as well. I expect those prices of the futures to. be $90 a barrel soon, $95 a barrel soon. US is basically at tank bottom on our. strategic reserves. This certainly is. not going to help with the fact that. these strategic reserves are being. depleted still at a very alarming rate. as the. futures markets of crude has been. manipulated obviously by our Treasury. Department. I think though, there's.
going to be a short squeeze on that. And. then as I noted, you have the massive. processions of the Iranian people first. in Tehran which we've been showing you. here then in Qom Q O M in a major mosque. there but it's a relatively small city. in Qom to see millions of people show up. was a sight to behold and then I'll. share this with you as well this is in. Iraq the Iraqi armed forces. giving a very formal greeting to. Ayatollah Khamenei's body. granddaughter's body.
and a massive procession's about to be. underway in Iraq. All of this is taking. place of course in the backdrop of the. NATO summit that's now. a disastrous NATO summit I mean I can't. think of a worse and more disastrous. NATO summit I covered it this morning as. well let me just play for you the. processions commencement in Iraq here. Let's play it. >> [music].
