The US Has Finally Resorted To State Backed Piracy On The High Seas by DomPerignon(op): 11:22am On Apr 14
I made this prediction here several years back that the US and UK will transform their navies and military from being protectors of international shipping to full fledged piracy operations in the near future.

That future is here with Trump's blockade of Venezuela and Cuba and now with the entrance to the Straits of Hormuz.

Trump, who has been calling for Iran to lift its own blockade of the straits is now the one enforcing the blockade.

Now why is this? Because Iran has deftly made it clear that only vessels that pay in Yuan and crypto will be allowed through the straits and that any and all vessels must also pay a toll tax of $2mill.

Trump is mad because Iran is actually dismantling the Petro Dollar with this move and forcing GCC countries to ditch sale of their oil and gas from the USD for Chinese Yuan.

What we are witnessing is total chaos in Trump's beleaguered WH as they try to counter Iran's every move in destroying the US global hegemon.

The Chinese on the other hand were very aware of this scenario and that is why their Silk Road initiative rested on land routes and not the soon to be lawless high seas which the British and Americans will be the major international bandits all because they are seeing their undeserved middle man role snatched away from them.

The Silk Road is designed to counter current American and British lawlessness and that's why it is passing through land routes . The Chinese are building roads, bridges and rail lines to provide a more efficient transport system. I also envisage the Chinese building more gas and oil pipelines connecting Iran to China via Pakistan, Nepal and Tibet into China.

As Trumpism takes hold of US trade policy going forward, the US will be forced to retreat to the Western Hemisphere because I don't see how the US actively participating in brigandry and piracy on the High seas will endear them to the global south who will rightly see the US as a meddlesome interloper.

The US will shrink in its influence and power and will limit itself to the western hemisphere but for how long can the US which has been spoilt rotten to parasitize on the entire planet since WW2 ended settle for just the Americas? The exploitation by the Jewish banksters will be doubled to make for losing the global market and that is when the people of the Americas will rise up to chase the American capitalists and their cronies from their land.

Trump has destroyed US and made people more resistant to their hegemonic tendencies.
