Why don't trump just work with Iran to split the tolls? That will bring in billions for america each year. I thought he wuz a smart businessman?
>>62107247Why would he need to work with Iran? He can close the strait at any time, by ordering the US Navy to mine the straits.
>>62107308>weaken your allies for jewish interests>what could possibly go wrong
>>62107396>Iran only lets West Taiwanese tankers through>US interdicts West Taiwanese tankers>concern trolls cry nooo you can't do this to your best allyWest Taiwan isn't our ally, Chang.
>>62107422Didnt know, I just was pissed at jews. Thanks.
>>62107422>>62107434Will still cause inflation when Changs cant produce shit for US markets.
>>62107247>destroy the country first>ask for peace afteris he retarded?
>>62107247Iran would never agree to it lol. They're entire leverage is now control of the strait, if they gave half of that to the US, who could then easily use it to gain full control or steal it from them, it defeats the whole point.
>>62107438Oh no so you're saying US companies will have to find another country to make their stuff, and Chyna's economy gets totally wrecked? That's pretty awesome when you think about it.
>>62107450>They're entire leverage is now control of the straitThey don't control the strait though. They can shut down traffic by themselves, but they can't open it without US cooperation.
>>62107308>>62107422>>62107481>>62107486>Muh China is relevant to the conversation on Iran's opposition to Israeli hegemony of the entire Middle-East
>>62107247>Why don't trump just work with Iran to split the tolls?Because the US can make a lot more money supplying the world with oil than it can charging tolls through Hormuz. In addition to very humorously nuking china's economy, first from denying them Venezuelan oil, now by denying them Iranian oil. Picture very much related - that's the current map of supertanker traffic.
>>62107511>China is relevant to the conversation Yes. It's the main game. Israel is a useful tool that the US is using to help take down one of China's proxies in the region. That it helps them as well is cool and all, but ultimately incidental to US interests, because the US doesn't really need middle east oil anymore and hasn't in decades.
>>62107481Agreed.
>>62107438Thanks to sanctions, there is more than enough Russian oil to power China. Strangling the strait only serves to destroy europe.
>>62107538If they didn't care about the strait being opened, why should the US?
4D chess enthusiast MIGA tards might have a point with the whole Venezuela to Iran perturbing Chyna strategy but I don’t think it works long term. Unless they can completely neutralize Chinese hard power its joever. Trump mentioned 50% tariffs specifically for China again today. Goodbye rare earths so goodbye interceptors and F35’s.
>>62108360>Chinese hard powerMay we see it?
