Iran can disrupt the markets by hitting ships in the strait but Trump can disrupt the markets by just talking.

Mr Trump might have sought independent legal advice just in the nick of time.

Deliberately striking civilian infrastructure (power plants, water systems, hospitals, schools) is generally prohibited under international humanitarian law unless that infrastructure has become a military objective and the attack meets strict rules of distinction, proportionality, and precautions.

None of that was present here.

he is collapsing the financial markets
I don't think we're looking at the same charts. The S&P, NQ, YM went up more in one year than it did in the previous two. It was in dire need of a correction and a correction doesn't constitute a market crash. You have no idea what you're doing. You're going to lose everything.

Maybe he got super upset at the prospect of wind power projects getting resurrected!

Whatever the case, I'll be happy as long as WW3 is nipped in the bud and Israel is defanged once and for all!

TACO is manipulating the market!! Congress did not approve 200 billion for war expenses, the stock market is flying down, the price of gasoline is flying up, the US military is losing in the Gulf, casualties are increasing and planes and ships are being destroyed, Hormuz is closed to US ships. The result is we have an agreement even though there is no agreement and Iran is not negotiating!!! Trump's friends are losing billions due to the collapse of stocks and crypto currency, so the monkey is trying to save the situation!! Trump is a criminal and will end up in Guantanamo alone with other minions Hegset Rubio Vance everyone will be arrested!!
