First, look at a map. The strait is entirely contained by Omani and Iranian waters.

Second, I don't have much else to say to you if you actually think that assassinating a head of state in the middle of active negotiations is anything but vile & uncivilized behavior unbecoming of a "civilized" superpower.

Ultimately, this is going to be a major strategic loss for the US and Israel. They have achieved none of the goals stated at the outset of this "operation", outside of perhaps diminishing the Iranian missile manufacturing capabilities & stockpile.

The UAE has a stake, too.

This statement weakens your argument. (It's also not in line with this forum's guidleines around arguing in good faith.)
