I'm probably a little weirder than you think I am. I think my greatest step in life was the one where I almost tripped over a midget.

[The Hormuz Report @HormuzReport]

BREAKING: Iran has laid out nine conditions for reopening the Strait of Hormuz — including $300 billion in compensation, a ban on U.S. and Israeli vessels, and up to 7% transit fees — declaring the waterway will not open until the U.S. "corrects its behavior," per Fars News.

The Supreme National Security Council stated that Iran "will never compromise, whether in war or in negotiations" and that the U.S. must meet all conditions before the Strait reopens.

The conditions include:

1. An end to U.S. threats and insults
2. A permanent end to U.S. wars against Iran and its allies in Lebanon, Palestine, Yemen, and Iraq
3. Lifting the naval blockade and withdrawing U.S. forces
4. $300 billion in compensation for war damages
5. Lifting all sanctions
6. Unconditional release of all frozen assets
7. Iran's right to charge up to 7% on cargo
8. A ban on U.S. and Israeli vessels
9. A 20% violation toll on ships if conditions are breached

This is not a negotiation — it's a surrender document. Iran is not asking for concessions. It is demanding U.S. capitulation on every front: money, military withdrawal, sanctions, and control over the Strait. The $300 billion figure is not a starting point; it's the price of doing business.

The U.S. can accept these terms or keep the Strait closed. There is no middle ground. Tehran has drawn a line, and Washington is on the other side of it. The ball is now in Trump's court — but the conditions aren't changing.

BREAKING: Chinese intelligence believes Israel's Mossad may be behind the Ceuta migrant crisis in Spain, aiming to punish Spain over its opposition to the Iran war and refusal to allow the use of Spanish bases for US military aircraft, per El Mundo.

Chinese intelligence analysis centers concluded that the deterioration of Spain-Israel relations motivated Mossad to infiltrate agents into the migration crisis between Morocco and Spain to foment discontent and chaos, with Colombian President Petro also directly accusing Netanyahu of being ultimately responsible.
