Do any of us know 100% of what's going on? Who knows if any of it's true or just another conspiracy that may or may not be correct?

Good. An audit of us being their benefactors wasn’t even needed. Their lack of support spells it out.
Will we cozy up to the ME now?
It would be beneficial to be on good terms with all countries..."cozy up"?...no way.

It turns out that Coleman 4 man tents are not hardened against missiles.

"The assassination of Larijani was made possible thanks to valuable intelligence that Israeli intelligence services received from residents of Tehran over the past 24 hours," an Israeli official told Iran International.
"In recent days, Larijani had behaved arrogantly, appearing frequently in public (including at Quds Day rallies), engaging with both local and international media, and thereby exposing himself to public view, which ultimately led to his identification," the official said.
The Israeli official added that the country's intelligence services continue to receive numerous reports that "precisely guide them to the locations of Basij and IRGC checkpoints, significantly aiding their efforts."

You can see the Basij member fly after impact. That is crazy how accurate they are without hitting the bus driving by or the other vehicles.

What’s going on with the Strait of Hormuz?

Most "conspiracy" theories contain factual elements and this one is no different. Debt is unsustainable, but not just in the West; it's global. There will be widespread defaults and currencies will fail. Some currencies may survive, but they'll need to be backed by commodities to retain trust in their value. Energy, which right now means oil, is the foundation for production of all other commodities.
That means control of oil is paramount for global power. China, Europe, UK, Japan have large economies, but they're oil poor, which means they have to find ways to influence oil markets to their advantage. Either by military strength, manufacturing strength, or tweaking the levers of global finance. Or some combination.
The US has oil and gas, for now, but (my opinion) our supplies are not enough for the long term. Fracking has been described as a Red Queen's Race, meaning you have to drill faster and faster to remain in place. I think that's probably accurate. So we're caught up in the midst of this energy struggle. We do have significant coal reserves, as do Russia, China, and Australia. I think we should be working hard to develop more efficient ways of using coal and start mining ASAP.
Russia, IMO, is the only military superpower with adequate medium term reserves inside their borders. They have options, but also threats. I don't think Putin trusts anyone, and he probably shouldn't.
The details behind the scenes are obscure for us peons, but it doesn't take a genius to understand that Venezuela and Iran are continuations of a long running conflict over oil. A looming debt/currency crisis is intensifying that struggle. The Israel stuff is subterfuge fed to idiots.

Nah. They aren't deserving.

Considering we have multiple bases in multiple ME countries, I'd say that's what we in fact are doing.
