The Strait of Hormuz remains open to all shipping except vessels linked to “Iran’s enemies”, Iranian media reports published on Sunday quoted Iran’s representative to the U.N. maritime agency as saying.
Ali Mousavi’s comments came from an interview published on Friday by Chinese news agency Xinhua, before U.S. President Donald Trump’s threat to target Iranian power plants if the strait was not “fully open” within 48 hours.
The threat of Iranian attacks during the U.S.-Israeli war on Iran has kept most ships from getting through the narrow strait, the conduit for around a fifth of global oil and liquefied natural gas supplies, threatening a global energy shock.
We’ve effectively put sanctions on ourselves, amazing.
And with the tarrifs he imposed you’re taxing yourselves too!
Trump’s tariffs on the whole world are also effectively self-imposed sanctions on the USA.
Art of the deal
Shart and the heel
P2025 is literally all about bankrupting the USA and selling it to billionaires and enslaving the population.
This is just part of the plan
And then the country collapsing because they are short-sighted as fuck
They really think that all this destruction will be better for them, huh?
It will be. They pay a lot of money to insulate themselves from the only real consequences from these actions. It’s true that capitalists are incapable of longterm planning, but the wealthiest only really have to worry about a potential assailant more than anything else since the economy and legal system is oriented toward their interests. The death cult thing is not a joke, these people think that any level of destruction to the world can’t penetrate a bunker.
Use AI with the help of social media to control us.
Which is just the latest iteration of the 1971 business roundtable that made this long game to seize control.
Art of the deal.
I am so tired of all the winning!
Not just ourselves, anyone that’s an ally.
They’ve mined the strait, so it really is everyone.
Non Western aligned vessels are getting through albeit slowly. Several Asian countries have received deliveries of liquid petroleum gas and China is still getting oil. In fact Iran has said they will let oil tankers through if the oil is purchased in yuan (to undermine the petrodollar).
Reportedly there is a secure channel between the island of Qeshm and Larak that they are using to get these ships through.
There are navigators/guides that board the ships and guide them through safely… at least the ones that are approved. It is a very well-paid position that comes with high fees.
Anyone that mines waters keeps charts to navigate through. Since mines were invented. I remember reading about the Japanese getting the Russian charts in 1911 or whatever around then, to invade the far east, where they wiped out the russian fleet, the arrogant russians not fearing a non white country, despite their astronomic industrialization with the help of european powers, and ingenious finance arraangements building industries with government capital then auctioning them to private industry and using that money to start the next industrialization. The most rapid development of any country ever as I read it.
If the solutions are already invented and for sale and you can see what the opium wars looked like…yeah, they better be as fast as possible.
Hai gai jin.
