Iran’s Worst NIGHTMARE IS Actually Happening

About this video

Max analyzes Iran’s reported attempt to draft legislation requiring U.S. military vessels to obtain permission before transiting the Strait of Hormuz, while the USS Boxer amphibious assault ship with F-35Bs and 2,200 Marines continues operations in the Arabian Sea. He examines what he describes as Iran’s desperation amid a U.S. naval blockade that he reports has redirected 49 commercial vessels, and discusses his theory that the strait closure was tied to protecting Iran’s supreme leader, whose public absence Max highlights.

Key takeaways

• Max reports that Iran’s parliament committee is drafting legislation requiring U.S. and Israeli vessels to obtain permission for Hormuz transit, which he characterizes as an attempt to legitimize extortion that the U.S. has flatly rejected
• Max describes the USS Boxer amphibious ready group deployment with F-35Bs and Marines as part of what he calls a naval blockade that has reportedly redirected 49 vessels and costs Iran $500 million daily
• Max theorizes that Iran’s Hormuz closure policy was primarily an insurance mechanism for the supreme leader’s safety rather than an oil or sanctions strategy, and suggests internal fractures exist within Iranian leadership
