What recent event caused Donald Trump to go silent?

Ben Meiselas 0:00
Donald Trump has gone silent as Iran strikes another cargo ship in the Strait of Hormuz. This is precisely what I predicted was going to happen in the first video I did this morning. Moments ago, we learned the following. A UK MTO, United Kingdom Maritime Warning, stated the following. Attack! Attack! a cargo vessel has been hit on the starboard side by an unknown projectile causing damage to the bridge master has reported no casualties and no environmental impact obviously iran is exerting its newly claimed control over hormuz After yesterday's Omani route breakout, remember, Iran said, you cannot go through the Oman route, the Oman passage. You need IRGC approval. And if you try to test us, we will knock out your ship.

That is precisely what happened. And I have been saying, yes the oil prices have been dropping on the brent crude futures but i said there is massive instability and it's dropping based on massive market manipulation and remember this morning i shared with you the data under the two years in the biden administration following Russia's invasion of Ukraine. And I said, look at what the prices were there, way higher. I said, there's far more instability now. And also we see there's far more instability in Russia's invasion of Ukraine and Ukraine responding by attacking the Russian oil depots. Yet the price of Brent crude was $73. It made absolutely no sense to me at all. And Donald Trump, after manipulating the market all day yesterday and Treasury Secretary Besant doing the same look, he has no items today on his calendar where he'll be talking to the press.

Who knows? Maybe he shows up. He hasn't posted anything on social media. It is a fraud in plain sight that is taking place. Another open source intelligence account explains how this container ship was hit by a projectile sailing in the forbidden corridor of the Omani waters.

How did Iran assert control over the Strait of Hormuz?

Ben Meiselas 2:23
Again, that's the video I did this morning because I said this is what's going to happen and it's going to happen quite frequently. And the fact that two U.S. aircraft carriers, fighter jets, drones, that are going around the Strait of Hormuz 24-7 couldn't protect this container ship in the Omani waters is a reminder. The U.S. has no control over the Strait of Hormuz. And I've been showing you the actual satellite data of the ships that are pinging that they are in the Strait of Hormuz. And you'll see right here that... Yesterday, there were ships trying to get through the Omani route. You see right here that the ships have been turning around and they either use the IRGC route or they don't get out of the Strait of Hormuz.
Ben Meiselas 3:07
That's what's going on. Foreign Minister Aragchi spoke with his counterpart in Oman, the foreign minister of Oman, to discuss regional updates. And here's what they said coming out of this meeting. that they agree that for a temporary 60-day period that they will allow for there to be free transit through the IRGC-controlled area in the Strait of Hormuz, but that's for a limited 60-day period. And thereafter, Iran intends to charge fees. billions of dollars in fees. And the Wall Street Journal did an article about that today, but we didn't need that from the Wall Street Journal because Iran has been saying it and they've been doing what they're saying. And we can read what's in the memorandum of understanding.

Iran intends to charge environmental service fees, protection fees as the overall toll structure where they plan to make billions and billions of dollars. And by the way, we can actually show you data, show you receipts, show you audio. I mean, this isn't some cloak and dagger stuff right now.

What are the implications of the UK maritime warning?

Ben Meiselas 4:19
I mean, this is happening in plain sight. So for example, ships have turned around in the Strait of Oman When the IRGC issued the warning, we have the audio of the SEPA Navy. That's the IRGC Navy, SEPA Navy, SEPA Navy. Turn your ships around, turn your ships around, or we will strike you. And the ship that didn't turn around got hit. That's what happened. Here, I'll show you this. Let's play this audio of the SEPA Navy, the IRGC Navy broadcasting this.
