The precedent for this response was firmly established during the \u201cTanker War\u201d (1984\u20131988). When Iran began mining the waterway and attacking commercial vessels, the U.S. launched Operation Earnest Will, reflagging Kuwaiti tankers and providing direct naval escorts to ensure global oil flows remained uninterrupted.<\/p>\n<p>Whenever Tehran utilized the Strait as a \u201cbargaining chip\u201d to protest sanctions\u2014most notably in 2011 and 2019\u2014the U.S. and its allies responded by deploying massive carrier strike groups and forming international maritime constructs (such as Operation Sentinel).<\/p>\n<p>The legal basis for these responses has consistently relied on the UN Convention on the Law of the Sea, which limits sovereign interference in international transit. Historically, any Iranian attempt to disrupt the roughly 20% of the world\u2019s oil supply has been characterized by the West not merely as a regional dispute, but as a global economic provocation that justifies direct military intervention against Iranian naval infrastructure.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/trump-issues-the-most-blistering-ultimatum-to-iran-in-history\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On Easter morning, President Trump issued perhaps the strongest threat to the despotic Iranian regime that he has ever put forth, as he warned they had better open the Strait of Hormuz. \u201cTuesday will be Power Plant Day, and Bridge Day, all wrapped up in one, in Iran,\u201d Trump stated clearly targeting those vital infrastructure [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":22748,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[14],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-22747","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-current-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/nationalgunowner.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/22747","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/nationalgunowner.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/nationalgunowner.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nationalgunowner.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nationalgunowner.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=22747"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/nationalgunowner.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/22747\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nationalgunowner.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/22748"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/nationalgunowner.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=22747"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nationalgunowner.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=22747"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nationalgunowner.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=22747"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
