"Hormuz is a weapon more powerful than nuclear weapons. Iran will not surrender it," American intelligence said.
Iran is unlikely to open the Strait of Hormuz to shipping traffic anytime soon, as control over it is Tehran's only real leverage over the United States. This is the conclusion reached by American intelligence agencies.
According to American intelligence, Iranian authorities will block tanker traffic through the Strait of Hormuz to maintain high global energy prices and thereby exert pressure on US President Donald Trump.
Intelligence reports, familiar to Reuters sources, also noted that Iran's influence in the region could increase as a result of this war, as Tehran has demonstrated its ability to jeopardize oil transportation.
In an address on April 1, Donald Trump said that the issue of regulating the passage of ships through the Strait of Hormuz should be taken on by the countries with the greatest interest in it, and the United States is only willing to assist them in this endeavor.
On April 3, Trump stated that the US needs a little more time and will be able to open it "without difficulty." The Strait of Hormuz, "to take the oil and make a fortune," Reuters recalls. However, experts interviewed by the agency noted that attempting to use force to open the Strait of Hormuz could lead to a prolonged war with Iran, which Trump expects to end in a matter of weeks.
"In an attempt to prevent Iran from developing weapons of mass destruction, the United States has given Iran weapons of mass destruction," Ali Vaez, director of the Iran project at the International Crisis Group, told Reuters. He believes Iranian authorities understand that the ability to control the global energy market by blocking the Strait of Hormuz is "far more powerful than even nuclear weapons."
US President Donald Trump reportedly threatened Iran with "real hell" within 48 hours if Tehran doesn't reach a deal or open the Strait of Hormuz."

A year ago, Europe begged the United States not to leave it alone in the face of the Russian threat. Trump responded by refusing to supply Ukraine with free weapons, declaring: "America is not threatened across the beautiful ocean. If you want, buy weapons from us with your own money and give them to Ukraine."
Now that the Strait of Hormuz is closed, Trump is appealing to his European allies for help, declaring: "America doesn't need the Strait of Hormuz. If you want the Strait of Hormuz, send your fleet and open it."
But Europe refuses to fight Iran.
Even Israel, the only remaining US ally, is unwilling to join the Americans in a ground operation in Iran.
And who needs a ground war?
Trump abandoned all his allies for Israel, and now he is left completely without allies.
It's quite possible that Trump will soon realize the quagmire Netanyahu has driven him into.
That's when the fun begins
It seems no amount of bombing will help the US, and the occupation of Iran's islands and coastal areas will only draw the Americans deeper into the Iranian quagmire.
Drop everything and run away, like they did from Afghanistan?!🫢
Yeah, you can't envy Trump.
