      Iran has already done deals to allow certain ships to go through, as in the case of the 2 Indian ships.

      it is, it’s the central reason why the united states bombed them, venezuela, libya and sanctioned russia; there’s no way the us empire would allow this to happen.

            Which wouldn’t make much difference, even if it did end up happening. They don’t have the capacity to wage war all that much harder than what the US is already doing. In part due to giving so much to Ukraine’s futile war with Russia and things like Germany gutting its industrial potential in subservience to the US.

              agreed, but this move is indicative that more and more of the western world will join in and that will turn it into ww3; this time however, the fascists already have the nukes.

                I mentioned this thread in the newsmega and you or @MaeBorowski@lemmy.ml may be interested in the resulting discussion that digs into it a bit deeper. It was brought up again in another great comment here too.
