Show Notes

Tensions escalate in the Persian Gulf as the U.S., Israel, and Iran engage in a conflict, disrupting oil markets. Attacks on tankers and cargo ships have blocked the Strait of Hormuz, a crucial oil shipping route. President Trump hints at U.S. Navy escorts for tankers, while experts outline a two-phase plan to secure the area. The narrow strait remains a prime target for Iranian attacks, with no confirmed mines but high risks due to direct strikes on ships. This situation echoes the Iran-Iraq War, with potential coalition involvement to reopen the route.
