      – The effective closure of the Strait of Hormuz, through which 20 percent of global oil supply normally flows, has driven tanker traffic down roughly 90 percent, created a net daily supply shortfall of approximately 15 million barrels, and pushed U.S. gasoline prices to their highest level under either of Trump’s terms in office.

      – Proposed fixes including a Strategic Petroleum Reserve release, Russia sanctions relief, and naval tanker escorts are temporary measures that do not address the underlying problem, which is a war with no fixed objective, no coalition, and a partner in Israel whose war aims extend well beyond what Washington has publicly committed to.

      – Iran’s strategy of horizontal escalation, widening the conflict across nine countries rather than fighting to win militarily, mirrors historical playbooks from Vietnam and Kosovo that cost the United States dearly, and every week the war continues without a defined endgame locks more inflation into the global economy through energy, LNG, fertilizer, and food supply chains.

      Over the decades, I’ve become accustomed to seeing the world’s sole ’superpower‘ paying generously in money, weapons and sometimes human lives for the designs of generations of Israeli politicians. Underneath all the platitudes given to NATO, Europe, Japan, South Korea and so on it can even be said that America considers Israel as its ‚greatest ally'(Though it’s debatable as to what this greatest ally has actually given *to* America in recent decades beyond a focal point for the Armageddon myths of American Evangelical Christians).

      But this is the first time I’ve seen the entire world being forced to pay for Israel’s designs. Particularly when there is a strong indication that that these designs blend legitimate geostrategic imperatives with more selfish ulterior motives related to Israeli domestic politics.

      Is this the „Operation Epstein Fury“, meant to distract from Trump’s most enduring domestic scandal, or is it „Operation Bibi’s Freedom“, meant to keep Netanyahu from an inevitable election defeat and incarceration over his enduring corruption scandals that he just can’t seem to get a pardon for?
