Trump at a rally says they may do “another operation” against Iran.
We may do another little Epic Fury We’ll take care of Cuba on our way back from Iran The market is certainly betting that Trump is going to do something in the short term, which is why oil has been so strongly bid in the past two days
Meanwhile, The IRGC Navy said in a statement Friday that two supertankers struck naval mines while attempting to cross what it called an unauthorized southern route through the Strait of Hormuz, causing explosions and fires. I’d take that with a grain of salt but we’re clearly in a paradigm that can’t last. Of course, Trump said recently there would be no attacks before the midterms but I don’t imagine his credibility is too high on that front.
What’s a bit of a giveaway is that a “little Epic Fury” is what’s been rumored, including some strikes on missiles sites, Pickaxe moutain, and infrastructure. There are even signs it’s been telegrahed. I ultimately think this could be an attempt at a face-saving move from Trump.
