Both Iran and the US are claiming they’re shutting down the Strait of Hormuz, with Iran blaming the US for “breaches of trust” by imposing a military blockade in Iranian territorial waters, and the US is trying to blame Iran for alleged breaking the tenuous ceasefire.
Thanks Patrick and Nima at Dialogue Works, good to see you both discussing this and the fantastic analysis by Richard Medhurst on what's truly going on regarding energy resources.
Keep up the great work both of you, we need this coverage to get the truth out, thanks.
Terrific analysis as always thank you Patrick and Nima. Events in the Strait of Hormuz are moving fast. I'm trying to keep up with the hokey cokey of open or closed, blocked or not. Or perhaps it should be musical chairs if we add in the shipping vessels trying to transit the Strait of Hormuz, actually Iranian territorial waters.
I don't think Pete Hegseth or President Trump looked too closely at the map, as even a simpleton at geography could have probably established the close proximity of the Straits to the Iranian coast.
I wouldn't hold out much hope for a European leaders intervention to force any changes either.
In the UK Prime Minister Starmer has his hands full with two domestic issues.
The first being his on going claim of not knowing that Peter Mandleson was a close personal friend of Epstein before appointing his British Ambassador to the United States. Even though he did know that Mandleson had been sacked from two previous government positions.
It was Starmer's personal choice, oddly similar to Trump's personal choice of Del boy and Rodney as diplomats to Iran. Two more eminently unsuitable characters.
The second is the upcoming trial at the end of this month, of three Ukrainian rent boys accused of the Arson attack on two separate homes and two cars belonging to the British Prime Minister. Quite why both the front door and the back door of Sir Keir Starmer's homes were covered in flames will have to be closely examined in detail in the court.
No doubt the three rent boys were aggrieved by something related to Sir Keir, the cross examination and verdict will make for interesting reading.
As the Chinese say. May you live in Interesting Times!
Sooner or later the neighbors will really start complaining about the lack of traffic in their neighborhood. All the money spent on their “security alarms” and the security firm doesn’t seem to be paying off.
