NEW: Netanyahu says Israel’s campaign against Iran is “not yet over,” claiming Tehran is now “struggling to survive,” adding: “We still have more to do.”

But let this be a reminder to you: if someone says something on Bluesky without citing a source, don't trust it. In my case, it was sarcasm. But for those who took me seriously, holding out for a linked source would have prevented them from believing what they thought I said.

And Trump has a way of using brute repetition to get the media to forget his fuck-ups and scandals. So by hyper-focusing on the Strait, Trump can pretend that was the goal all along. And if it opens, the media appears poised to treat it like a victory, when it's us surrendering.

As I feared, it's hardening into common media wisdom that Trump started the war to open the Strait of Hormuz, and therefore it's an outstanding victory that he achieved this once-unthinkable accomplishment.
