Closing the Strait Of Malacca closes the oil supply to China, and cuts off Chinese exports from the world.

All of Asia is oil dependent, and the rising part of the world’s economy is stranded if the US blocks and controls the world’s supply of energy.

The US is the only part of the world that is energy independent.

Followthe money.

• The US has announced a blockade of all maritime traffic in the Strait of Hormuz originating from Iran or having agreed with Iran for passage;

• This is the full implementation of Washington’s initial objective for waging war with Iran, an oil blockade of not only China but also much of the multipolar world;

• The US’ primary geopolitical objective is global hegemony and the only way it can achieve this objective is by dragging the rest of the rising multipolar world down relative to US power and wealth;

• The primary means to do this is by targeting the life blood of modern civilization which is energy;

• The US has been sabotaging and creating energy crises deliberately around the world including through the invasion of Venezuela, the destruction of the Nordstream pipelines, its own blockade on the so-called “shadow fleet,” and the US CIA and military targeting Russian energy production, storage, and export facilities within Russia itself;
