The single metric (military targets) that the administration is presenting as justification for this war is essentially being reconstituted in hours. We're literally playing multi million dollar wack-a-mole per missile. #IranWar #IsrealWar

That chart is what mid-2027 looks like in visual form. Even when the shooting stops, those shipping lanes don't reopen overnight. Mines need clearing. Insurance needs recalculating. Companies like Maersk need to decide their crews are safe. The infrastructure of global trade through that strait was built over decades of confidence. It was destroyed in days. Rebuilding confidence takes longer than rebuilding ports.

Thousands of Christian faithful attended Palm Sunday celebrations at Jerusalem’s sacred Mount of Olives on the first day of Holy Week. Pilgrims were seen waving branches and fronds in the air. The Bible says such items were placed before Jesus’ feet during his entrance into Jerusalem where he was greeted by cheering crowds. Jerusalem’s Church of the Holy Sepulchre also held a service on Sunday. The celebration comes as the Israel-Hamas war rages on in Gaza. The conflict appeared to have little effect on the procession, which was similar in size to last year's.
