Re: Is Israel finished?
Obama gave them a lot of money to try and be friends but how was he repaid?
Iran organised the Hamas attack on Oct. 7th 2023
and kept attacking Israel from Lebanon and Yemen.
Iran used the money for more terrorism.
So when you help Iran they stab you in the back.
Google AI:
The Obama administration transferred $1.7 billion in cash to Iran in 2016.
This payment was not a gift, but a settlement of a decades-old, pre-1979 Iranian claim over a failed arms deal. Here is the breakdown:
$400 million: The principal amount of the original funds deposited by Iran for military equipment that was never delivered.
$1.3 billion: Interest payments on that amount, as agreed upon through a settlement at the Hague Tribunal.
Key Context:
Cash Delivery: The $400 million was flown into Iran in cash (using foreign currencies) because U.S. sanctions prohibited banking transactions with Iran.
Hostage Controversy: Critics argued the cash payment was a "ransom" because it occurred simultaneously with the release of four American hostages in January 2016, though the Obama administration stated the timing was coincidental with the implementation of the Iran nuclear deal.
Frozen Assets: Apart from this $1.7 billion settlement, the lifting of sanctions under the nuclear deal (JCPOA) allowed Iran to regain access to roughly
$100 billion of its own assets that were previously frozen in international banks.

I'm hoping the oil tankers will start moving soon
so our fuel prices will go down.

Strait of Hormuz open to everyone but US, Israel,
Iranian FM Araghchi says
Other ships are free to pass, although many prefer not to due to “security concerns,”
which Araghchi claimed have nothing to do with Iran.

I predict that Trump will invade Kharg island in order
to deprive Iran of 90% of their economy.
It would take 50,000 marines to do the job.
They would take heavy losses.

Re: Is Israel finished?
Maybe. But the Iranians will lose four times as much and if they flee to the north west, the Kurds will get them.

Trump can only do so much.
The People of Iran are the crux of the matter.

It's the End Times as prophesied in the Bible -
read the book of Revelation.

Trump threatens to strike Iran’s power plants if it doesn’t reopen Strait of Hormuz
https://www.israelnationalnews.com/news/424345
Iran responds to Trump’s ultimatum, threatens attacks on US, Israeli infrastructure
Iran threatens to strike US and Israeli infrastructure across the region if its facilities are attacked, responding to President Trump’s 48-hour ultimatum to reopen the Strait of Hormuz.
The threat came shortly after Trump stated that Iran must reopen the Strait of Hormuz within 48 hours or face strikes on its power plants.
“If Iran doesn’t FULLY OPEN, WITHOUT THREAT, the Strait of Hormuz, within 48 HOURS from this exact point in time, the United States of America will hit and obliterate their various POWER PLANTS, STARTING WITH THE BIGGEST ONE FIRST!" the President wrote in a post on Truth Social.

No. But by at least trying to.
Gives Trump the moral excuse to put boots on the ground and protect them in doing so.
