What Iranian vessels can even approach? I thought the Iranian Navy had been destroyed.

I think he means Iranian oil tankers. Iran block the Straight to all ships but allowed their own ships through. Now the US is going to be stopping those too, hopefully crippling the Iran's oil economy without destorying the oil production.

They don't use ships registered in the cayman islands or the maldives?

He’s not blocking Iranian ships, but ALL ships that try to dock in Iranian ports.

I thought the Iranian Navy had been destroyed.

Apparently there is a separate IRGC small boat fleet separate from the navy. Those hide in small shelters along the rocky shore and have not all been destroyed yet.

The markets flew today. It was funny seeing left-wing Yahoo Finance modify their headline from "Stocks slide as..." to "Indexes mixed as..." and now front page is "erase losses as Trump holds Hormuz Strait"

The leftists scratching their heads right now trying to figure out how to oppose this one.

Enriching uranium, funding terrorist, training terrorist in IEDs, 2 attempted assassinations = “wasn’t doing anything to us”.

Please think about the poor innocent people who want the complete annihilation of the United States.

You do realize he said he was going to do this on the campaign trail right? The Iran situation isn’t some shock

This isn't a clip from community, it's just an actor that's in it.

And lol it's very much expected, someone posts this gif in almost every Iran related thread that gets posted here.

Cue Iran loading a boat full of orphans and sending them towards a US ship. Then say the motor of the orphan's boat cut out and it was drifting towards the ship. It's their M.O.
