Day 18 Iran War Update for Israel by Trump.
Day 18 Iran War Update for Israel by Trump.
Americans have now paid for $42+ Billion dollars for 18 days of losing, forever wars for Israel, to expand into the middle east and get more oil. Paid for by Americans.
Trump says he will Bomb Iran again “for fun” on 3/15/26 A24 update. Straight of Hormuz closed since Feb 28 2026 When Trump striked Iran first. American News Media blackout in U.S.A, Americans dont know the truth.
Americans still think the Straight of Hormuz is open on day 18. Only Chinese and Russian ships are passing safely. U.S. ships get hit with Iranian drones or missiles. Gas is going to $5-$10 per gallon for Americans soon.

The military of the Islamic Republic of Iran, officially known as the Islamic Republic of Iran Armed Forces, features a unique dual-structure design established after the 1979 revolution to ensure both external defense and regime protection. At the apex stands the Supreme Leader (currently Ali Khamenei or his successor), who serves as commander-in-chief with ultimate authority over all forces. Beneath this level, the structure splits into two parallel main components: the regular armed forces, called Artesh (Army), which handles conventional territorial defense, border security, and traditional warfare through its branches including Ground Forces, Navy, Air Force, and Air Defense Force.
With the more powerful and ideologically driven Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC or Sepah), which operates independently with its own Ground Forces, Aerospace Force (controlling missiles and drones), Navy, the elite Quds Force for extraterritorial operations, and the vast Basij paramilitary militia for internal security and mass mobilization. Coordinating bodies like the Armed Forces General Staff (AFGS) and Khatam ol Anbia Headquarters provide oversight and joint planning, but the parallel setup deliberately prevents any single entity from dominating, reflecting Iran’s strategic emphasis on revolutionary survival alongside national defense.
Iran has retaliated with repeated barrages of ballistic missiles, drones (including possibly modified Russian Shahed variants), and cluster munitions against Israel—causing civilian impacts and injuries—while launching attacks on U.S. bases and Gulf allies such as Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Jordan, and the UAE, though its responses have diminished in scale due to depleted stockpiles and fear among crews. High-profile assassinations continue, with Israel claiming to have killed de facto leader Ali Larijani and Basij commander Gholam Reza Soleimani in overnight strikes near Tehran on March 17, further fracturing command structures under Mojtaba Khamenei’s uncertain succession.
The conflict has disrupted global oil flows through partial Strait of Hormuz interference, spiked Iran oil profits, and energy prices above $100 per barrel, drawn in regional actors via proxy escalations (including Hezbollah in Lebanon), and prompted internal Iranian civilian casualties exceeding thousands alongside growing domestic unrest, with no ceasefire in sight amid U.S. assertions of mission success in neutralizing threats and Iranian vows of prolonged resistance.
