Chinese-owned oil tanker hit near Strait of Hormuz in first since Iran conflict began

[shockedcanadian]

It does not say who attacked it but if China challenged the U.S navy and learned that the blockade is real, they may have just learned how serious America is.

President Xi has been running a declining economy and they are trying to ramp up the "CCP is best!" campaign.

This will not inspire their citizens.

A Chinese-owned oil tanker came under attack near the Strait of Hormuz for the first time since the U.S.-Iran conflict began on Thursday.
A report from Chinese media stated that the unnamed vessel was marked "CHINA OWNER & CREW." The ship's deck caught fire from the attack and it remains unclear whether any of its crew were injured.

This was the first time a Chinese oil tanker has been attacked, a person with knowledge of the matter told Chinese outlet Caixin.
China remains a key buyer of Iranian oil, which has been targeted by a US blockade in the Gulf of Oman.

Who fired on the tanker?

Time for another virus release.

No one will say.

Either way, the CCP lose face for the world to see.

Probably the Israelis, not even Trump is that dumb

If it is a blockade, what makes China so special?

You think firing on a Chinese flagged oil tanker that had Iran's permission to go through the Strait is smart?

Was it smart to attack the Japanese in the Pacific?

This is war. China is funding Irans radical theology as it is Russis war and they are acting sly in the background, smiling as the barbarians kill one another.

They know there is a blockade and they know Iran must not have nukes.

So, smart is not the term, it is necessary and China has had fair warning. Isn't the more appropriate question, "was it smart for China to challenge the U.S blockade? Especially since the world knows how much you have armed their oppressive government that kills their own citizens"

The ship was not running the blockade and I believe was a anchor and not coming from Iran.

It's frightening how detached from reality the remaining MAGA base has become.

Now they want to attack Chinese oil tankers

I am not MAGA base ffs.

If Biden put up a blockade I would say the same. What the hell good is a blockade if the country were 80% of their oil just keeps buying it?

China has been at war with you for 30 years. YOU ARE AT WAR WITH CHINA.

Accept this. They are laughing at the West and how easy it has been. MSS is lucky I was not running the CIA 20+ years ago as I was convinced of Chinas end goal in 2003.

I have no ill will towards the Chinese, their culture, history or even personal goals, though I wish they would change. Their success or failure comes down to the rest of the world and what degree of lost humanity and government control we will accept.

So what? What did Obama do when the Chinese seize a water drone belonging to the US and pry it open, download the data, and return the drone? Nothing. So **** em.

China loves ramming Filipino ships in international water. Again so what?

In the meantime the Iranian oil wells are about to shut down and freeze up.

Who fired on the tanker?

The US Navy said Iran did. "...with friends like these..."

Only if they have Iranian oil.

It’s a good way to test whether the CCP is a paper tiger or not. Let’s see if China sends its navy there to challenge the US. My guess is no they won’t.

That worked out so well testing Russia against Ukraine!
