Trying to block Kuwait, Iraq, Saudi, UAE from exporting oil inorder to spark increase in oil price to spite the west for supporting Israel. This will only further embolden the affected middle east states to openly support Israel

malali:
You dont understand the oil market.
The contracts are done in futures at today's prices.
Assuming we wake up tomorrow and oil is $150/ barrel
Every country automatically starts selling October, November,December shipment order at that price
Kuwait, Iraq, Saudi, UAE will be excited if this is the case.
You owe me school fees for the education.

Ruke1990:
View that map and ask yourself how cargo ships from those countries will come out. Contracts can be cancelled in the event that delivery is impossible

CodeTemplarr:
And why is Iran closing the strait of Hormuz here?
No reason or excuses?

Why do they have to give a reason or excuse.
USA invited them for diplomatic talks, which was ongoing Israel sneaked and killed the same negotiators at the talks
Then EU invited them for talks, while they were at that talk, the USA bombed them as well...

What reason do you want ? Or do you want them to fill a request form and submit to you ?

They want to shut it down, let all those government feel it.

This is where the real war starts, America has been getting cheap energy(crude oil and LNG) for awhile

The likes of Russia, Iran,Iraq,Saudi,Nigeria etc have been dealing with low revenue to finance their budgets.

Iran is seeking advice from Russia. The only way they could stick it to the USA is to shut the strait of Hormuz down.

2 Major things will happen.
1-Oil prices will skyrocket, guesstimated to reach $130-$150 a barrel. Russia,Iraq,Saudi,Qatar etc will experience a windfall. The money will boost all of the middle east economy despite the bombs.

2nd- Americans will start blaming trump for starting a war once gas (petrol) prices go up. American economy relies on cheap petrol prices. If petrol is too expensive some jobs are not even worth going to, especially minimum wage jobs, inflation would surge, The federal reserve would have to hike rates, Trump economy might falter and have to start paying stimulus.Some crazy democrats will start the motion to impeach trump,if life gets too hard on Americans.

Russia will protect Iran with all their might, because that's the only way people will buy more of Russian Oil, if there is scarcity. Russia's Oil and Nigerian are the biggest producers that do not traffic through the strait of Hormuz.

PureFace1:
All these your permutations can only work if Iran is capable enough to close the strait for long, Donald Trump and Israel will hit them so hard.Israel will give them hell in Iran and US Navy will pummel them in the sea.

Raf4:
No long talk. If dem born Iran well make them shut or block anywhere.
Iran that doesn't have any formidable Navy or Airforce wants to block straight of hormus. They'll be roasted into ashes

Niger delta (Tompolo) they dont have navy or airforce......Nigerian government cannot try them. If they shut down oil flow in Nigeria.
Iran has 500k active soldiers.........
USA only has 50k in the whole of the middle east........

Have you heard of Guerilla Warfare....You want to go into someone's house to fight him when he knows where the NEPA switch is

He will deceive you to come inside, then switch off the NEPA switch and teach you a lesson.

LordBiden:
Even US congress did not approve the attack on Iran nuclear facilities.

So its a good case for impeachment.

huptin:
America is the largest producer of oil today! America gains more from higher oil prices Do your research well before jumping to conclusions.

secondly Iran closing the strait is a direct asphysiation of their own economy, the economy will collapse very fast, that is suicidal.

Produces 12.5 million barrels a day

Consumes 19 million barrels a day

Where do you think the extra approx 7 million barrels comes from ??

From your research institute ?

Its a choke-point. If they bomb 2 Ship VLCC at that point. It will stop the Whole traffic. For it to be removed. It has to be done physically on the ground. Unless Israel and USA are ready to take over the Iran. They cannot come down and dislodge it. Its Guerilla warfare.

Its like going to Niger Delta and fighting those militants in the Creek from the sky with fighter jets.lolololol
You see what happened in Niger Delta. The government had to go and beg and give amnesty to the militants.
Its the same scenario.
Dozens of ships pass that choke point daily. IRGC has close to 500 thousand troops of soldiers. This is 10times what USA has in the whole middle east.
Once you start bombing, the ship cant pass. Once you stop the IRGC will surface.

Iran’s Supreme National Security Council must make the final decision on whether to close the Strait of Hormuz, Iran’s Press TV said on Sunday, after parliament reportedly approved the measure.



The decision to close the strait, through which around 20 percent of global oil and gas demand flows, is not yet final. But lawmaker and Revolutionary Guards Commander Esmail Kosari told the Young Journalist Club on Sunday that doing so is on the agenda and “will be done whenever necessary.”

If you like type in red till tomorrow, the only options Iran has in this war are-

1. Indiscriminate throwing of missiles till they finish their stockpiles
2. Activate their terror cells in US bases and perhaps in US or Britain

And both will only lead to more misery for them. A totally defenseless country where a foreign army has been operating unchallenged for 10 days has little options, if it goes beyond his boundaries, it will be totally annihilated.

Now that you people have realized that Iran has no true allies, not Russia, not China, not Pakistan not even a single arab nation, you are dreaming of a delusional strait that doesn't even belong to Iran, which military power will they use to close it? when they can not even defend their own air space.
