    So a thread about Iran seizing ships turns into a production piece from the chamber of commerce?

    Welcome to the age of disinformation!

    We have long lived in the age of disinformation and there is no where that becomes clearer than if you visit Iran. But on the topic of this thread, for those who might not have seen it, here is a video of Iran's revolutionary guards seizing the Stena Imperio in response to the earlier act of piracy by the Brits seizing an Iranian supertanker with roughly 1 Billion USD worth of crude oil in it.

    He says nice things but there is something very misleading and unrepresentative when it comes to what he is showing.

    One of the somewhat less polemical and informative pieces relating to the current stand off between Iran and the new Mongols of our age who occupy the US government is the one below.

    In response to devastating US sanctions, Iran is choosing confrontation over surrender.

    Iranian oil tanker was attacked twice with missiles near the coast of Saudi Arabia in red Sea yesterday. This is a conflict ready to escalate to a war.
