It appears that Ghalibaf indicated that Iran 🇮🇷 is closing the strait of Hormuz once again: “America 🇺🇸 still hasn't learned that bullying and breaking promises are no longer cost-free. Let me put it plainly: if you strike, you'll get hit. Don't flail around pointlessly, or you'll sink even deeper: the Strait of Hormuz WILL ONLY OPEN with ‘Iranian 🇮🇷 arrangements,’ not American 🇺🇸 threats.”

I think it’s now fair to say that the ceasefire is OVER. Washington 🇺🇸 is moving back into DIRECT military action against Iran 🇮🇷 after the latest attacks around Hormuz. Likely timing for a major IRANIAN 🇮🇷 response: Many indicators still point to a delay until AFTER the July 9 burial. 🪦 This COULD be a POPCORN 🍿 STYLE UPCOMING WEEKEND. THE FIRE 🔥 HAS BEEN LIT. THE IRANIAN MINDSET OF “REVENGE” AGAINST AMERICA 🇺🇸 AND ISRAEL 🇮🇱 IS BOOMING THIS WEEK WITH THE AYATOLLAH FUNERAL ⚰️ Internally within the 🇮🇷 regime, these 🇺🇸 attacks DURING THE Ayatollah FUNERAL, just lit the fuse to a MEGA BOMB 💥

HERE WE GO AGAIN. 2nd night in a ROW of attacks on Iran 🇮🇷 WHATEVER the Iranian Regime had for ATTACK 🚀 plans for the COMING RETALIATION RESPONSE to the USA 🇺🇸 attacks 24 HOURS AGO ⏱️ … Well, *THAT* COMING RESPONSE JUST MOVED ANOTHER NOTCH HIGHER.

The MoU Islamabad Memorandum, a U.S.-Iran agreement brokered by Pakistan, has COLLAPSED. Trump just declared OUT LOUD, AT NATO, that the June MOU is clinically DEAD. He called the Islamabad framework "OVER" and the negotiations a "WASTE OF TIME", all while ordering, from inside the summit, the largest strikes against Iran 🇮🇷 since the ceasefire. Here's why the words matter more than the fire 🚀 show. That MOU only functioned as long as nobody at the top admitted what everyone already knew, which is that BOTH SIDES had been CHEATING on it for weeks. Trump admitted it. Once the American 🇺🇸 president stops defending a deal in public, there's little left holding it up. The vocabulary tells you where his head is. "SCUM." "SICK PEOPLE." TRUMP talks that way when he's decided the other guy isn't worth talking to anymore. BUCKLE UP.

🇮🇷 Iran Funeral & NOW Retaliation 🚀 Timing: What to Expect? The multi-day state funeral for Iran’s late Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei continues through Thursday, July 9, 2026 (burial in Mashhad). Today (July 8) features ceremonies in Iraq’s 🇮🇶 holy cities of Najaf and Karbala. SO THE KEY 🔑 question: When might Iran 🇮🇷 retaliate against the US? 🇺🇸 Public statements and context suggest MAJOR DIRECT MILITARY ACTION is likely DELAYED UNTIL AFTER July 9: • The funeral involves MASSIVE processions, MILLIONS of participants, and significant security/logistical demands across Iran 🇮🇷 and Iraq.🇮🇶 • Iran has warned the US 🇺🇸 and Israel 🇮🇱 against ANY attacks during the funeral period, threatening “HARSH RETALIATION.” • US officials (including President Trump) have noted a temporary pause in strikes and talks to allow the mourning period. • Crowds have chanted for revenge (“Death to America”) while the event is used to project national unity and regime strength. After burial on July 9, Iran 🇮🇷 could shift focus to responses while maintaining the INCREASING “avengers of Khamenei” narrative. Important caveats: • Asymmetric or PROXY actions could occur AT ANY TIME if provoked. • US strikes JUST OCCURRED during funeral days, which COULD influence timing. • No official Iranian timeline has been announced YET—everything remains fluid amid ongoing war tensions and paused negotiations. This is based on reports from Reuters, CNN, Al Jazeera, AP, and others tracking the event. The situation can change VERY rapidly.

Iranian President, Masoud Pezeshkian has urgently LEFT IRAQ 🇮🇶 And has returned to Iran 🇮🇷 due to US 🇺🇸 strikes. His plane was escorted by Iranian fighter jets ✈️ due to security concerns.

CNN reports that US Secretary of Defense Hegseth will visit Israel 🇮🇱 for the first time tomorrow, breaking from Trump's delegation in Turkey. 🇹🇷 He's expected to meet with Prime Minister Netanyahu and Defense Minister Israel Katz, aimed at calming Israel's 🇮🇱 concerns about the sale of American 🇺🇸 F-35 jets to Turkey. 🇹🇷 HEGSETH ISN’T JUST PASTING A VISIT TO ISRAEL 🇮🇱

Most of Iranian 🇮🇷 senior officials are in Iraq 🇮🇶 and could become easy targets for US/Israel to launch ASSASSINATION STRIKES on them. Bahrain 🇧🇭 and Kuwait 🇰🇼 are expected to be targeted by Iran 🇮🇷 within hours.

Any deal between US 🇺🇸 and Iran 🇮🇷 seems unlikely. Bandar Abbas Iran 🇮🇷 under attack

The US 🇺🇸 military is launching "POWERFUL" strikes against Iran 🇮🇷 for attacking innocent civilian vessels in the Strait of Hormuz, CENTCOM confirms They're doing this despite President Trump being in Turkey 🇹🇷 at this moment.

The U.S. 🇺🇸 is weighing military action against targets INSIDE Iran. 🇮🇷 Israeli 🇮🇱 officials have been updated by the USA 🇺🇸 as tensions have escalated over the past 24 hours. Iran’s IRGC is ALREADY THREATENING RETALIATION IN ADVANCE — BY including Iran 🇮🇷 stating that they WILL BE ATTACKING 🇮🇱 ISRAEL — IF the U.S. 🇺🇸 moves. In the meantime, the U.S. 🇺🇸 today REVOKED IRAN 🇮🇷 OIL "SANCTIONS RELIEF" AFTER the TANKER 🚢 STRIKES IN the STRAIT OF HORMUZ All kinds of craziness lies AHEAD.

Update On the count…some OSINT reports put the total at 5 tankers 🚢 hit in 24 hours. That figure appears to double-count — the UKMTO advisories, the Reuters-sourced ships, and the diverted vessel likely overlap. Al Jazeera notes it's unclear whether the missile-strike reports and the UKMTO reports describe the same ships. Treat "3 struck + 1 diverted" as the verifiable picture, exact total unconfirmed. Either way, 3-5 attacks in 24 hours is not a mistake. It is CALCULATED. To see what Iran 🇮🇷 can get away with, and HOW FAR they can push the security envelope, before daddy Trump 🇺🇸 comes in for punishment.

Meanwhile 🚨 IRAN 🇮🇷 is trying to make decisions FOR HEZBOLLAH in Lebanon 🇱🇧 Iranian Foreign Minister Araghchi: “Negotiations with the US 🇺🇸 will NOT RESUME until the clause concerning Lebanon 🇱🇧 in the MOU is implemented.” “NO FINAL AGREEMENT with the US 🇺🇸 will be reached as long as Israeli 🇮🇱 forces do not withdraw from Lebanon.”🇱🇧

A lot of news in one headline. President Trump departs for Ankara, Turkey 🇹🇷 today ahead of the NATO summit on July 7–8 — his 1st major test of whether allies will follow through on last year's pledge to spend 5% of GDP on defense by 2035. Analysts are calling Ankara the "first report card" after The Hague. Trump arrives with fresh grievances, having publicly named Italy, 🇮🇹 the UK, 🇬🇧 Germany, 🇩🇪 France 🇫🇷 and especially Spain 🇪🇸("a horror show") as allies not pulling their weight, and TRUMP has repeatedly floated pulling the US 🇺🇸 out of NATO. A bipartisan Senate delegation is traveling separately as a counterweight. Key sidelines: a bilateral with Zelensky is set for Wednesday, landing as Ukraine 🇺🇦 faces a critical Patriot-missile SHORTAGE — hours after a Russian 🇷🇺 barrage killed 20+ in Kyiv. Trump also plans to meet PRESIDENT Erdogan 🇹🇷 and Syria's 🇸🇾 al-Sharaa. (JOLANI) Notably, Trump’s flying aboard the new Air Force One gifted by Qatar. 🇶🇦

MACRON HAS FOUND HIS NEW JIHADI PARTNER French 🇫🇷 President Emmanuel Macron arrived in DAMASCUS 🇸🇾 today to embrace Ahmed al-Sharaa — better known as AL-JOLANI, a “former” JIHADI LEADER now being repackaged as a statesman IN A SUIT. Macron called it a “new chapter of PEACE and stability.” BUT In reality, it is Western laundering 🤑 in real time. A man with no moral compass, no integrity, and no shame is now helping TO SANITIZE a JIHADI KILLER. WHY? Because there are contracts to sign, aircraft ✈️ to sell, & influence to buy. 💰 Syria 🇸🇾 is reportedly preparing to order 8 🆕 French 🇫🇷 Airbus aircraft. France is promising infrastructure and finance deals. And to top it off, Macron is returning 23 Syrian artifacts as a symbolic gift to seal the moment.
