Iran’s parliament has voted to close the Strait of Hormuz, the vital shipping channel through which around 20% of the world’s daily oil flows.

The move, which could block $1 billion in oil shipments per day, is likely to send oil prices soaring.

It will come into effect pending a final decision by Iran’s Supreme Council.

If anything good comes out of President Trump's mistake, it will be the end of the American people's support of Israel.

"If anything good comes out of President Trump's mistake, it will be the end of the American people's support of Israel."

 

I think you've got some things confused here! ie "Trumps mistake " & " it will be the end of the American people's support of Israel." How can you in all conscience right such a terrible thing when Israel is fighting for us all and need our support; all our support.

You seem very jaundiced. If the script was so pre-written then why didn't you predict it last month or even two weeks  ago? Blah blah LOL

They don't have to actually close the straits, they just need to one tanker with a drone or missile and shipping insurance will become prohibitively expensive.   

 

Even cheaper, drive a sea mine on a pickup truck to the beach, let it into the water and go with the current. Repeat a thousand times.

 

This is really low-tech asymmetric warfare, and extremely effective -- you do not even need a ship to hit one of those mines, only the insurance premiums going through the roof!

 

This is a kind of warfare you can do nothing against with jets in the air or a aircraft carrier around, this needs boots on the ground to control. Welcome Americans to your next Afghanistan (or something even more costly)... you seemingly voted for it.

My Dear Mazzini,

The First World War must be brought about in order to permit the Illuminati to overthrow the power of the Tsars in Russia and to make that country a fortress of atheistic communism. The divergences caused by the agents of the Illuminati between the British and Germanic Empires will be used to foment this war. At the conclusion of the war, communism will be built and used in order to destroy the other governments and in order to weaken the religions.

The Second World War must be fomented by taking advantage of the differences between the fascists and the political Zionists. This war must be brought about so that Nazism is destroyed and that the political Zionism be strong enough to institute a sovereign state of Israel in Palestine. During the Second World War, international communism must become strong enough to balance Christendom, which will be restrained and held in check until the time when we shall need it for the final social cataclysm.

The Third World War must be fomented by taking advantage of the differences caused by the agents of the Illuminati between the political Zionists and the leaders of the Islamic world. The war must be conducted in such a way that Islam and political Zionism mutually destroy each other. Meanwhile, the other nations, once more divided on this issue, will be constrained to fight to the point of complete physical, moral, spiritual, and economic exhaustion.

We shall unleash the Nihilists and the Atheists, and we shall provoke a formidable social cataclysm that will demonstrate to all nations the effect of absolute atheism, origin of savagery and of the most bloody turmoil. Then everywhere, the citizens, obliged to defend themselves against the world minority of revolutionaries, will exterminate those destroyers of civilization, and the multitudes, disillusioned with Christianity, whose deistic spirits will from that moment be without direction and leadership, anxious for an ideal, but without knowing where to render its adoration, will receive the true light through the universal manifestation of the pure doctrine of Lucifer, brought finally out into public view.

This manifestation will result from the general reactionary movement which will follow the destruction of Christianity and atheism, both conquered and exterminated at the same time.

Yours truly,
Albert Pike
