It’s calculated, and actually quite brilliant imho.
The gulf states are going to make their own deal with Iran sooner or later to get their oil to the global markets.

Dude, Oman has a nipple of a peninsula in the Strait. They aren’t worth mentioning.
But I guess if that is your means to deflect, then you really aren’t looking for a legit conversation.

You must not realize that the southern portion of that “nipple” is past the strait. They don’t need to transit it.
Get back to me when Kuwait, Iraq, and the Saudi’s become Allie’s with Iran.

Look at what he’s doing - wrestled Panama Canal away from China - Freed Venezuela from Maduro and now have control of 2/3rd of their oil reserves.. not to mention their other critical minerals, fertilizer and gold - created Pax Sillica to create a critical mineral alliance - we basically control Iraq’s oil and now control all oil coming out of the strait of Hormuz - Greenland is all about the resources they have and China/Russia pathway - used tariffs to force pharma to rebuild in America as a lesson from COVID - used tariffs to push domestic production in semiconductors, steel, aluminum, autos, shipbuilding and other critical minerals - and beyond this has used his influence to flip almost every government in central and s America to conservative leaning There’s some tradeoffs to all of this, but at minimum going into the future we won’t have countries that hold leverage over us.. rather we will hold leverage on others.
