I'm confused. We're responding to the Strait of #Hormuz being blocked with... a blockade????
@BruceMirken There is some logic to it, because the Iranians need the strait to export their crude oil as well.
@BruceMirken I guess...?
@useravoiding It's also a war crime because it targets Iran's civilian economy, not Its military -- not that Trump cares about such things. But it's already added $8 a barrel to the price of oil, meaning gas and diesel -- and, pretty soon, nearly everything -- will be more expensive.
@BruceMirken True. But that doesn't stop the orange raper. He's probably getting rich from the high oil prices, because it seems it's the only thing he really cares about.
@useravoiding True. Moral or ethical considerations never enter his dark and shriveled soul.
