Regardless of what happens next and i think that us and UK gave Iran the opp as the HMS Montrose was not properly covering the tanker at the time. The us knows full well what the next move will be in this conflict which is designed for regime change and oil supply
If we had a war and the straits were closed for 3 months oil would probably drop to $40 knowing this bent corrupt bent manipulate market !!
Come on, stop the pretence - deep down we all want the US and Iran to have a bloody go at one another - its the only thing that will get Brent moving up at the moment - bad people!!!
Well said.

"We need Trumpet to Chuck a few artillery shells over the Iran boarder, Iran to shut the Straits and Bobs your uncle !"

Really? It's o.k. to want to make money but to want places (probably containing people) bombed is a bit different. Not what "I" need so control your "we's" or "wee's" or just your wee. Yeah, control your wee. Grrrr.
We need Trumpet to Chuck a few artillery shells over the Iran boarder, Iran to shut the Straits and Bobs your uncle !
Numpty wants to shaft oil prices. The Iranians want to shaft Numpty and his sanctions. At least I know who needs to win this battle for my portfolio to do well!! Keep going you lot...
The Mesdar is owned by this company -

Correction - registered in Liberia not the US.
News media say it is owned by Norbulk but they only seem to manage vessels - not own them.
Reports saying it’s owned by the US !
Reports are saying that the Mesdar is owned by Norbulk Shipping based in the UK but they only manage the day to day running of vessels they don't own them.

Mesdar is a US owned super tanker according to marine traffic - it veered off course towards the Iranian coast but has maybe just turned and is heading towards the EUA - maybe the US have regained control.

A 2nd UK ship possibly hijacked
Update: A second tanker with possible U.K. ownership, the Mesdar, has reportedly broken off course for Saudi Arabia and headed north for Iranian waters. Shortly after these reports broke, U.S. defense officials confirmed the Mesdar was also hijacked by Iranian forces.

Looks like the Iranians have a British ship. Serious escalation.
