President Trump on Saturday gave Iran 48 hours to reopen the Strait of Hormuz or reach a peace agreement — or face a new round of military strikes targeting the country's energy infrastructure.

He threatens Iran, again, unless they reach an agreement. Then, hours later, announces more Iranian "leaders" have been killed.

Trump: Iran military leaders 'terminated' in strike

President Donald Trump on Saturday said multiple Iranian military leaders were killed in a major strike on Tehran, hours after issuing a separate warning giving Iran 48 hours to comply with U.S. demands.

In a post on Truth Social, Trump wrote: "Many of Iran's Military Leaders, who have led them poorly and unwisely, are terminated, along with much else, with this massive strike in Tehran! President DONALD J. TRUMP"

So....why were all those honchos in one place, at one time? Were they suckered into meeting to discuss a proposal to the US, so they could all be killed? There are reports that the meeting where Kahmenei and many others, were killed, was called to discuss a proposal from the Trump regime. That is also consistent with Israeli practice: where officials of Hamas were invited to Qatar to discuss terms with the Israelis, The Israelis then bombed the apartment building in Qatar where the Hamas delegation was living.

Rant #1, as updated and amended, states that the objective is to cut off oil exports from the Gulf, for the great profit of USian big oil.

With gas prices on the rise, Trump officials discuss feared $150 oil

White House senior staff and administration officials are discussing the possibility that oil prices climb to a record $150 or more per barrel as the Iran war drags into its second month, according to a person familiar with the conversations and two people close to the White House.

President Donald Trump has also heard from Treasury officials about the near-term outlook for energy prices, which the department now sees as likely to remain above $100 per barrel for some time. According to the person familiar with internal discussions, the administration sees that number as “a baseline” and isn’t ruling out the possibility of prices rising as high as $200 per barrel.

The oil price discussions are largely being run through the National Energy Dominance Council, a standard policy coordinating committee that includes the Defense, Energy, Commerce, State and Interior departments,

How do you "dominate" the energy market? Take the other guy's production off line, to create a shortage, that you can profit from.
