Trump Announces Historic Iran Peace Deal as Strait of Hormuz Reopens

By Ben Whedon | Just the News The terms of the agreement were unavailable as of Sunday night, but a top Pakistan mediator said both sides have declared the immediate and permanent termination of all military operations. President Donald Trump has unveiled a deal to end 47 years of hostilities with Iran, bringing months of U.S.military operations to an end and opening the Strait of Hormuz in a one-two punch certain to ease oil prices ahead of the midterm elections. "Let the oil flow!” Trump declared Sunday on social media after completing the deal on his 80th birthday and the day the U.S. began its 250th anniversary celebration with an historic UFC Freedom 250 mixed martial arts fight on the White House South Lawn. A signed ceremony was set for Friday in Switzerland. ...

Trump Warns Iran As US Escorts Ships Through The Strait of Hormuz

By Morgan Phillips | Fox News The operation involves guided-missile destroyers, more than 100 aircraft and roughly 15,000 service members. The U.S. operation to reopen the Strait of Hormuz is unfolding under fire, with American forces intercepting Iranian missiles and drones and destroying attack boats targeting commercial shipping as they begin moving vessels through one of the world’s most critical waterways. U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) said two U.S.-flagged merchant vessels have successfully transited the strait under the effort, dubbed "Project Freedom," even as Iranian officials rejected the claim as "baseless" and warned that any foreign military presence would be attacked. President Donald Trump warned that any Iranian strike on U.S. vessel...

Iran Threatens Escalation Ahead of Ceasefire Expiration

By Robert McGreevy | Fox News Iran ceasefire expires Tuesday as Vance heads to Pakistan for a second round of negotiations. Iranian Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf threatened to "reveal new cards on the battlefield" in a Monday evening social media post just days before the agreed ceasefire between the United States and Iran is set to expire. "Trump, by imposing a siege and violating the ceasefire, seeks to turn this negotiating table — in his own imagination — into a table of surrender or to justify renewed warmongering," Ghalibaf wrote on X. "We do not accept negotiations under the shadow of threats, and in the past two weeks, we have prepared to reveal new cards on the battlefield," he concluded. Ghalibaf led the Iranian delegat...

U.S. Blockade Could Break Iran If Washington Holds The Line

By Helen Raleigh | Commentary, The Federalist The U.S. naval blockade of the Strait of Hormuz is a significant escalation that carries considerable risks and rewards. This week, the United States imposed a naval blockade on Iranian ports in the Strait of Hormuz. The action marks a significant escalation following the collapse of peace negotiations between the U.S. and Iran. While the move carries considerable risks, it also offers substantial potential rewards. The Strait of Hormuz, with Iran controlling its northern shore, has long been one of the world’s most critical energy arteries. Before the war, roughly 20 percent of global seaborne oil trade and significant volumes of liquefied natural gas (LNG) passed through its narrow waters. Sin...

3,000 Troops from 82nd Airborne May Head to Middle East

By Joshua Klein | Breitbart The Pentagon is expected to order roughly 3,000 troops from the Army’s elite 82nd Airborne Division to the Middle East “in the coming hours,” according to a Wall Street Journal report outlining an imminent deployment of a rapid-response brigade combat team to support operations against Iran. The Wall Street Journal reported Tuesday, citing two U.S. officials, that a written deployment order is expected shortly for the unit, along with the division’s headquarters element responsible for planning and coordination. The move would mark a significant expansion of U.S. force posture in the region, positioning a high-readiness ground force capable of executing a range of missions if directed. The 82nd Airborne serves as the ...

Strategic Gains Mount for the United States and Israel As Iran Missile And Proxy Networks Falter

By Muhanad Seloom | Al Jazeera Every aspect of Iran’s ability to project regional power is being successfully degraded. Two weeks into Operation Epic Fury, the dominant narrative has settled into a comfortable groove: The United States and Israel stumbled into a war without a plan. Iran is retaliating across the region. Oil prices are surging, and the world is facing another Middle Eastern quagmire. US senators have called it a blunder. Cable news has tallied the crises. Commentators have warned of a long war. The chorus is loud and, in some respects, understandable. War is ugly, and this one has imposed real costs on millions of people across the Middle East, including the city I live in. But this narrative is wrong. Not because the costs are imaginary, but b...

Trump Administration Taps Global Oil Reserves And U.S. Production To Steady Markets

By: Anthony Iafrate | The Daily Signal THE DAILY CALLER NEWS FOUNDATION—Secretary of Energy Chris Wright stated during a “Meet The Press” interview Sunday that the U.S. is taking several actions—including increasing oil production in deep blue California—to mitigate rising fuel costs due to the conflict in Iran. After the military strikes of Operation Epic Fury began Feb. 28, Iran sought to block U.S. transport vessels from passing though the Strait of Hormuz, the waterway separating the country from the Gulf States through which an estimated 20% of the world’s oil demand usually flows. The reduction in shipping volume has led to the surge of oil prices in the following weeks. “We have done many, many act...
