“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.
AI polished thoughts...
looks good though.

Your Lord must be Satan.

The Supreme Being does not support genocide and mass murder, so stop committing BLASPHEMY.

And stop trying to reinvent God in your genocidal image.

Okay?

No wonder Trump refused to lift the blockade after the ceasefire. This blockade is even more effective than bombing them. Iran is losing serious money as a result of this blockade.
Losing is even an understatement, the moment dey reach full capacity of storage, dats where d problem comes in, they have to shut down oil wells, as there won't be storage space.

Shutting it down don't just mean dey will cock or cover d well head, dey have to disable it..

Copied Google

"When crude oil storage capacity hits maximum, as seen with Iran in April 2026, producers are forced to shut in (close) wells, which can cause permanent geological damage to oil reservoirs. This leads to severe, long-term revenue loss, as restarting production becomes expensive and difficult, often reducing future capacity by up to 50%".

THIS IS THE REASON THEY ARE WORRIED

Shut up, you pathetic emotional f0001.
Cry as much as you like, nonsense, The goal is for Iran to forgo any idea of nuclear weapon. It is dangerous in the hands of those wicked fanatics, sponsors of terrorist fighting Isreal.

You blackmail yourself with death of children, tell me why on earth, will soldiers and military leaders be close to civilians. If not for terrorist who doesn't value human lives, why use civilians as shield, why launch bombs from hospital and schools.

The death chant by IRGC leaders is enough provocation to start a war. Trump and Benjamin are not your regular leaders, that sit and wait until there is death, before they act.

God bless u brother for the nice reply to dat hypocrite.

He never knew all these were happening wen Iran blocked d strait,, he didn't know d numbers of countries whose citizens suffered from it.

Suddenly, because it's affecting Iran now, he now cares Abt citizens... Yet he didn't even say shit wen same citizens were executed for just protesting ( 30,000 to 40,000) for dat matter.... Hypocrites like him won't die well.

Imagine, Iran will fire missiles indiscriminately into Israel and other Arab nations, hitting civilian target n all.. And yet wen US or Israel wants to retaliate, dey target only military installations...

So dey think they are d once dat have monopoly of indiscriminately firing missiles??

So if US and Israel behave like dem, Iran would have been a wasteland by now, with more dan 30million death toll. He doesn't know dat the US is saving dia resources so dat dey can use it to pay for d war wen everything is over...

Honestly sometimes it takes madness to stop madness. Trump blocking Iranian ports is more effective than throwing bombs on them.
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.
Antidote to a death loving ideology.
In years to come most people will come to realize the role Trump and Bibi played for world peace.

SHUT UP THERE.

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.

I dont pretend that. Remember I said that blocking the strait was a good tactical move. If only they thought of that before starting the war, that would have saved alot of lives, resources and grief around the world.

Now answer the challenge.

I've done that already. I criticised America for escalation and the human cost of war (and I mean innocent civilians only).No country is above criticism. Humans make them up and humans are not perfect.

My point is simply that criticism should be balanced. If you can see US errors, you should also be able to see Iran's threats too and the role they played in creating the same crisis.

Iran didn’t need to start anything. Creating a credible nuclear threat is enough to trigger preemptive action. And we all know Israel has always been their target. They want the entire nation of Israel nuked. Over the years, Israel hadn't experienced peace with Hamas, Hezbollah and then Houthi...all Iran terror proxies.

Why can Israel have nukes and Iran cant? What is the logic behind such double standards?

Before you answer, since I know you will say that Iran threatens Israel, I ask you to build into your answer the fact that Israel (and the US) have been a threat to Iran as well for decades. They actually removed a democratic Iranian Govt in the 50s because that govt wanted control of its own oil.

Furthermore, before you answer also build into your answer the fact that Pakistan has nukes - and has been a hotbed of residence and encampment of terrorists. I neednt remind you of where Bin Laden was captured obviously under state protection.

Yet furthermore, before you answer, I would ask that you build into your answer the following facts -

1. The fact that only the USA has ever used an atomic weapon in history

2. The fact that Iran was part of the NNPT and Israel is NOT.

It’s not about who “deserves” nukes please. It’s more about trust, behaviour, transparency, and regional risk.

Pakistan having nukes doesn’t mean Iran should get them too. One bad example doesn’t justify another. And that goes with Israel. You may call it double standards, but countries judge threats based on actions now. Iran' constant hostile rhetoric and threats are things you can't ignore.
You shouldn't be arguing fairness. Countries usually act based on security risk.
