Well, as it was Trump who caused this issue, I could say why did he cause it in the first place or why isn't he opening them up now instead of moaning at Europe to help him?? I can't speak for the French, but that's why the British government opened it's bases for American (do keep up!!) also.... From last week... https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/po...41629.html Quote:British military experts sent to US to plan reopening of Strait of Hormuz "Denial is a common tactic that substitutes deliberate ignorance for thoughtful planning."

If you purposefully shit your own pants when others have repeatedly told you not to for 50 years then don't expect said others to clean up the mess for you; especially when desecrating the memory of thousands of dead soldiers and lying about defensive treaties in the process. The US and Israel only have themselves to blame for ignoring all intel and geo-politics to launch strikes against all advice of the allies they're trying to scapegoat for their own clusterfuck.

So no big deal Hormuz is closed right now? Or it is a big deal? I’m getting mixed signals.
