Trump is completely panicked! Three aircraft carriers suddenly pressuring the Middle East, U.S.-Iran situation fully escalating
On April 24th, local time, the U.S. Navy's Bush, Ford, and Lincoln carrier strike groups gathered in the Middle East, marking the largest naval deployment since the Iraq War in 2003, with over 200 aircraft and tens of thousands of troops targeting Iran.
Iran responded with direct force, officially charging tolls for ships passing through the Strait of Hormuz, with the first payment already received, directly challenging U.S. oil dollar dominance.
Israel simultaneously made a show of strength, with the defense minister publicly stating that they are fully prepared and can take action against high-level Iranian officials like Mujehtaba at any time.
Trump suddenly became frantic, with the root causes pointing to two major issues: first, Iran began collecting tolls from ships passing through the Strait of Hormuz, striking at the foundation of U.S. oil dollar hegemony;
second, Israel assassinated Iran's key figure Larijani, completely cutting off the U.S.-Iran negotiation channel.
Larijani was a close confidant of Khamenei and a bridge between Iran's hardliners and the civilian government. After his assassination, the U.S. and Iran no longer have an effective negotiation link.
Now, Iran's negotiation faction has been completely discredited, and negotiations are hopeless. Trump can only rely on the three aircraft carriers to exert military pressure, attempting to save the crumbling Middle East hegemony.
