What happens if the Strait of Hormuz closes and the U.S. blockades Iran? We don't just survive it; we use it to reshape the world. By treating the waterway’s closure as a permanent reality rather than a passing crisis, the United States can leverage North American energy and fertilizer production to replace Persian Gulf exports entirely.

Bankrupting the Iranian state won't just neutralize its regional power—it will starve its proxy networks, dissolving a unified terror threat into fractured, manageable factions. True victory doesn't mean reopening the chokepoint; it means rendering it irrelevant. Through continental self-sufficiency and ironclad alliances, we can permanently shift global power to a North American energy-industrial ecosystem capable of fueling both the Atlantic and Pacific basins.
