On 13 April 2026, the United States imposed a naval blockade on Iranian ports in the Strait of Hormuz following the collapse of peace talks in Islamabad, Pakistan.
The true intentions behind the US’ blockade in the Strait of Hormuz are unclear, Charlie Howden writes. He speculates whether it may be part of a larger plan to create a new world order, aligned with the World Economic Forum’s goals and the UN’s Agenda 21/2030.

In an article published on Wednesday by Free Speech Backlash, Charlie Howden tries to make sense of what’s really going on with the war on Iran.
The US has blockaded the Strait of Hormuz, aiming to destroy Iran’s economy, but this move risks damaging the global economy, including the US’s own, he reasoned.
The blockade has reduced traffic in the Strait to 10 ships a day, down from the normal 120-140 vessels, causing a huge impact on the world economy, with oil prices skyrocketing and food security teetering on the brink.
“So, let’s probe the ‘logic’ behind the US blockade,” he said. And continued:
Ostensibly, [the blockade is] to kneecap Iran’s economy, starving its war chest by choking exports. Sounds ruthless, right? Except … is it? Here’s where it gets ludicrous. Slamming Hormuz doesn’t just hurt Tehran; it hammers everyone from British pump prices to Chinese factories. The world’s economy is the real casualty, with International Monetary Fund (“IMF”) forecasts slashing 2026. Why torch the village to smoke out one house?”
If the goal was pure economic warfare on Iran, precision sanctions or targeted interdictions would do the trick without igniting a global bonfire. Instead, this blunt blockade reeks, at best, of overreach, begging the question: is it really about Iran, or something grander – and more destructive?
Is Trump’s fireworks display, wittingly or unwittingly, fuelling the World Economic Forum’s (“WEF’s”) dystopian dream and the UN’s Agenda 21/2030 blueprint for “sustainable” control? Recall the WEF’s infamous line: “By 2030, you’ll own nothing and be happy” – code for centralised overlords engineering scarcity to herd the masses into digital cages – universal basic income, asset grabs and supranational rule under the guise of climate and equity fixes. Agenda 21, that 1992 UN blueprint evolving into 2030’s sustainable development goals, pushes similar themes: interconnected crises as levers for global governance, from resource rationing to behavioural nudges.
The Hormuz blockade’s shockwaves are a near-perfect match. Sky-high energy costs? They erode savings, forcing folks from car ownership to communal transport, aligning with “own nothing” mobility mandates. Commodity crunches in food and fertilisers? They spike prices, hammering small farmers and pushing reliance on corporate or state handouts – echoing Agenda 2030’s food security pacts that centralise supply chains. Global growth dips? Cue the calls for “resilient” economies via green transitions, digital IDs and wealth redistribution – WEF wet dreams all. Trump’s “America First” bluster rails against Davos elites, yet his blockade is brewing the very brew they sip: interdependence turned weapon, crises as catalysts for reset. Europe’s energy woes? Priming the pump for supranational grids. US consumers squeezed? Softening resistance to universal controls. It’s ironic poetry – anti-globalist Trump, by fracturing the old order, accelerates the one where sovereignty shrinks and elites orchestrate from afar. Is it a coincidence? Or does chaos always pave the road for the “experts”?

Amen and Amen
Western media is paid to publish by the likes of WEF and the western banking mafia.
Only this is Iran and not Gaddafi or Saddam Hussein. Thankfully Iran is winning this and Trump and his pirates are getting their comeuppance. Even Europe is learning to remove themselves from Trump.
Iran are not winning. Thanks for supporting the murder of thousands of Iranians though…TDS is real, and ignorance usually goes with it ….wow shall I send you a one way ticket to Iran you more ron..
Yep, I already suspected as much possibly being brought forward because people are waking up? 🤬
Club of 300 run the world 🌎🌍
No one runs the world, the club of 300 might run the system but not the world, world runs by its own universal law
Wrong. satan is the ruler of this world.
“For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in high places. – Ephesians 6:12
Do you mean the Committee of 300?
Well Considering Trump is Backed by Rothschild’s Family ,,,
Rothschild’s Family Owns The Middle East Oil Oil since the 1920s ,,
The Squeeze is on Iran to get Iran’s economy to slow down enough to give an illusion of not run by Rothschild’s Family ,
The Helium is desired ,
Even though Rothschild’s Family runs China since The Opium Wars in the 1880s ,
The Master Controllers are also doing it cause the Public was crying about Affordability Elites always do opposite of what public asks for at least this time and some other times that’s what happened…
Every country is a member of the united nations except Palestine and Vatican Catholic Church ,,
Iran is a member of the united nations , It’s smoke and mirrors and Pony Show Bread and Circuses,, They’re Setting The Stage…
Rothschild’s Family is going to make Trump look so bad next president will end being a Rockefeller ,
Normally Rockefeller chooses the president, But Rothschild’s Family Backed Trump
Look at it this way what trump us going to do
Trump is number 45 Forty Five president and number 47 Forty Seven
4+5=9
4+7= 11
9/11
9/11 as Emergency ???
9/11 as set the economy in turmoil ?
It’s Not a Coincidence Trump is number 45 and 47 ,,
Next president will be backed by Rockefeller , Typo up above..

Why are Charles’ eyes so bloodshot?
In many pics, both he and Trump are wearing suits puffed out across the chest. Bullet-proof vests under their shirts and across their backs?
When a leader has to go to such extremes to protect himself among his own people (e.g., the US Congress), something is very wrong with his country. If we have turned into a country of assassins and murderers, it was while they and their kind have been in charge. And their reaction is merely to beef up their own security? What about ours?
Only in the short term. Once the IRGC, and it surprises me how many ignorant fools on here support it…is destroyed, Trump will have bought peace to the middle east…so much TDS, so much ignorance, so much short sightedness…he is not their man, they hate him.
the N W O is being created and trump is acting out his part perfectly to lead the pacific region into the fold . there will be no border between canakastan and the u s of slaves and that’s just the way it is . no tds that’s your hang up or hero to save you .

The World Economic Forum was founded by a Jew, Klaus Schwab. It is run by Jews, including:
Alex Soros: Chair of the Board of Directors.
Rabbi Pinchas Goldschmidt: President of the Conference of European Rabbis and contributor.
Yuval Noah Harari: Historian, philosopher, and WEF contributor.
David Rosen: Special Interfaith Advisor, Abrahamic Family House.
It has non-Jewish members, but they must support the Jewish Agenda 2030.
I don’t understand Ms. Wilson’s stance against the WEF when she has also written so strongly in support of the Jews as God’s chosen people who we all must accommodate (see the Greek choir article above this one).
Their Agenda 2030 is one of the major reasons I’m not blithely going along with anything they say or do unless I can be certain it neither does harm to others nor exploits them. Their history doesn’t bode well for our future.
Hi Worrywort, you say “I don’t understand Ms. Wilson’s stance against the WEF when she has also written so strongly in support of the Jews as God’s chosen people.”
Is it because you have been blinded by a belief/ideology/dogma based on false narratives?
The world domination/enslavement plan promoted by the UN, WEF and various oligarchs is not a Jewish plot. If you want to know who is plotting to kill or enslave you, your children and your grandchildren, you need to take a closer look at the European nobility – members of this group have been at it since the Roman Empire fell and they had to regroup elsewhere. While you blame the Jews – they are laughing at you, you are believing exactly what they want you to believe and doing exactly what they want you to do while their plan is coming along nicely (at least in your case). As far as they’re concerned, you’re been a pushover, what some might refer to as low hanging fruit, and you have become putty in their hands.
