I’m not a conspiracy theorist, so please hear me out:
I think Trump is on a need to know basis and he’s just the face of the decisions being presented to him from parties that are thinking about positioning the U.S. in a Post-NATO world order.
The closure of Hormuz not only impacts a strong Adversary (China) but also many of our allies (Japan, S. Korea, and Europe to a degree).
Marco Rubio saying we were “forced to join Israel” in striking Iran because US assets would be targeted in retaliation doesn’t make sense. Iran knows the U.S.’ military capability and attacking the US unprovoked is something that I couldn’t see them actively doing.
This move is to destabilize the flow of energy, as a point of leverage for the U.S., for countries that depend more on importing oil than the US. It feels like this was something the U.S. wanted to be proactive about, and not reactive about but that isn’t a popular message to the public so the narrative is “we had no choice”.
The world is changing in a meaningful way that will likely have multi generational impacts. As such, this conflict is no where near being over, even if the U.S. withdraws from the region.
The Real Motive Behind the Iranian Conflict is to Position the U.S. in a Post-NATO World Order

Real motive is isolating China, has nothing to do with NATO.
Sometimes the most obvious reasons are not far from truth.
Release the Epstein files.
I’m not reading all this, Trump is just simply an idiot. He saw how “easy” his Venezuela campaign was, and thought this would be an easy job before the midterms to make himself look better. Monkey see monkey do.
You are giving way too much credence to the US administration as if they had a plan beyond the “decapitation” of the Iranian regime.
They thought this was a Venezuela thing and the facts on the ground -utter lack of planning and flailing- confirms it.
What does this have to do with stocks?
