The world is outraged about goods and trade disrupted by the closure of Hormuz. But the thousands of seafarers trapped in that war zone? Silence. These are the very people whose courage and labour will eventually put those goods on your shelves. seatrade-maritime.com/crewing/the-in…

So just stating the 2 opposing views on Hormuz transit rights without taking a side has people demanding that I apologize for Gaza, Lebanon, famine in Somalia, and the fact that the store is out of Rice Krispies. I am just stating what maritime law says, nothing more. You can debate about the declining value of international law, the decline of international institutions and they're all valid points, but the people that start screaming about me because I don't mention the bombing of a school or the legality of the war in general need to find a different channel. I write about maritime issues and maritime law is still part of that. I try to inform people about maritime issues, nothing more, nothing less. Do with the info whatever you feel like, but don't threaten me because I didn't write about that one issue you're hyperfixated on or because you suffer from monomania.

Does Iran have the legal right to create checkpoints in the Strait of Hormuz? According to the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS) 1982, they do not. However, Iran signed but never ratified UNCLOS 1982, similar to the United States. As a result, Iran reverts

Japanese PM Sanae Takaichi's reaction as Trump says "Who knows better about surprise than Japan? Why didn't you tell me about Pearl Habour?" Undoubtedly the worst American diplomatic gaffe in post-war US-Japan history.

I remember Pete well from my seasons with @fylderugby and also the piece I did on him and his story with him being deaf which is there on the link below. A lovely person and a fitting way of honouring his career and all he’s achieved in it.

@BartGonnissen From some one who sailed in the Gulf War Zone in 1982, there is nothing worth the risk . Especially when you see a ship get hit, pick up survivors and say “That could have been us?”
