I heard it’s US (or was it’s ownership disputed?) Tanker…isn’t that kinda escalates the entire ME situation? Or it’s nothing?
Here we go
We’ve had one maritime choke point being pinched, but what about a second choke point?
Iran is playing with fire, again.
Doesn’t count. They didn’t fly the Jolly Rodger.

It’s really crazy to watch Pax Americana dying with such a whimper.
So, some shitty company had helped Iran sell its oil.
The US had fined the company, and Iran a year later stole the ship of that company because, ehm… revenge for getting caught while working for Iran?
I must be missing something or just not Iranian enough to understand.
Big brain move, Iran. Arming the houthis with your weapons and now directly participating in the fuckery.
Iran once again pushes the boundaries since it sees that the US does nothing against their aggression. This time not through proxies but themselves.
Biden administration is looking very weak at the geopolitical stage right now.
Very reminiscent of WW2 Nazi Germany where the intervention came much too late..

Putin desperate to try to get the US to bite somewhere else around the globe to distract the world from Ukraine.
Do they not understand what the US will fight people for?
Iran is just begging for a war

US will hit hard kick to Iran for this act.
I guess the Houthis aren’t bringing in enough cash for Iran so they’ve decided to stop outsourcing.
Even if nothing happens and tanker is handed back this uncertainty will cause rising oil prices.
Fucking with Americas boats AND oil?! Historically those things were the long way to raise the average temperature in your country by a few thousand degrees.
I wonder if Iran realized we have enough missiles to glass the entire region and have enough time to cook breakfast. Putin vastly under-rating US military once again
Iran wants another drone strike on its generals?
What ever happened to the protests in Iran? I was confident there was going to be some sort of revolution.
Maybe this is Irans way of keeping onto power alla Putin.
Looks like Operation Praying Mantis 2 could be coming with this news.
This seems like a signifcant escalation?
Between this, the Israel/Palestine conflict, the Russian invasion of Ukraine and the possibility of China invading Taiwan, a world war of sorts in the future wouldn’t be all that surprising. Perhaps what differentiates the Houthi’s and Iran’s actions is that it seems to attract universal condemnation, including from China and Russia.
The Iranians are desperate for the US to attack them. With support for their brutal regime flagging amongst young people I’m sure they’d appreciate a common enemy to boost support.
