The reports of attacks on commercial ships came after the US said it "eliminated" 16 Iranian mine-layers in the area. Elsewhere, two drones were downed near Dubai airport.
Despite the propaganda from the West, Iran is keeping the Straits closed indefinitely (except for their allies). This was signposted by Iran to try to deter the Zionist neocon warmongers but clearly they didn’t care or take it seriously. Now we will all pay for Netanyahu’s insane war with higher energy and food prices.
US Republicans had great incentives to do this, despite claiming to be pro-business. They’re in the pockets of big oil, for one, and American oil producers are going to make big bank on the increased rates for crude oil barrels.
And that’s on top of the whole “awlays doing what Israel says” factor.

Let’s not minimize the US Republicans culpability here. They bear just as much responsibility for all of this.
