The blockade is still there, dope.
Our ability to demand maximal concessions to accept America's withdrawal will not decline over time, it will increase inversely to the US tolerance for economic pain.
Thus, Washington is at some point going to make at least one existentially humiliating concession to extricate itself from the crisis it created.
Trump might agree to suspend all secondary sanctions against the Islamic Republic, or accept our demonstrated capacity to tax traffic through Hormuz, or permanently evacuate its bases in the region.
He might even do all of these, if God wills it!
The boasted US "blockade" might plausibly remain as a face-saving fiction.
Already, the over-stretched US navy clearly dares not intercept Iranian shipments heading to and from Russia, Pakistan, India, and China.
Alternate land and sea corridors will compensate for any continuing inconvenience disrupting our shipping.
When Washington eventually does face reality, Trump will have achieved the opposite ofhis intentions in launching its aggression at the behest of the Zionists.
America's reputational stature in the world, already in tatters, will suffer further decline.
A vastly more economically-empowered Islamic Republic with the throat of the world economy still in our hands will be one of the results!
Trump’s choices are limited to accepting our demands now, or accepting them later after a catastrophic economic disaster for the US economy.
Maybe then, he will have learned precisely why none of his predecessors had acted as he has.
