Iran is reportedly conducting a "serious review" of closing the Strait of Hormuz, the world's most critical oil transit route, according to Esmail Kowsari, a member of Iran's parliamentary security commission. The news has already triggered a surge in global oil prices and heightened international concerns. Geopolitical analyst Taufiq Rahim noted that Israel has not yet attacked Iran’s oil infrastructure, but if such strikes occur, the consequences could be catastrophic. A closure of the Strait of Hormuz would severely disrupt the global energy supply chain, far beyond just the Middle East.

As Israel strikes Iran, President Trump is facing scrutiny over the U.S.'s true role. While publicly urging restraint, Trump later praised the attack and reportedly provided Israel with intelligence support. The incident reveals a divide between Trump’s “America First” base—wary of war—and hawkish allies urging stronger action. Analysts suggest the U.S. is secretly involved, risking escalation. The situation may benefit China strategically, as the U.S. is stretched by multiple crises. The real test now: how far will Trump go in supporting Israel?
