TEHRAN – The main confrontation between Iran and the United States in this war has been, and continues to be, in the Persian Gulf and the Strait of Hormuz, and senior Iranian commanders now say the era when American aircraft carriers cruised these waters with impunity is over for good.
TEHRAN — Donald Trump won the White House promising to “Make America Great Again,” then promised Americans a short, cheap war on Iran. They got a closed Strait of Hormuz, Brent crude above $116 a barrel, and gasoline past $5 a gallon in several states. He and his family got a windfall.
For decades, American aircraft carriers symbolized Washington’s military might and served as instruments for imposing its will on other nations. However, the 2026 aggression against the Islamic Republic of Iran marked a turning point. Iranian anti-ship missiles targeted the American fleet, forcing it to retreat — a development that brings the end of the U.S. military presence in the region’s waters closer. As the Leader of the Islamic Revolution, Sayyid Mojtaba Hosseini Khamenei, wrote on September 28, 2026: “It will not be long before the Arabian Sea rids itself of them [the aggressor enemy] too.”
