Marco Rubio: "Right now you have a country who is unlawfully, criminally, and illegally taking possession of an International waterway and blowing up commercial vessels. I don't know if people appreciate how outrageous this is."

Every time they put a new mouthpiece up on the podium for this war we get further away from the truth. The reason Iran is 'taking possession of an International waterway' is because the President of the US attacked Iran, unprovoked, and they are using this as a tactic. Trump chose this.

The U.S. is striking vessels and killing people in the Caribbean Sea and Eastern Pacific without public evidence of drug smuggling. “I don’t know if people appreciate how outrageous this is.”

* The "Vietnam quagmire" refers to the U.S. entanglement in a prolonged, unwinnable war, characterized by incremental escalations, faulty intelligence, and an inability to exit without losing credibility. { Trump's Iran War, is the Strait of Hormuz "Quagmire". } * bsky.app/profile/carl...

Trump involves America in a quagmire, Entanglement in a needless Israeli sponsored Iran War, closing off the Strait of Hormuz, cutting off 20% of the global oil supply that will in time cause a global economic recession, & now Trump whining NATO will not solve problem created by Israel & Trump.

I mean they are laughing at us now. I bet he won some money against Hegseth by saying that. No way could you say that with a straight face but fair play, he did. Hope he is enjoying his smile after the War Crime Tribunals

Huh? Listen wet lips, take a little break and review the enormous pile of shit we now call our State Department. You are fucking complicit and I hope to hell you are held accountable. Your raging boner to take Cuba is clouding your already tiny addled mind.

And Marco Rubio happens to serve as the Secretary of State for that country. bsky.app/profile/atru...

Rubes because the strait of Hormuz is only about 21 nautical miles wide at its narrowest point, the territorial waters (which extend 12 nautical miles from a coast) of the two bordering countries overlap.  Iran: Owns the northern portion of the strait.  Oman: Owns the southern portion

The sheer arrogance and lack of self-awareness is amazing. I guess this is not so different than what the US has done now for decades but it is just so unveiled now. Bush lied his ass off to us to justify Iraq. Now its boating in the wrong place = summary execution.

Yeah, and they weren’t doing that before Trump started bombing them , far as I know the straits were open a couple of months ago, no toll to pass through

Rubio is nothing but a puppet. It’s so shameful for him to be on the role stage. I’m making these claims because everyone knows a demented, corrupt and compromised Trump and cronies created a war, unnecessarily and illegally. Should be a work home.

He said this in front of cameras? With a straight face? The U.S. is about 6,600ish miles away from Iran. Who’s there illegally?
