I forgot one of my M's.
I was thinking about this, it's just a fleeting thought in my head that it's really interesting if like your Putin Z or the Iranian leadership and that really, what do you care about staying in power?
I mean, that's kind of your core business is me being in power.
And so if you're Iran, you can kind of stomach a worse economy or more hiccups because you don't really care about the people that live there.
It's about, hey, we got to keep this regime going.
And it's almost interesting if you're the Iranians to get on a call with Putin and Putin's like, guys, you just got to make it two years, two years.
And this guy's out of office.
Like you guys are you guys are trying to stick around for 50, 100 years or whatever it is.
But, you know, you just got to weather the storm for two years.
Can you weather a two year storm if there's a complete close of the straight?
You know what I mean?
They're playing by different timetables because new leadership comes in and, you know, you might get some Democrat that just decides, hey, we're buying the oil from Iran.
We're changing the whole thing here.
it's like a formal announcement of a whoopsies here hey guys we can't just we can't just move on because we made iran a world power uh interesting thing to note and i might not have the uh all the specifics perfect on this but it's not exactly an international waterway based off like uh maritime law it's kind of like duly owned by oman and iran because of how close it is to their shoreline
Now, there was an international treaty that allows for something like a critical passageway.
Then I guess the typical law of how close you are to someone's shoreline doesn't apply and they have to let you pass.
But here's the kicker.
Iran's an international pariah.
They never signed that thing.
I want to make it clear.
