Tanker strike claims and a call to treat the Strait of Hormuz as 'closed'

A post claims 12 tankers were hit in under a week and argues the Strait of Hormuz should be treated as closed until Iran is shown to be out of missiles. It cites economist Philip Pilkington's claim that attackers have 'fire control' over tankers. Separately, another user blames Democrats' opposition to pipelines, refineries and drilling rigs for making a potential disruption harder to ignore.
