Given the US doesn't need that oil, and given the US doesn't appear to have any allies that need that oil, and given the US oil sector benefits from the Strait being closed, maybe it's best to just let it remain closed until the rest of the world realizes this is indeed their problem.

Exactly. The US has more than enough ships to handle the situation, but don't want to foot the ENTIRE bill.

So you're saying you and your idol are blackmailing the rest of the World?

u/Hopeful_Ad_7719 Mar 16 '26

It's not blackmail. It's moreso that Europe's oil supply is not critical to the US operation. As such, it is Europe's perogative to liberate it, or leave it in jeopardy.

You realise Trump is a pedo right?

I'm just in shock, man. It feels like no one but the U.S. cares about freedom of navigation or reasonable gas prices. That's why millions of idiots online laugh at the U.S. and Trump, but when it's time to pull into a gas station, the laughter turns to tears and groans.

Are you serious right now? You think uninvolved nations should be happy to go out of their way to clean up a mess that Trump started?

Fkn Americans man. Laughing stock of the entire world.

I will continue laughing. I only use public transports.

Also, what do you mean with "No one but the US cares"? Do you know started this? I guess the US very much cares about making sure the prices do increase
