#Iran has benefited financially from the #war, charing up to $2 million per ship in tolls for passage through the crucial strait. #Trump similarly floated the idea of tolls last week as a “joint venture” with Iran [#WarProfiteering].
The country has also managed to export an average of 1.85 million barrels of crude a day through March — about 100,000 barrels a day more than in the previous 3 months, according to data and analytics firm Kpler.

Create a blockade to override someone else's blockade.
On a body of water which wasn't even an issue before Agent Orange's 'I had a feeling' debacle.
Meanwhile, prices cranked on everything despite he saying the US has enough product (one assumes as bolstered by stolen oil from Venezuela) without needing the Strait open, and costs of refining has not changed.Feeling Great yet America?

Strange coincidence noticed:
"but look at the timing here. have you ever noticed how all of Donny’s ultimatums always come due a half an hour before the markets open on Monday morning?"
Trumpian ultimatums -- given to Iran via his social media app at least 3 times already -- serve at least 2 purposes:
1) Distract from the appearance (reality?) of being out of control.
2) Set up opportunities for outrageous war-profiteering.

Terrific pictorial illustration of who gains from wars… & who doesn’t. There was some terrific art-telling hard, dark truths after each of the WWs (World Wars I & II).

Eric Trump investing in Israeli drone maker Xtend ("low cost-per-kill") while Daddy runs the Pentagon. The conflict of interest isn't a bug, it's the feature. War is now a family franchise. Follow the money, not the morals.

It’s not all bad news. /s
“Tuesday, helped by strong sales in its aeronautics business amid heightened geopolitical uncertainty.
Robust demand for arms, fueled by escalating tensions in the Middle East and the ongoing Russia-Ukraine conflict, has boosted sales for Northrop Grumman and other defence contractors.”

The involvement of #HarrySargeant, who has long-standing ties to the #Venezuela #oil industry, underscores the #Trump admin's reliance on #US #BigOil for “guidance” on how to administer the country's #energy sector following last week's illegal US #military operation that resulted in the abduction of President Nicolas #Maduro.

…Although the exact make-up of the meetings on Sunday & Monday have not been made public, a #US official said #Trump envoy #SteveWitkoff & son-in-law #JaredKushner were travelling to Germany for talks involving Ukrainians & Europeans.
The choice to send Witkoff, who has led negotiations with #Ukraine & #Russia on a US “peace” proposal, appeared to be a signal that Washington sees a chance of “progress”….

Jeffrey Epstein Was a Warlord. We Have to Talk About It.
https://www.thenation.com/article/society/jeffrey-epstein-israel-foreign-policy-elite/The prospect of chaos and war excited Jeffrey Epstein. The late New York financier and child abuser kept a keen eye on news about foreign conflicts that could be exploited for commercial gain. On February 21, 2014, Epstein sent an e-mail to Ehud Barak, the former Israeli prime minister, with whom he would partner the following year as investors in a security tech firm Reporty Homeland Security (later renamed Carbyne). Epstein wrote, “with civil unrest exploding in ukraine syria, somolia [sic], libya, and the desperation of those in power, isn’t this perfect for you.” Barak tried to tamp down his friend’s enthusiasm, noting, “You’re right [in] a way. But not simple to transform it into a cash flow.”This exchange, which was reported by Drop Site News, gets at the heart of one of the more hidden aspects of the Epstein scandal. Epstein’s name is inextricably linked with sexual predation, as it should be. But it should just as readily be linked to global militarism and authoritarianism. Epstein trafficked not just in the bodies of the children he abused but also in social connections that could bring elites together. He well understood that the “desperation of those in power” could make them eager to buy what he was selling: connections with other powerful figures and security systems to clamp down on dissent.The Epstein scandal has once again exploded thanks to the release this week by House Democrats of an immense cache of e-mails between Epstein and many of his famous associates. As my Nation colleagues Chris Lehmann and Joan Walsh have written, these e-mails are politically damaging to Donald Trump, adding yet more evidence that the president was close friends with Epstein for many years, aware of Epstein’s predations, and possibly a participant in some of Epstein’s crimes.Trump richly deserves whatever reputational harm and possible legal retribution may come to him as a result of his ties to Epstein. But, at its heart, this has always been a scandal about the ruling class as a whole, not one individual or political party.The Epstein e-mails document his ties to a wide swath of the US and global elite in ways that transcend partisan lines. Among those Epstein was on easy terms with were former treasury secretary Larry Summers (who held high office under both Bill Clinton and Barack Obama) as well as Trump adviser Steve Bannon and right-wing billionaire Peter Thiel. Even Noam Chomsky wrote glowingly of his “highly valued friend.”

The only ones I even consider forgiving are the US military who were drafted/forced to go & kill our peoples. Not the ones who stepped up & volunteered to go where they should not be, to follow orders from their #warmonger #WarProfiteering #ColonialControl muthafucking "leaders".

#Trump said he”just liked the expression" #AmericaFirst & denied he’s an #isolationist. His ignorance of #history & #ForeignPolicy has led him to denounce wars that began during other president's terms….But to the extent he has a philosophy about #interventionism…, it's #America should "win" wars & then "take the resources”[ #WarProfiteering]. Oh, & allies should pay protection money if they want the #UnitedStates to adhere to its #treaty commitments [aka a #MafiaProtectionRacket / #extortion].
