Iran

[ButchPlz]

It is closed because insurers have informed their clients they will not cover losses for anyone transiting the straight. Not because Iran has the capability to actually close the straight.

Is royal azzhole your normal look?

So we circle back to the point that they're closing it for no reason?

No, the reason is because there is a risk that the insurers will not accept.

Caused by what?

Look clown.

The what is threats by Iran. But again I say Iran does not have the resources or ability to close the straight. If the insurers agreed to cover losses the straight would be open.

But clearly someone that has money at stake believes the threats are real enough to say "no" to cover losses. Just because you are pretending there is no root cause to this, people way smarter and with way better information than Backwoods Bob are making decisions that have actual impact and tell a different story.

You can call me a clown all you want. I'll happily put on my face makeup right next to you and sleep just fine knowing that at least my brain has a few wrinkles in it.

I never even implied that there is no root cause. You're just trying to pick a fight you don't have a chance at winning by lying which is typical for you.

Lying about what?

All posts with blatant lies.

Nice to know they're closing it for no reason.

Definitely more insightful than a smoothbrain claim that an insurance company is out there keeping a strait closed for absolutely no reason whatsoever.

Yep, and it just made it twice as hard to make the Iranians agree to anything.

They never were. Trump has been played.

So...which part? The part where I called you a smoothbrain (objectively accurate). The part where you outright said Iran wasn't closing the strait, insurance companies were (gross and misleading simplification that sounds more like a reddit headline than anything factual) and I called you out on it? The part where I dared to say someone may have more information than you? None of those are "lies". I suggest researching what that word actually means.

Arrogant, stupid, and senile are a bad look, but I guess look at our president to see the state of the country's population. I guess once you're done running a business where you can't figure out how to source parts and hire people, I guess you can hop over with me into clown makeup sales.

Maybe, but one thing for sure: "You never give the enemy public leverage"
