If you think the Strait of Hormuz is the only choke point the US has their eye on, don't forget the #PanamaCanal. Suddenly 3 tanker trucks burst into flames magically under the Bridge of America, now?

Hormuz is not the only weak spot for global trade Iran's closure of the Strait of Hormuz has disrupted global oil and gas flows, highlighting the vulnerability of maritime chokepoints that carry 85% of world trade.
