Let's get back to the show.
Now, it's not just about oil prices and stock markets.
The people who actually live on the shores of the Strait, you know, Iranians, Omanis, Emiratis and all these coastal communities, many of whom depend on fishing and trade for their livelihoods, are also caught in the middle.
The militarization of these waters threatens the fisheries and the mines are going to threaten the communities that live there.
And it raises the risk of oil spills from tankers that are damaged.
And it really just disrupts the daily lives of millions of people who have literally nothing to do with any of this.
And the human cost basically never makes the headlines because, you know, no one really cares about the average person, the, you know, the middle to lower class person that's affected by these conflicts that has nothing to do with it or really has no say.
They just get pushed to the side.
Now, the United States and allied naval forces have reportedly been working to clear mines and establish protected shipping corridors, but the sheer volume of Iran's mine stockpile and the narrowness of the strait make this an enormous challenge.
It's also worth noting that closing the strait hurts Iran itself.
This is the reason why they haven't closed it for so long.
Iran's own oil exports transit the same waterway, and a prolonged closure would devastate an already
sanction-battered economy.
