Operation Got My Ass Whipped


US troops are to escort ships trapped in the Strait of Hormuz to freedom, according to another of those Presidential social media posts. The US President hilariously refers to his bombing campaign against Iran as the 'Middle East dispute', inviting comparison with Putin's Special Military Operation in Ukraine.


Seven US troops have already been disciplined for referring to the exercise as Operation Got My Ass Whipped, instead of it's official title of Project Freedom.


The President insists that the not at all unfortunately titled project is the act of a generous and overwhelming victor, and that he is definitely not doing it because there is stuff in the Strait the America needs, like Helium and fertilizer, that he's desperate to get. Or that it's because everyone else is massively pissed off with him for buggering up world trade.


Donald Trump has admitted that his fair-minded and generous act may result in Iran shooting at things again. He believes that the loss of merchant shipping, some cargoes and crew, and the resulting oil slicks, are a small price to pay for freedom. And anyway, he needs to do something more newsworthy than sitting out his frankly rather boring blockade.


Iranian media says that the project is the pathetic act of a bigly bigly loser with small hands, and is unworthy of the recipient of the FIFA Peace Prize.
