Captain Tim Hawkins, spokesperson for US Central Command, has told Al Jazeera that its blockade of the Strait of Hormuz is ‘highly effective’, adding that Iran does not control the waterway and that 900 million barrels of oil have passed through the strait since May.

900 million barrels since May is a massive number to keep moving through one choke point. Seems like everyone's betting on that single strait being more fragile than they admit.

Pants on fire……..

Then why are prices exploding? Why are ships hiding? Because his words are for the voters, not the facts. The Pentagon calls it control. The market calls it chaos. And the truth is somewhere in the dark, with the tankers that don't show up on radar

Nighttime ship-to-ship oil transfers—reminiscent of pirate tactics—do nothing to help global consumers, and the world economy remains held hostage by a war Trump himself instigated.
