Week 11 of the Strait of Hormuz blockage

 #Iran #StraitOfHormuz #China #India #Japan #Pakistan


Possible international force to help open strait.
watch oil supply, demand, refining capacity
lots of demand for Panama canal, but concern about low water in the summer
Iran making deals with individual countries.
US trying to block movement of Iranian oil


And a couple more videos, just because


More battleships? Yes? No?
The Trump Class battleship: the USS Defiant
Check out the NetAssessment podcast
RantWoman means to watch later


And Secretary Hegseth goes to Congress
"Future energy dominance by the US?"
National security advisor should be coordinating but Rubio has too much to do.
maintain pressure on Iran...regime change
Sen. Coons question about tactical vs strategic victory
"If the US controls the Strait of Hormuz how do we reopen the strait to commercial shipping?
Not a military solution to reopen the Strait but must do a political solution 
Senator Murphy: "lots of evidence from military history that countries under attack will put up with a lot of misery to preserve national pride"
Who breaks first the US or Iran?
US military effort would be extremely costly.
Every day the strait is closed will take a week to recover.
