Day 70: The Iranian Regime Controls the Strait

By Mark Davidson on May 9, 2026 • ( 0 )

(9 May 2026) It is now 10 pm MST May 9, or, 4 AM GMT, May 10. As of now, the Strait of Hormuz has been blocked for 70 days.

The idea of the Second Signpost having started March 2 is still in play. And it will remain in play and either be disproved when the regime is completely disbanded, or will be confirmed when the Ram runs out across the Middle East.

Iran Sets New Rules for Strait of Hormuz

This news story reports that the regime has started a new Persian Gulf Strait Authority (PGSA) to implement their control over the Strait.

All ships associated with the US, Israel, or their allies are not allowed in. All other ships must apply and be approved for transit.

Conclusion

There is no sign at this time of the Strait of Hormuz opening up, or the Persian Gulf nations restarting their production.

One of the two goals of the regime, that is to create economic chaos across the earth, is being achieved. As long as the Strait is closed, oil inventories will be reduced to zero, more and more countries will experience fuel shortages, and the US will feel the loss of the petrodollar.

Keep watch.
