[/quote] Let's just say I'm not yours, you sniveling Coward... [/quote] Coward? Where did that come from? LoL [/quote] Here's why you are a coward... You blocked me from all your threads because you are afraid of what I say because you cannot defend against my logic. You are therefore a coward incapable of dialog with anyone that doesn't kiss your ass because you are Iranian. [/quote] Ow i didn't know it would hurt your feelings. Remember why i did that? [/quote] Didn't hurt my feelings at all, it was your own stupidity that prevents you from engaging in open debate... You come from a sheltered society where only one view is acceptable, when faced with a view that is different from your own, you feel weakened by the contact. I have dealt with Iranians since before you were born, you're stuck up and proud but what really has Iran done since the age of Xerxes? Your nation would be a shithole without the money you get from oil, you have never created anything of value to the world... [/quote]

Iran is planning to charge foreign ships a toll in exchange for "protection" across the Strait of Hormuz, a key trade route and a flashpoint in the escalating dispute between the United States and the Islamic Republic.
A member of the Iranian Parliament's presidium said foreign commercial entities should compensate Iran as "the true provider of security in the region and international waters,". Amirhossein Qazizadeh Hashemi claimed ships enter Iranian waters on their way through the strait and should therefore pay a toll.

The Strait of Hormuz is a narrow, 21-mile waterway linking the Persian Gulf to the Gulf of Oman and greater Arabian Sea. About 18.5 million barrels of oil travel through the strait each day, accounting for 30% of the world's sea-traded oil. The waterway is considered crucial to global trade, but with a shipping lane only three miles long, it is also extremely vulnerable.
