Project Freedom was launched to “reopen” Hormuz.
48 hours later it’s paused.
That isn’t inconsistency. It tells us exactly what this operation was: a test, not a solution.
Full analysis linked at the end.

Two US destroyers went through.
They were engaged with missiles, drones, and fast boats.
They fought their way through.
That’s not a corridor.
That’s a contested transit.
Iran's response is also pretty clear as the Tweet-war rages.

This matters because of a simple distinction:
Warships can operate under fire.
Merchant ships cannot.
Project Freedom proves capability.
It does not prove control.
Even US officials admit only a handful of ships moved. Some reports suggest just 2 meaningful transits in 24h.
