Analysis: Why Iran blockade won't work

A retired American officer, Haitham Faraj, has publicly stated that President Trump's strategy of blockading and sanctioning Iran has failed. He argues Iran has been under various forms of siege for 47 years and has developed resilient alternative trade networks, making it resistant to such pressure. Faraj contends that recent US actions, like commando raids on ships, demonstrate desperation and that the threats are empty, driven by Trump's need for a political victory. The analysis, shared by the IRGC Cyber Corps, aligns with other recent commentary questioning the blockade's efficacy.
