Iran is being unreasonable here. Iran blocked Strait of Hormuz itself for weeks and stopped the tankers of other Gulf nations leaving out of strait unless they paid the toll tax while Iranian tankers keep moving in/out of Strait without any restriction during the period.
Iran and US both are stubborn. The region will have serious consequences If Iran acquires nuclear weapons and/or start charging the toll tax which is against the international law as strait of Hromuz is not man's made.
Also, the Canal of Suez was first created by the Achaemenids of Persia, and later was revived and expanded by the French and the Brits. Using your logic, Egypt should allow free passage there too, or give the toll money to Iran, UK and France.
Don't fall into pessimism.
Trump need to get out desperately. This second round will lead to deplete stocks more and most worrying, the oil price Will skyrocket, not to mention eventual looses.
Irán has no bigger enemy than US.
US has to contain China, take a look to Russia and now surrender Irán. This is harder than Hércules seven Jobs.
Irán just need resist. The biggest Iranian weapon it is inflation.
I don't know what kind of drugs can help you think rationally, I think a psychiatrist can answer that better. Also, drugs don't work like magic. But hey, never lose hope. You can make it!hahaha...... what kind of drugs cause this craziest level thinking lol?
The point is that if the legitimacy of your toll system comes from "having built" it, as if it was some sort of investment, then Egypt does not have such legitimacy either. Egypt inherited the Canal of Suez from the Persians, the Brits and the French and we have inherited it from God. I don't see a difference.Do Achaemenids or any tom, dick or harry of Persia, britain or france have an empire in modern day Egypt? Infact if go by your thinking then Persia, britain and france should Pay Egypt for invading it not the otherway around.
What matters is that what happened 1000s of years ago in different civilization and empires and circumstances hold ZERO value in today's world. That is why Israel's claim of 3000 years ago to being relocated at Palestine is invalid to begin with. If people start settling ancient disputes then world will be over as it stands. Then We should nuke Mongolia for what Genghis khan did with Iran, Iraq and half of the world.
It does not matter who built the Suez Canal. The only thing that matter is "who holds the Suez Canal".You're missing the point, my friend. Egypt didn't build it. So, how is it different from the Strait of Hormuz? God created the Strait of Hormuz and now we are collecting toll there.
I never said Iran "owned" the Strait of Hormuz. State the law that says that Iran cannot control the Strait of Hormuz. Most heavy tankers pass through Iranian territorial waters because the depth of the other part of the strait in its narrowest point is not enough for heavy oil tankers and containers. Iran does not own the strait, but it can certainly administer its own territorial waters.
