Iran knows they're boned in this situation.

Which means the Revolutionary Guard will be out in their speedboats again, harassing shipping in the Strait of Hormuz to show the world their military might.

Back in the 1980s Iran was showing the world how tough it was and finally made a huge boo boo... they the USS Samuel B Roberts with a mine.

Given that was when we had a real man -- Ronald Reagan -- as president, the US kicked off operation Preying Mantis.

Iranian losses -- two oil platforms being used as military bases, 5 naval assets, and two fighter jets.

US losses -- 1 helicopter and 2 Marines.

The hysterical thing was Iran's response....

They went from ALLAH ALLAH ALLAH! JIHAD JIHAD JIHAD! to suing the United States at the International Court of Justice, claiming breach of a treaty the US had signed with Iran in the 1950s.

It looks like Iran has blinked. CNBC is saying that Iran has announced that it will not further escalate the conflict with Israel.

And that is taking some of the pressure off oil prices today: https://www.cnbc.com/2024/04/22/crude-oil-prices-today-wti-brent-fall-after-iran-says-no-escalation.html

In other news, Yale University anti-Israeli protests resulted in riot police being called out with numerous arrests made: https://www.foxnews.com/us/yale-anti-israel-protesters-arrested-police-close-in-occupation

Martyrs are the poor people.  Powerful and their families aren't supposed to be martyrs.  That's the whole point in being powerful.

I know it wasn't supposed to be funny, but I sure got a good laugh out of her story.  She seemed genuinely surprised that when she didn't stop trespassing, they not only detained her and wasted hours of her valuable time, but the school also had the nerve to kick her out of housing for students and not let her eat there for free!  As she put it, they weren't "supportive".  It's as if she wasn't special and her thoughts of how the world should work didn't matter.

Oh well, she went to school to learn, there's an additional lesson.

But, like, the rules shouldn't apply to her!

Because she's a POC!

And she's protesting injustice! Using her First Amendment rights!

And he's the daughter of a Congressman!

This is an outrage!

Her actions should NOT have consequences!

I mean, I can kinda understand her confusion and upset.  If Hunter Biden has taught America anything it's that family of the rich and powerful don't face consequences.  I can fully believe she thought she was untouchable due to her Identity and Mom's position.

Sometimes reality hits you hard.



Although I saw on X this morning she's back on campus in the zone, suspended or not, so maybe she's more right than we want to believe.

And oil continues to drop since Iran basically surrendered and admitted it's a toothless weasel. 

It's now under $81 a barrel.

I guess that was his plan all along...

His warning to Iran -- DON'T -- will go down in history as the greatest projection of American influence ever recorded.
