I agree with everything Hegseth is quoted on here. Europe depends far more on oil passing through the Strait than the US, so you’d think they’d be eager to help get it flowing again.
So if they aren't stepping up, is it because they’re weak? Or is something else going on?
I think they understand that Iran isn’t nearly the threat that the US and Israel make it out to be. They probably also see that the costs, both financial and military, aren’t worth it.
Eventually one side will either win or withdraw. Then oil will start moving again. In the meantime, I think they are content to sit back and let others waste their money and manpower on the conflict. I don’t blame them. I wish we had never gotten involved there in the first place.
Or maybe they're just weak. That could be true too 
Its probably because they didn't start a needless war and now that Trump can't find an offramp he is trying to make it other peoples problem.
Not to mention he said help, we don't need help, youre weak, stay away, you should be protecting the straight, it's our blockade!
They see him a retard. You can't allow a retard to lead you around......
