1:27:48Now PlayingIn this episode of Conflicted Aimen and Thomas lay out the whole story of the Strait of Hormuz, from ancient times all the way up to right now —explaining why the Iran War is happening, and how it is almost certainly to end.
The episode explores:
-How the Strait of Hormuz caused Noah's Flood
-The medieval Kingdom of Hormuz
-How the Gulf is always caught up in the Iranian plateau's endless boom-and-bust political cycle
-How Europeans staked a claim on Hormuz in 1507—and never really left
-The fact that the U.S. did indeed go into this war with a plan for Hormuz
-How the U.S. will take Kharg Island—and what they will do with it
-The ingenuity of Gulf Arab leadership in planning workarounds for the eventuality of the Strait being closed
-How European powers and other allies are really contributing to the war effort
