This war has revealed that Iran has the ability to place a toll gate at the Strait of Hormuz and charge for passage. It will be interesting to see how this plays out. It strikes me as unlikely that Iran's neighbors and the rest of the world will acquiesce in such an arrangement.

Btw WTI is at $112 per barrel.

Fighting down a hostile aircraft in your own airspace is an escalation? I’m not “siding” with Iran here, but the idea that this is escalation when we’re actively bombing their actual country is just silly talk.

Happy war crime day people. How many civilians are gonna die today? Sure hope our troops dont get hurt while murdering people. Its funny though some of you think it was wrong to shoot Kirk who wanted toturn the US into a Christian theocracy but dropping bombs on civilians is perfectly fine.

When you think about it, isn’t death the ultimate liberation?
