#1. Check that route for mines.

I think it’s clear - the whole “closed by mines” was just bluster, you don’t “open, close, open, close, etc.” when you have the whole area mined, especially if you also claim to be unsure of exactly where.
It was an empty threat, one Trump called their bluff on - and won. Now he’s in complete control of Iran’s oil, import/export ability, etc. - they can do nothing.
The inability for the IRGC to pay personnel will fracture them. We’re seeing increased attacks on them by the people. The $20B will be for the Iranian people, once we have their Uranium, and see the regime falling apart (at least). They’re just restart everyone otherwise. They’re in a fight for survival at this point, anything is negotiable today.
