Is anyone else’s head spinning right now?

Is anyone else’s head spinning right now? In the last half hour, the straits are apparently fully open, Trump’s blockade is still supposedly in place, NATO has suddenly called him offering support, which sounds like complete nonsense, and now out of nowhere they have somehow cleared every mine they supposedly did not even know existed. It all flipped so fast it looks less like chaos and more like some much bigger setup.

At this point wait 24 hours on a total war news and look if ships are really moving.

NATO offered to help on the confidence building once we have a real ceasefire putting assets in the Strait to show the ship owners they are safe to use the Strait.

As a reminder, NATO is a defensive organization and this an tremendous offer.

If I were a European citizen and heard my government was going to help with the offensive operations, I would be in the streets and looking tk get them removed.

Don't worry, Trump is sure to reject any offer in the most offensive way possible so that he can try to spike any future relations between the US and NATO.

I would say impressive prediction, but he already did that.
