What Happens if Iran Blocks the Strait of Hormuz?

Video Overview & Insights

Watch the full companion video to this one covering the entire history of the US-Iran conflict here: https://nebula.tv/videos/real-life-lore-modern-conflicts-usiran

Hey guys. If you're interested, I made a 23-minute long documentary that covers the entire history of the US-Iran conflict which you can watch here on Nebula: https://bit.ly/3D3KiLn. It's part of my Modern Conflicts series on Nebula, and this is the 7th episode that I've posted over there so far. I'm posting new episodes every month and I have tons of content over there already that I can't post to YouTube, and the best way to get access to all of that is by signing up for the CuriosityStream/Nebula bundle deal, which is only $15 a year at this link: https://curiositystream.com/?coupon=reallifelore
Thanks!

There is NO reason for the strait to choke the world - that is the global oil industrys doing. They have gotten together in a smoky backroom & cut a crooked deal that if there is any disruption in oil production anywhere in the world all the producers on earth agreed to boost prices & gouge the public because of this 1 producers problems. Thats crooked, but then, we all know there is nobody more crooked than big oil. Well this time they have jumpstarted EV sales to great levels. Oil crisis of 1973? staged. Oil
crisis of 1979? staged.

China’s leaders have wisely invested in solar and wind farms.
Yes, they still need petroleum and coal products, but they can handle this hiccup( belch) in the strait of Hormuz better than many.
The united states should be aggressively pursuing renewable energy sources. They are there already. What is needed is a realistic long term plan that will bring an efficient and manageable
System; with stringent security controls. Petroleum will be around for a while yet, but why not shift the reliance away from oil now.
This shitshow in the Middle East is just getting warmed up.

If you’re just that not much smart you should already figure that Trump and the MAGA voters is like Dumb and Dumber…
And of course no need to see more recent videos like the one about the cost and disaster of the Lincoln park pool 😂😂😂 it’s just peanuts compare to THIS !
Right now it’s not the USA anymore, it’s the BEA : the Banana Empire of America

After the 2026 Iran war started on February 28, they closed the Strait of Hormuz for many months including now. Flights can be expensive due to the Strait of Hormuz closure and airspace disruption. The world will be back to normal in months or less. Keep it up, Real Life Lore!

7:30 looking back now, i see these maps and i think "hmm wouldn't someone who was responsible for billions of dollars and lives look at this map and; given the political climate of the region, go 'hmmmmmmmmm. This could be a disaster if the entire world became reliant on it 🤔' when in reality they likely said,'😈this could be a disaster if the entire world became reliant on it.....' "

Comon. They spend billions and having some professor of geology or politics or something could see the outcomes of all of this. They could even make multiple reports from duffering expertises and experts. And possibly get think tanks to war game those reports "for an excersize" and decide which outcomes they like best if they wanted certain outcomes. Its not like money is involved here. Or power. Like...ffs us "kooks" on the fringes have been saying this for decades and now that your wool is being pulled off you all act schocked? Like i say this in all honesty. THINK FOR YOURSELF.

Because when it's profitable to expend lives the souless ghouls who make decisions will. And now we're facing an entire global famine...but im just some crazy kook. Remember that. 😂

So 4:02 we have used oil en masse for the last 150 ish years and managed to basically kill the planet for humans but everyone was terrified of nuclear power...how many nukes have been set off? How many oil companies have been proven to have done everything in their power to reduce competition and hide the outcomes of the use of their products? How many ecosystems have been ravaged by oil? Im not a nuclear proponent (though it is interesting) but im thinking oil was the worst option...

I return as someone who watched this video before it was cool. Thank you RLL for giving me information that helped me prepare. As usual everyone thinks I'm crazy and fear mongering.

This video hits hard in 2026. almost like someone watched this video and thought to them self "let's do that".

@mikael_johansson

@

now that this happened, we can see that this video was overly exaggerated. I mean yeah there is economic stress right now because the strait is closed. but it did not "SHATTER" the world economy or China's or Japan's economy...its painful for sure, but much less painful that what this video suggested

@CODMASTA

aged like the finest vine imaginabel.

It's open. It's closed. It's open. It's closed. It's closed. It's already closed. Well let's close it again. We'll open it on Friday. Close it on Saturday. Oh, it never opened? Then keep it closed.😂
