Iran re-closed the Strait of Hormuz Friday instead of heading to Switzerland for nuclear negotiations, citing Israel’s refusal to pull forces out of southern Lebanon and US forces’ ongoing presence in the region.

In a statement read over maritime radio channels, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) said the US was in violation of the memorandum of understanding between Washington and Tehran, which President Trump and Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian signed Wednesday.

“Since Israel’s withdrawal from Lebanon, the complete lifting of the naval blockade, and the withdrawal of American terrorist forces from the Persian Gulf and the region are among the main conditions of the agreement between Iran and the United States, the Strait of Hormuz will remain closed until these conditions are met,” it said. “All ships are requested, for the sake of their security and safety, not to approach the Strait of Hormuz. Any vessel that defies this directive will be targeted.”

    There are no innocent Israeli scum. They are all guilty of the rape and genocide of real Semites (Palestinians).

    Israel can have its peace when every last motherfucking zionist is all dead.

            I’m pro genocide of all zionists. that includes the filthy subhuman Israeli rapists, the jihadist Muslims, zionist Hindus, zionist Buddhists, and the zionist Christians (most of MAGA fits into that last category).

            if every last zionist abomination in the world died tomorrow. the world would be a much safer and peaceful place.
