yeah this would be a pretty retarded move; but since the general population wont do a damn thing about it..... why not do it? ( I guess thats the mentality)

I've seen it predicted (and hold this belief myself) that oil starvation is a very real way to reach the population decrease desired; a decrese of 20-30% of the worlds oil will caues food production/delivery problems & could cascade into some serious "****".


HOWEVER... are you SURE the US is blockading the strait?



The U.S. Navy said Iran's threat to block the strategically and economically important Strait of Hormuz is unacceptable.

"The free flow of goods and services through the Strait of Hormuz is vital to regional and global prosperity," Navy 5th Fleet in Bahrain spokeswoman Cmdr. Amy Derrick Frost told reporters on Wednesday.

"Anyone who threatens to disrupt freedom of navigation in an international strait is clearly outside the community of nations; any disruption will not be tolerated."

The 34-mile-wide shipping channel leads in and out of the Persian Gulf between Iran and Oman. It is strategically important because tankers carrying oil travel through it.
