Lying in this instance is probably a tadge OTT
Ten days ago, he warned that the war could last four to six weeks.
Now, he's boasting that it could be over "very soon."
"Not this week," he told an audience in Florida, but objectives are "pretty well complete".
Missile and drone launches are down by 92% from the start of the war so it's clear the IRGC are running low on munitions, Israel have taken out the bulk of launchers but being mobile there's still some to go. Drones are an unknown number as far as I know.
I think there at the halfway mark.

I hadn’t appreciated how big the country is. One look at the countries on its western borders show how easy it is to break sanctions
This one I think

They was supplyng drones to Russia only weeks ago, they dont take too long to get a batch ready, cheaper than missiles and as effective
Far rage was boasting to his supporters how he was flying to Maralargo to dine with the Don, seems he doesn't have the status and priority he imagined.:
Too much toxic waste in the same room at the same time?
Just read a very interesting article in the Spectator about how the Iran/Russia/Venezuela situation has put China on the back foot, financially and politically.
Enough to give Trump the upper hand when him and Xi meet in a few weeks time.

I've read articles over the past few weeks arguing it both ways. The analysis in the Spectator is obvious but simplistic. China has always known Iran was extremely vulnerable, so it has never been a critical partner for China. Venezuela was small beer.

I saw an aticle - can't find it now - saying how Iran produces drones of many types in many places, too many to just go wipe out.
As long as they can get together a few , and they can get a proportion through to ships and oil refineries in surrounding countries, then can be a real PITA to Trump and the oil supply for a long time. A single drone would probably put paid to the trans Saudi pipeline, too.
They may not be able to actually hit many ships in the straits, so Trumpinsurance would be the way out. He hasn't fixed that yet
There are a lot of ships out at sea, it'll take a while for the pips to start squeezing.
Hence some are saying the price could double, later.
It's about 3-4 weeks when reserves HAVE to be used., though Korea has about 90 days, Japan170 days, of reserves.
Hurry up and wait and see.
