Iran Says Any Country Can Pass Through Strait of Hormuz Except US and Israel. US Media Twisting Story

[munkle]

I remember Iran clearly saying the Strait is open to anyone but the countries who are bombing it. But to read about it in the US media this detail is omitted to make it sound like Iran is closing it completely. Which it will do if Trump follows through on his threats.

Iran Shares Strait of Hormuz Update: Any Country Can Pass — Except US and Israel

Iran's Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi clarified that the Strait of Hormuz remains open, but only for vessels not associated with Iran's adversaries, specifically American and Israeli ships. He emphasized that while many tankers are still navigating the strait, security concerns have led some...

"Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi pushed back Saturday against the widespread characterisation that the Strait of Hormuz is closed, with a significant caveat. "The Strait of Hormuz is open. It is only closed to the tankers and ships belonging to our enemies, to those who are attacking us and their allies," Araghchi said in an interview with MS Now. "Others are free to pass. Of course, many of them prefer not to because of their security concerns. This has nothing to do with us."

He added that tankers are still moving through the strait, just not American or Israeli ones. The message was clear: Iran is not blockading the world's oil supply, it is targeting its enemies specifically."

Are you just unironically deepthroating Iranian propaganda at this point? This was the other thread you started on this very day:

Thread 'Tucker Carlson Smacks Down Interviewer on Israel's "Right to Exist": Does Lebanon? Does Gaza?'

Yesterday at 12:58 PM

This is a beautiful smackdown. Don't ever try to out-debate Tucker.



March 21, 2026 Tucker Carlson: "The first thing that Israel did within two weeks of this war starting, which is supposedly existential for them, was take southern Lebanon, take someone else's country, as they have done repeatedly. And no one even mentions that. And so I guess I would be opposed to that because I guess I think Lebanon has a right to exist. I thought Gaza had a right to exist. But I noticed that as soon as we started rights, only one country gets them."

Sorry this ruins your little narrative that Iran is closing the Straits.

Please give us a GPS location for where we can meet with Iran's leadership on this decision.

Then why do they keep attacking oil tankers from other countries?

 

[ColonelAngus]

So US and Israel can fly flags of other countries on their ships?

It is too bad Iran cant just sell oil and be happy.

Why would U.S. ships be passing through there, anyway?

There is not way we should be buying oil from that region. Let alone, Iran.

It's what winners do .
Kill first and possibly ask questions later .

Those Hooty Tooty Freedom Fighters held off Saudi for almost a decade before the Saudis conceded .
Dealing with serial Blunderers , America , should be far easier for the Freedom Fighters .

So if it is open to all but US and Israeli ships, it is open.

Cool.

It's going to be opened by the U.S. Israel definition.

Iran regime can want in one hand and shit in the other. . . guess which hand will be filled first.

If the US has no ships there, it does not matter.

 

[Chuz Life]

If the US has no ships there, it does not matter.

Our interest is in keeping the strait open, for our allies, even if not for our own ships, directly.

I remember Iran clearly saying the Strait is open to anyone but the countries who are bombing it.

I also remember it that way.

But to read about it in the US media this detail is omitted to make it sound like Iran is closing it completely. Which it will do if Trump follows through on his threats.

Yes.

No clue what you are talking about

Is it open for non US and Israeli ships as Iran is saying?
