Tehran shifts its Hormuz doctrine: moving away from a total blockade toward institutionalized maritime warfare.
By creating a managed transit corridor with Oman and targeting global shipping services—insurers, operators, and classification societies—Iran is countering the US naval embargo with a regulatory "blockade for blockade."

UN Institutions Face Test on Taiwan's Status.
As the UN General Assembly convenes, a pressing question looms: will institutions like the UN assert their authority to interpret their own rules, or will external forces dictate the terms? The fate of Taiwan's status hangs in the balance, tied to the interpretation of Resolution 2758.

The strait Iran declared closed is the strait its oil minister says never stopped exporting through. CENTCOM struck three carriers the same week Treasury designated a Turkish bank. Three central banks meet into whatever that produces. Every source linked.

Iran published its own transit collapse (100+ ships to 7 to 8), then its oil minister said crude exports never stopped. CENTCOM struck three carriers. Treasury designated Golden Global Bank. The ECB meets Thursday into whatever Brent produces. #Hormuz #Iran #Geopolitics

When a political movement cannot quite explain where Britain should go, it apparently finds comfort in explaining where Britain used to be. -

No soy un experto en comercio ni economía, pero se me antoja este un momento magnífico para que Europa impulse acuerdos comerciales bilaterales con Canadá aprovechando los huecos dejados por la guerra comercial con EE.UU., especialmente en aeronáutica, maquinaria industrial y el sector farmacéutico, quizá también en acero. En este mundo de tiburones hay que ser tiburón, y sería una oportunidad extraordinaria para que Canadá pueda gradualmente ir rompiendo dependencias con Estados Unidos en favor de la Unión Europea. Digo.

RE: https://aus.social/@jhaue/117226418341534408
It is worth the read of course, but one ought to remain critical while doing so.
All of the information that went into this article was obtained from publicly available sources. That doesn’t diminish the value of that information or the article itself, but it does leave many questions unanswered and many facts undiscovered. The one thing that the article is sorely lacking is an analysis to balance what we know with its importance within the strategic context. As a result the article misses what should have be its intended goal of calling the value of the alliance into question which is, unfortunately, largely compensated for by the emotional responses unleached in the reader (which may have been the writer’s real objective).
Yes… OMG… the Merikans are overwhelming us and colonizing Australia! That kind of response does not serve us well at all. If anything, it goes to enflame a situation about which we know next to fuck all [pardon my French]. Given the likely classification of everything that would shed a light on what is occurring and connect govt decisions to recommendations drawn from an exhaustive strategic analysis of Australian defence needs, **we will never know the whole truth**.
If we cannot trust our elected representatives to do the right thing and make the tough decisions when it comes to our safety from foreign aggression and our defence needs, then we only have ourselves to blame for voting the bastards in. But first we must establish that ‘they’ cannot be trusted. We haven’t done this. Not once on the matter of our military alliances. Ever. Which implies that, to my knowledge, there’s never been a situation in Australian Commonwealth history where evidence has surfaced that would have led us to question the trust we place in our leaders on defence matters (As Britain found out in 1942).
And so, we come back full circle. There is no excuse for leaving *politics* aside until the next election saussage. However fortunate we are that voting is compulsory, we should not slack off during the interim periods. It is incumbent upon all of us to do the homework. Get informed from sources deemed reliable, apply critical thinking, update your opinions accordingly and find the best candidates for the job you wish them to do for you, whatever the circumstances - 365 days a year.
*Don’t complain, be constructive in whichever way you can, for the good of the country and your own wellbeing*. That’s been my motto.
In the meantime, ask yourself a simple question: ‘Why is China aggressively expanding its sphere of influence and arming itself at a breakneck speed?’ [as well as causing an arms race in SEAsia] If you get an defensible answer, ask yourself how Australia should position itself in response. What would you do as PM?

AUKUS Revitalizes Australia's Submarine Ambitions
As Australia embarks on the AUKUS defence program, a crucial question arises: who's the enemy we're preparing to defend against? The answer lies in the country's complex history of submarine planning, shaped by two distinct policy frames and the looming threats of a volatile region.
