Where is the IRAN war headed at this point?

Date: May 9th, 2026 6:53 PM Author: Dull irradiated pit rigpig It seems like escalation is impossible, as any attempt to escalate will just cause Iran to destroy more of the middle east -- including desalination plants. Iran isn't going to give up nuclear materials. So at this point, what exactly is Trump et al. going to do? (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5865402&forum_id=2)#49877270) |

Date: May 9th, 2026 7:21 PM Author: Beady-eyed Parlour Psychic Blockade right up until the last minute for midterms (August?), followed by drummed up bullshit that results in some massive attack that sets the country on fire. Gas prices drop in the fall. 2 things: the blockade will continue as long as the US consumers can stomach it, and the Trump will have to fuck up Iran because that's what Americans want. The last part is sad and unnecessary but its the only politically viable option.
I hope people understand that Iran has been allowed to act tough because the US doesn't want to disrupt oil infrastructure. The US military could level the country in 6 hours. The IRCG could continue to fight but it would be for nothing at that point. The US has actually let empty tankers through the blockade to prevent Iranian wells from getting total fucked. Each empty tanker is like 3% of Irans storage capacity.
Also while I'm here, Iran is poor as fuck. Their GDP per cap is half of Saudi arabia. The Iranian regime has been the worst thing for the Iranian people. It's a totally artificial hindrance. |

Date: May 9th, 2026 7:47 PM Author: Boyish Up-to-no-good Stag Film I'll chime in here that the US is also making out like a bandit by supplying the world with Oil. The real losers here are EUROPE and CHINA, because they lack the capacity to OPEN UP DAT HORMUSSY and choose to do nothing about it. $5/gal might be the market clearing price in the US, but eurocucks are paying double and lots of Chinese refineries are going to be assfucked because running out of oil and shutting down is an absolute DISASTER for them. Just imagine you have a pipe full transporting super glue, it's fine as long as the glue keeps moving but once its allowed to sit still it will harden and ruin the pipe.

Date: May 9th, 2026 7:51 PM Author: Beady-eyed Parlour Psychic Energy is important because AI is energy = computation. But the US is now the only supplier of the helium needed to manufacturer high end chips. China is pretty far behind in the AI game.
Lots of countries that entertained belt and road efforts now realize China doesn't have the ingredients needed for the future. GDP as a percentage of US peaked in 2022 and it's not ever getting that close again. |

Date: May 9th, 2026 8:21 PM Author: Boyish Up-to-no-good Stag Film Because refinery owners in CHYNA and to a lesser extent the rest of asia will pay ANYTHING for a barrel of crude right now in order to avoid shutting down. US producers know this situation is temporary so are being cautious about firing up more production. We know there are plenty of plays profitable only above $80/barrel out there sitting idle, but it costs to reopen and then shut them down again and producers don't think it makes sense yet.

Date: May 9th, 2026 8:38 PM Author: Exciting indigo ceo 🚨🇮🇷 Iran is moving to take control of 7 undersea internet cables in the Strait of Hormuz...
The details are remarkable.
Under the new policy being considered, foreign operators would be required to obtain permits to use these cables, pay fees, follow Iranian law, and all management and maintenance would be handled by Iranian companies.
The IRGC has previously warned it could physically target these same cables.
This is the same Hormuz playbook applied to digital infrastructure.
Iran already passed parliamentary legislation establishing toll collection on shipping.
Now Tehran is preparing to apply identical leverage to the data cables that carry traffic between Europe, Asia, and the Gulf.
The strait isn't just a chokepoint for oil anymore.
Iran is positioning it as a chokepoint for global communications.
The strategic implications are MASSIVE.
These cables carry an enormous share of data traffic between Asian economies and European markets.
Banking transactions. Stock trading. Cloud services. Government communications.
The same infrastructure that powers global commerce runs through waters Iran is now claiming jurisdiction over.
For Tehran, this is the next iteration of the leverage strategy that has worked all war.
Block oil shipping until you get sanctions relief.
Now propose to control data flows until you get more concessions.
Each new chokepoint Iran formalizes creates additional pressure that the U.S. has to address in any final deal.
The IRGC's warning that it could target the cables physically is the velvet glove on the iron fist.
Pay the fees, follow Iranian law, accept Iranian management, or risk the entire global communications architecture between Europe and Asia going dark.
That's the kind of asymmetric threat that doesn't require nuclear weapons or even particularly sophisticated military capability.
