Iran was going to charge $1 per barrel to "hostile" nations who transit the Strait. At oil's current price, that's a 1.33% fee. Trump is implementing a 20% fee to ALL traffic. With BS moves like these, It's becoming hard to swallow the rhetoric that Iran is the evil player here.

They were literally bombed during peace negotiations, it should be impossible to swallow the rhetoric that Iran is evil here lol.
