Because Iran shut it down. Wasn't before.
War. Casus belli
Exactly. So, US just carved a niche that didn't exist. And now orange wants arabs to pay 20%... keeping pace, right?
No it didn't. It saw it as a tool of war.
So, protecting your own territory is a tool of war? Keeping and aggressor from the other side of the world is critical to Iranian defense.
The US will be a party to whatever it wants. You can complain, protest, and object all you want, see if it changes anything.
That is funny. The MoU is between the aggressor and the aggrieved party. Which is why it had the billions set aside for reconstruction... thaf was not reconstruction of anything in US.
Maybe US should have signed it with someone call it whatever...
And listen, I have no reason to complain, protest and object. It is what it is at the end of the day.
The MoU is null and void... So, another change...
Precedence? The US has been the strongest military presence in the Middle East for the better part of the century with most Arab states as its willing protectorates.
Why start a protection racket and ask 20%... I mean...
Yes... Brits did have colonies here and they seemingly transitioned. US established it's neocolonial presence largely in last 30 years.
Iran wants the control of the Strait to save the Arabs from American racketeering? The racket which only works if there's Iranian attacks to protect them from.
Well, that would by extension... right? Iran wouldn't want the US presence for it's own sake. The racketeering is an extension of American presence... hmm and before the US invasion how was that... don't just make stuff up as you go along.
You can't make up stuff on the fly and expect others to take it at face value. None of this made any sense.
If it doesn't then move along... you are defending the undefendalble... US doesn't need your counsel to do what it does... it will... inspite of you...
