Trump saying “reopen the strait yourselves” to all allies will be tantamount to telling every nation to cut deals directly with Iran, who will no doubt require them to eschew the petrodollar and possibly much more in their relationships with the US in a strait which everyone was free to use 2 months ago wtf did we even accomplish with all of this other than massively destroying American global influence??
Shanaka Anslem Perera ⚡@shanaka86

BREAKING: Malaysia called the US-Israeli strikes on Iran “barbaric” and a “violation of international law.” It declared its US reciprocal trade agreement “null and void” after the Supreme Court struck down Trump’s tariffs. And then it picked up the phone, called Tehran, and secured toll-free passage for seven Petronas tankers through the Strait of Hormuz. Transport Minister Anthony Loke confirmed on March 31 that no toll is being imposed on Malaysian vessels because Malaysia has been designated a “friendly nation” by the IRGC. The strait that charges $2 million per crossing to everyone else lets Malaysian ships through for free. This is the new sorting algorithm. The IRGC is not just filtering by cargo type. It is filtering by geopolitical alignment. China transits free because China buys Iranian oil and hosts the peace talks. India transits free because India maintains backchannels and refuses to condemn. Pakistan transits free because Pakistan is brokering the five-point framework in Beijing. And now Malaysia transits free because Malaysia condemned the war, nullified its American trade deal, and positioned itself as a Muslim-majority nation aligned with neither aggressor. The toll booth is not charging for passage. It is charging for allegiance. And the nations that pay nothing are the nations that owe Washington the least. Malaysia imports 70 percent of its crude through Gulf routes. Without the exemption, Petronas tankers would face $2 million tolls plus war-risk insurance that would collapse refining margins and spike domestic petrol prices. Prime Minister Anwar thanked President Pezeshkian personally. The Iranian ambassador confirmed the designation. Seven tankers have clearance. Petronas has assured domestic fuel stability through May. The US trade deal nullification adds the second dimension. On March 15, Malaysia’s trade minister declared the American Reciprocal Tariff agreement “null and void” after the Supreme Court ruling. Within two weeks, Malaysia secured toll-free passage from the country America is at war with. The timeline is not coincidental. It is transactional. Malaysia calculated that the cost of American displeasure is lower than the cost of $2 million per tanker crossing multiplied by every Petronas vessel for the duration of a war with no visible end date. The math chose Tehran over Washington. The math was correct. And this is the pattern that should alarm every strategist in the Pentagon. Malaysia is not an adversary. It is a US security partner in Southeast Asia, a semiconductor packaging hub, a Five Eyes intelligence-adjacent nation, and a TPP signatory. If Malaysia can nullify a US trade deal, condemn the war as barbaric, secure free passage from the IRGC, and maintain diplomatic relations with both sides simultaneously, then the American alliance system is not being challenged by enemies. It is being arbitraged by friends. The toll booth is revealing who actually needs whom. And the answer is that a $2 million crossing fee has more immediate power over national alignment than 80 years of American security guarantees. The IRGC did not build a blockade. It built an alignment detector. Ships that belong to nations aligned with Washington pay. Ships that belong to nations aligned with neutrality or Beijing pass free. The strait is sorting the world order in real time, and the sorting criterion is not military power. It is diplomatic flexibility. Malaysia chose flexibility. The tankers are sailing. And Washington, as Trump promised on Truth Social, will remember. open.substack.com/pub/shanakaans…

World Cup should he a direct one game elimination tournament with all countries included by default. No qualification needed and no one should ever play a friendly game… except for charity. *meme of guy standing alone*

@RapidsJason @theoldzealand It's difficult to stat pad your rank when you mostly play higher ranked countries because you're geographically stuck on a specific federation. Friendly games are absolutely irrelevant.

@FilmBrief @theoldzealand My point is that its actually 2/3rds of UEFA that has a better ELO rank than Haiti, but Bosnia is only 12 spots ahead of them (and behind 5 countries in Haiti's confederation). But since you don't even know which one it is, STFU (And last time Italy and Haiti played it was 2-2)

@RapidsJason @theoldzealand Sorry, what's your argument here? The issue is obviously that the strength of the different federations is very different. It's way harder to qualify from Europe as your competition is much stronger. Maybe learn to think before typing?

@FilmBrief @theoldzealand Given you don't even know what the confederations are, you should probably STFU. (You should also check to see what happened last time Italy played Haiti)

Trump is chaotically dismantling the American empire, and he will kill USD preeminence and the American prosperity which comes from printing the world’s reserve currency and maintaining a network of global alliances he’ll never say that’s what he’s doing. it may not be what he wants to do, but it is what will happen and the same people who act like he’s saving America’s global dominance will be the ones who say its managed decline was necessary 10 years from now these people don’t understand or care about anything it’s just all bullshit tbh
