So says Iran:

Live updates: Iran’s military command says it has closed Hormuz again over US blockade

CAIRO (AP) — The British military said Saturday that two gunboats from Iran’s Revolutionary Guard opened fire on a tanker transiting the Strait of Hormuz, after Iran said it has reimposed restrictions on the vital waterway.

The United Kingdom Maritime Trade Operations center said the tanker and crew were reported safe, without identifying the vessel or its destination.

Iran announced earlier Saturday it was reimposing restrictions on the strait in response to a U.S. blockade on Iranian shipping and ports. Iran has prevented vessels from crossing throughout the seven-week-long war, except for ones it authorizes.

I thought Trump said the war was over and we won!
I thought Trump said the strait was open for business and Iran was giving up all their uranium?
Just more lies?

How much bullshit can Dope & company possibly eat?
Stay tuned...

Seems Trump the Conqueror's declaration of victory was premature, just like his other near daily announcements of victory have been. Iran denies it has agreed to give up it's U, which Trump the Scientist insists on calling "nuclear dust". Iran says strait closed, because Trump the Pirate King did not stop his blockade. And, seems Iran still has a Navy, in spite of Trump the Perfect insisting their Navy had been destroyed.

I have wondered, for six weeks. Seems the answer is becoming clear. Trump the Magnificent is Baghdad Bob. The Mullahs are more trustworthy than the POTUS. Give me a second to get my head around that.

Steve
