    So the USA want to turn everyone against them? There are insufficient amount of resources outside the Gulf and this move will only further reduce the amount of goods available. The US “allies” will compete directly with US citizens for resources, the neutral great powers will have even more incentive to directly help Iran break US arm force and reduce the US capacity and all the rest of the world (the global South) will further destabilized and hate the US cause they’re causing greater suffering. Even without sinking a single US ship. If Iran can stop everything from moving through the strait the US will keep sinking further into crisis. This is an insane move that doesn’t solve the fundamental problem and will backfire hugely soon.
