Jeremy Hunt today warned that Iran may be choosing a “dangerous path” of “illegal and destabilising” behaviour after it seized a British-flagged tanker in the Gulf.

The Royal Navy is unable to prevent a British ship being captured by Iran.

I have suggested it. I suggested to UAE.

There is a narrow stretch of about 1000 feet or more where it might be dug. A ship channel to and from that place would also have to be done to make sure the water is deep enough.

One would have to expand on the following coordinates to see where I am talking about...

Latitude 26.1839469 N
Longitude 56.3522496 E

I have a feeling Trump will be the first president to break the NWO’s post-WWII ban on using nukes as weapons of war.

This country has been hobbled by the NWO and its Satan-worshiping Deep State minions for long enough. Using nukes again would send a clear message that the US has reclaimed its sovereignty.
