40 countries meeting to discuss closure of Strait, should be criticising America NOT Iran!
The Strait of Hormuz crisis isn’t happening in a vacuum. As 40 countries scramble to keep global oil flowing, the real question is this: why are they blaming Iran for a crisis triggered by American and Israeli aggression?
Over 40 countries meet to discuss ways to reopen the Strait of Hormuz
Foreign ministers from more than 40 countries meet virtually to discuss President Trump’s request for help in ensuring shipping in the Strait of Hormuz.
The UK’s foreign minister blamed Iran for holding the “world’s economy hostage” which was “hitting households and businesses in every corner of the world”.
Let’s stop pretending this started with Iran
The issue isn’t Iran!
The issue is America and Israel launched an illegal war against Iran on the false pretence of a nuclear threat and murdered their Holy leader and his advisers!
Hey – I’m no fan of the Iranian theocracy!
I’m an atheist Marxist and believe any theocracy is a medical throwback, and when your enemy is little girls not wearing headscarves, how much legitimacy do you really have?
But the only reason we are facing a theocracy in the first place, is because America caused a coup in 1953 believing they could play Allah in Iran, just like they believe they can now!
It is America and Israel’s aggression that needs to be curtailed if we want the Strait opened again!
It makes absolute sense to pursue the campaign they are, they are responding proportionately to the violence they are being inflicted with and will continue to do so.
So who should actually be held accountable?
The 40 countries need to be demanding the aggressors of this madness are called to heel, not attacking the response of the country reacting!
The US now controls supplies from the worlds biggest oil reserve Venezuala.
US are currently the largest oil producer thanks to fracking. Break even for fracking is around $65. Before the war US producers were not making good profits.
Before the Ukraine war the US gas producers could not export their gas to Europe because it is three times the price of russian gas.
The US plan to shut Germany’s Nordstream gas pipeline and choke off oil exports from The Gulf States and Iran has been realised. All wars are resource wars.
That gormless orange prick tells the rest the world to fix what he has totally f’d up. He makes it sound likes he’s not the one responsible for the Strait being shut. He and that rat bastard Netanyahu.
Who tolls the Ferryman ?
We all do!
They’d be stupid to not cut a diplomatic strategic deal, stupider if they get involved in a conflict, even stupider if they take the lead of an Orange toddler and let him take credit for dumping on them with “I told you so cowards!”
I have hope world leaders have a level headed resolution on this, it’s a fools hope, but hope.
It never fails to amaze me how many powerful people can get it so wrong! How the UK Foreign Minister can seriously blame Iran is ridiculous. What planet is he on? Iran were NOT making nuclear bombs; Iran is NOT a nice country; BUT they didn’t start this illegal, egotistical war; Israel and the USA DID! How is this so glaringly obvious to so many while some WON’T admit it? Trump and Netanyahu made the mess, let them find the solution. The 40 countries s/be putting pressure on the perpetrators!!!
