Iran’s Hormuz Toll Bluff: No Law, Just Gang Tactics: Secretary Rubio just dropped it on the Department of State account on X—half an hour ago: “Iran is making threats and demands during the negotiations with the Americans about controlling the Strait of Hormuz and creating a tolling system. That’s not going to be allowed to happen,” he said. Spot-on. Their “Attawah”—like gangsters shaking down passersby—has zero legal legs. Here’s why: ⸻ It’s a natural strait, not a dug canal. No company got UN approval to build it, invest, then charge fees. Unlike Suez or Panama, nature made it—everyone uses it for free. ⸻ The 12-mile national water rule? Doesn’t own it! Iran pushes territorial waters, but that’s nonsense. UNCLOS (signed by Iran in 1982) has special rules for straits like this: transit passage means no blocking, no tolls—continuous flow for all ships under high seas laws. ⸻ It’s not Iran’s alone—countries are locked behind it. Iraq, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, and the UAE rely on Hormuz, and they have rights to it by law, as they rely on it for global trade. UN law protects their access and gives them special leverage too. Closing it hurts countries and gives the UN the right to intervene, even by recommending guarding it by an international force. The world needs it; the world relies on it. ⸻ Iran’s playing delay: float threats, jitter markets, squeeze negotiations. Rubio called Iran “Terroristan”—funny, but smart. Best reply? Laugh it off. They lack cover to charge a dime. Law says the strait stays open—no cartel tax, Mullahs.
