Loolz!! That “Trump fart” line is exactly the level of argument I expected once logic runs out.
But let’s stay on facts, not vibes.

If you believe Iran’s behaviour in the Strait was just peaceful “status quo,” then you’re basically asking everyone else to ignore seizures, threats, and repeated military posturing just because it didn’t inconvenience your narrative.

And no, nobody is saying “Trump can do no wrong.” That’s just a lazy strawman when you can’t actually challenge the point being made.
You don’t have to like US policy, but calling every counter-move “thoughtless” while pretending Iran was harmless before it all started isn’t analysis. It’s bias with attitude. Not that I expected better from a "moderate Muslim". Smh
I am not Muslim. I am not even religious at all and I despise Abrahamic religions. All of them. Except whatever bit of them advocates love and brotherhood. Stop making assumptions.

Secondly I said the US blockage was a good tactical move in the circumstances. I am just pointing out that the entire circumstance is self inflicted to start with.

Of course you will not even avert your mind to the fact that this attack was launched in the middle of negotiations and it was the second time in less than a year that the US is doing that in the middle of negotiations.

Far be it from you to see that what the US is now trying to achieve is something they already had with the JCPOA which Trump tore up.

And oh no, it would be beyond you for us to delve into history and see what the US has done in Iran since the fifties before the Shah.

SUPPORTER OF "MADNESS".

SUPPORTER OF ILLEGAL, CRIMINAL, BARBARIC, UNPROVOKED ATTACKS ON OTHER NATIONS.

TRUMP'S BLOCKADE OF THE STRAIT IS BLOCKING FERTILISERS DESTINED FOR NIGERIA AND THE REST OF THE WORLD.

BY CHEERING HIS ACTIONS, YOU ARE CHEERING YOUR OWN DEMISE IN 3 MONTHS TIME WHEN ALL THIS "MADNESS" YOU'RE CHEERING STARTS TO HIT HOME IN THE FORM OF FAMINE, STARVATION AND MALNUTRITION, WHICH THE UN IS NOW PREDICTING.

THE BLOOD OF THE THOUSANDS OF INNOCENT IRANIAN CIVILIANS SLAUGHTERED BY TRUMP AND HIS GANG OF MASS MURDERERS, INCLUDING THOSE 200 SCHOOLGIRLS AGED 7 YRS ON AVERAGE, lS ON YOUR HEADS.

YOU WILL ALL CONTINUE TO SUFFER THE ECONOMIC PAIN THAT WILL COME FROM YOUR SUPPORT OF GENOCIDE, INCLUDING THE GENOCIDE IN GAZA, WHICH YOU SUPPORT.

WHEN YOU SUPPORT THE SLAUGHTER OF INNOCENT CIVILIANS, KARMA WILL SEND THEIR MISFORTUNE BACK TO YOU, ONE WAY OR ANOTHER.
How about the blood of thousands of innocent iranian people killed by the Iranian regime, whose hands will their blood be on? Your hand and that of the regime right?

When Iran closed the strait and we were all suffering fuel increase what did you say hypocrite?

God bless Trump and Benjamin for their good work.

This game, two can play.

YOU DON'T GIVE A HOT DAMN ABOUT ANY IRANIAN, SO SHUT UP THERE.

IF TRUMP GENOCIDES THE ENTIRE IRANIAN POPULATION, YOU WILL CHEER.

SO SHUT UP AND STOP PRETENDING TO CARE ABOUT THEM JUST BECAUSE YOU WANT TO KILL THEM.

THAT'S EVIL.

PRETENDING TO CARE, SO YOU CAN KILL.

EVIL PEOPLE THAT THINK GOD CAN'T SEE YOUR DUPLICITY.

''OH.......THE EVIL IRGC KILLED PROTESTERS. SO THE SAINTLY TRUMP IS SO ANGERED BY THAT, THAT HE WANTS TO GENOCIDE THE ENTIRE IRANIAN POPULATION''.

THE VERY LOGIC OF SATAN HIMSELF.

You’re not actually arguing the Strait anymore? You’re stacking grievances from every era and calling it one explanation. Is that it?

Ok, let’s separate it properly.
Yes, US–Iran history is messy. No one is denying that. But using the 1950s, the Shah, JCPOA, and present negotiations as one continuous moral blame chain doesn’t answer the current question. It just avoids it.

On JCPOA: it was a deal, not a permanent peace certificate. Even under it, there were disputes over compliance, regional activity, and verification limits. So saying “they already had it” is not accurate. They had a conditional, contested arrangement, not a final settlement.

On negotiations being “interrupted”...swell point, but you’re acting like this is unique to the US. In reality, international negotiations are constantly shaped by pressure, positioning, and signalling from all sides.

That’s how leverage works. It has never been not a polite classroom discussion lol!

And most importantly, none of that changes the fact that the Strait issue is about control and deterrence in real time, not historical blame scoring.

If your entire argument only works by zooming out so far that present actions become invisible, then you’re not critiquing policy, then you’re just dissolving responsibility into history until nothing can be analysed anymore.

THE ARABS ARE ON THEIR LAND.

THE ISRAELIS ARE WHITE INVADERS FROM EUROPE WHO HAVE NO BUSINESS BEING IN THE MIDDLE EAST, AND FALSELY AND BLASPHEMOUSLY CALLING THEMSELVES ''GOD'S CHOSEN''.

SAME AS THE AMERICANS.

IMPERIALIST INVADERS AND THIEVES WHO NEED TO GET OUT FROM THERE AND GO BACK TO WHERE THEY CAME FROM.

Thank you, but my argument was simple and brief, namely that whatever is being gained in terms of the opening of the strait would not be something that didnt exist or wasn't already the case before the war was launched.

Simple. And indubitable. Iron cast.

As to the history, I only touched on it because it was becoming clear the school of thought you come from. That very one sided school which only sees things from a certain Western oriented lens only.

I don't remember Israel belonging to Arabs. Is Jesus an Arab?
Arabs were also invaders in that land you're claiming belongs to them, so why complain when another invader gets control of it? It's a case of a theif stealing from another thief.
Again, the terrorists disturbing the peace of the country are fighting for what?

“Simple” and “iron cast” don’t make it true.
Your whole argument assumes an open strait under threats and coercion is the same as an open strait under deterrence and reduced leverage. And I'm saying it isn’t.

So yes, ships passing before and after can look the same on the surface, while the strategic reality is completely different.

And the “Western lens” line is tired. Some of us can criticise both the US and Iran. But in the case of Iran, some people suddenly become blind to intimidation, hostage politics, and years of using the strait as leverage. That selective outrage is the real bias.

Iran never saw this coming.

The rest of the world seems to have moved on finding alternative means to get oil from different route but as for Iran, it's total shut down by the US.

The Iranian economy is on total lockdown. No import no export. Even their production is shut down. The are learning the hard way.

Craze pass craze.

In their entire existence Iran will never think of holding the global community hostage again by blocking the strait of Hormuz. Trump just showed the world the antidote to their madness.
