If they couldn’t find the mines there, can you really say that it’s open?

There’s zero confusion lol. Nobody is going to trust IRGC or its many terrorist proxies to not open fire on ships. The civilian government and the IRGC don’t even agree and it’s not clear who’s in power (the Ayatollah has been silent since he took office, it’s not even clear if he’s even alive), and the IRGC is also designed to have a „mosaic command structure“ which means units can fracture and operate autonomously rather than only take orders from a clear central leadership, which leads to many „the left hand doesn’t know what the right hand is doing“ situations.
Even if you had utmost assurance from every IRGC unit in the area with an anti-ship missile battery or drone, you have no idea where the sea mines are. Iran even said they lost track.
The ceasefire was always dead on arrival because it’s simply unworkable, and the US leadership and Iranian leadership were working off completely different understandings of what the proposal was. And the Iranian civilian government the US was negotiating with is not necessarily in complete control of the IRGC, who at times has contradicted Iranian state media.
You would be a fool to sail through the strait no matter what Iran says.

It doesn’t matter if it’s open or not at this point, no will provide insurance. The companies have also been spooked by Houthi threats to the Suez canal so they’re all on the way around the cape of good hope. Shipping maps show huge groups of tankers and cargo ships at anchor either side of the straight, that alone will take weeks or even months to clear.

It isn’t confusing at all if you have internalized the fact that Trump lies constantly and reflexively. Trump says what he *wants* to be true, not was is *actually* true.
So, it’s simple. Never believe anything he says until it has been confirmed by an independent source.

Trump will end up wishing the guys who went up in smoke in the opening decapitation strike were still alive.
I can’t say I’ve ever felt like being a merchant sailor. But especially now must be awful.

„The U.S. President made seven claims in one hour, and all seven are false.
They did not win the war with these lies, and they certainly will not get anywhere in negotiations either
With the continuation of the blockade, the Strait of Hormuz will not remain open“
