    > the U.S. and Israeli attacks on Iran closed the Strait of Hormuz

    Am I the only one who finds this disingenuous? It's like saying: "the police's arrival to the bank robbery took someone hostage." The police's arrival may have triggered the hostage taker's actions but it was still their actions. It's like the author let their dislike of Trump get in the way of accuracy.

    It's easy enough to argue that the war is a disaster without being misleading about who did what.

      What was the singular action that led to Hormuz being closed?
