Iran's Underground Arsenal Explains Hormuz Closure
- Michael Savage argues the Strait of Hormuz remains effectively closed because Iran invested in underground missile and drone infrastructure rather than conventional forces.
- He cites claimed stockpiles: 100,000 attack drones and 10,000 ballistic missiles fired from hidden sites beneath schools, hospitals, and mosques.
U.S. Destroyer Limits Raise Risk In Hormuz
- Savage highlights limited U.S. surface assets and role constraints as reasons tankers avoid Hormuz despite naval power.
- He notes destroyers are few, costly (~$1 billion each), and primarily assigned to protect carriers, making them vulnerable to shore-launched anti-ship weapons.
Unmask Alleged Internal Threats Immediately
- Savage urges vigorous unmasking of what he calls an Islamo-fascist movement within U.S. institutions.
- He specifically names Representatives Rashida Tlaib and Ilhan Omar as examples he says are working for the enemy and not being challenged.
