@Frank_Giustra@RealDougCasey Imagine what the founding fathers would have thought about the "confiscation" of gold in 1934.
The real Republic has been long dead.
And it will get much, much worse.
@JavierBlas@opinion Only 35% of the tankers that pass through the Strait of Hormuz in normal times are oil tankers.
What about all the other ones with critical supplies?
BREAKING: Iran's Foreign Ministry now officially confirms that no Iranian nuclear commitments and uranium handover exist or will exist in any draft agreement with the US, calling all reports that claim otherwise a "pure lie," making further talks pointless due to the US insistence on this issue.
Based on that issue, the statement declares "we are not signing any agreement with the US" and "no one can claim we are close to reaching an agreement." Iran separately stated to Tasnim they are now on the verge of "cancelling" the negotiations completely.

When Trump walks away?
Will that open the Strait?
The world economy will still take a deep dive.
Nothing gets solved.
Attacking Iran again is even worse and only accelerates the coming depression.
But both scenarios will have the same outcome.
