The U.S. Navy's dominance is becoming a liability in the Strait of Hormuz, where an asymmetric war is draining advanced missile stockpiles and forcing American and European taxpayers to pay the bill. Regional powers are now controlling global trade routes, raising the question of who will dominate tomorrow's critical maritime chokepoints.

The way you need to understand this is that this asymmetric war of attrition in the Strait of Hormuz, because has successfully, successfully now turned the US naval power or dominance, whatever term you want to use, into a logistical liability. At the same time, it is forcing Europe now to finance the bill, footing the bill, and the American average citizen, the middle class here, taxpayers. US is already depleting its advanced missile stockpile, and Washington now is running out of sustainable military options. So, because the way you're going to be looking at it moving forward, and we've already mentioned this before, the rules of global trade now are being rewritten by regional power, not by the United States. That is the difference. All those trades we used to see and all that, it's now changing because of a regional power that is dictating all that. So, and that in itself force us to ask the critical question: if the world's most powerful navy according— in theory, on paper, basically— can no longer guarantee free transit without bankrupting its own arsenal, who will actually control the global chokepoints of tomorrow? That's, to me, a question worth, worth asking, and I would love to read your feedback
