  6. The country Iran has been droning since February, at Duqm and Salalah and off Muscat, absorbing it on our behalf. Kushner told Fox the president "really feels strongly about the blockade." Feels strongly. Thirteen ships, ten dollars a barrel, and the policy is a mood.

  11. Thirteen vessels crossed the Strait of Hormuz all weekend. Three of them Sunday. Brent crude at $88.85, up roughly ten dollars a barrel from early-August lows; WTI at $82.42. Twenty-four weeks of war, and Monday the sixty-day deadline for a deal came and went with nothing on the table.

    And the response is a threat to bomb Oman, the fuckin mediator. #Oman #Hormuz #Iran #OilPrices #WarPowers #uspol #Politics #News #Journalism #Resist #ForeignPolicy #Congress

  16. #Trump threatens to #bomb #US #ally #Oman as #Iran agreement expires

    Trump threatened today to attack Oman if it interferes with US efforts in the #StraitOfHormuz, as the conflict with Iran continues & a 2-month window for peace talks expires without a path to end the war.

    “If Oman gets in the way, we’ll bomb the shit out of them,” Trump said vulgarly in an interview with FauxNews.

  31. The strikes are separate from the #Pentagon’s campaign against alleged drug boats that began last fall. Those strikes have been fiercely criticized by #HumanRights groups & most Democratic lawmakers, who say they are #extrajudicial #murders. The admin has justified the strikes by equating “narco-terrorists” with militants assaulting the #US.
