Losing Control of Strait of Hormuz may be the end of the American Empire, the same way that the loss of Suez Canal marked the end of the British Empire.
The End of America

The Strait of Hormuz may be the end of America.

Professor Ray Dalio, a researcher in the history of empires over 500 years and a manager of billions of dollars, published an article in which he said:

One sentence in it summarizes everything:
“Losing control of the Strait of Hormuz may be, for America, like Britain losing control of the Suez Canal in 1956.”

Before you understand this sentence, we must talk about the year 1956.
Because what happened in 1956 may be repeated today.


1956: The End of Britain

For 200 years, Britain was the superpower of the world.
The British pound was the world’s currency, and its navy controlled the oceans.

The most important point of its power: the Suez Canal.

A large portion of global trade passes through this canal. Whoever controls the canal controls global trade.

In 1956, Egypt nationalized the canal. They said: “It is ours now.”
Britain threatened: “Open the canal or we will come.”
Egypt did not open the canal.

Britain, along with France and Israel, launched an attack.
But what happened, happened.

America said: “Enough.”
The Soviets said: “Enough.”
The United Nations said: “Enough.”

Britain was forced to retreat.

On that day, the world saw something:
Britain was no longer a superpower.

What happened after that?

The British pound collapsed.
Allies distanced themselves.
Colonies began declaring independence.
Capital fled from Britain.

Within twenty years, Britain became an ordinary country.

An empire that lasted 200 years ended because of one canal.

It was not just a canal — it ended because of one perception:
“This country is no longer strong.”

The moment this perception took hold, money fled, allies withdrew, and the system collapsed.

Dalio says: the same thing may happen to America now.


Why is the Strait of Hormuz so important?

20% of global oil supplies pass through this strait.

Saudi oil comes through it.
UAE oil comes through it.
Kuwait oil comes through it.
Iraq oil comes through it.

What happens if the strait is closed?

Oil prices will rise.
The global economy will stop.
Gulf countries will be unable to export.
Europe will face an energy crisis.
Asian factories will shut down.

Imagine it like this:

There is only one tunnel on a highway.
All trucks pass through it — food, fuel, raw materials, everything.

Someone sits at the entrance of the tunnel and says:
“No one passes without my permission.”

This is what Iran is doing now.

Dalio says: if America cannot open this tunnel, everything will change.


Dalio’s Historical Equation

Dalio studied 500 years of history.
He examined the rise and fall of every great empire.

He found a pattern.

The pattern is: things always end the same way.

A superpower controls global money, controls sea routes, and everyone trusts it.

Then a smaller power challenges it on a vital trade route.

The superpower threatens:
“Open the seas or I will invade.”

The whole world watches.

If the superpower opens the route →
its power is reinforced, trust continues, money flows, and the system continues.

If it fails →
everything turns upside down.

Trust collapses.
Allies withdraw.
Money flees.
A debt crisis begins.
The empire collapses.

This is how Portugal ended.
This is how the Netherlands ended.
This is how Britain ended.

Dalio says:

“When great powers sink into debt and show loss of military and financial control, watch how they lose the trust of allies and creditors, lose reserve currency status, and their currency weakens — especially against gold.”

Read that sentence again.

Now look at America.


America’s Situation

Debt: $38 trillion.
Interest payments: more than $1 trillion annually.
A quarter of tax revenue goes to interest.

It lost in Vietnam.
Withdrew from Afghanistan.
Spent 20 years in Iraq, leaving chaos behind.

The world now believes America is no longer strong.

Now it is confronting Iran.


What did Trump say?

“If they plant mines and they are not removed immediately, the military consequences will be unprecedented.”


What does Dalio say?

“I often hear senior politicians in other countries say privately:
‘Trump speaks fluently, but when things get tough, can he fight and win?’”


The Critical Point

Dalio’s most important observation:

In war, your ability to endure pain is more important than your ability to inflict pain.


What are the Iranians doing?

They are trying to prolong the war.
They are escalating it gradually.

Because everyone knows the American public and leadership have limited tolerance for prolonged pain and war.

Iran’s plan is simple:
Make the war long and painful enough — America will withdraw.

This is what happened in Vietnam.
This is what happened in Afghanistan.

For Iran, this war is existential.
It is about revenge.
It is about honor.

They are fighting for something more important than life itself.

What concerns Americans?
Fuel prices.
Midterm elections.

This imbalance terrifies Dalio.


Is a deal possible?

Dalio’s answer is clear: No.

“Everyone knows that not reaching a deal will not resolve this war.”


What comes next?

Whether Hormuz remains under Iranian control or is taken from it,
the coming period will be the worst phase of the conflict.

Iran’s statement:

“All oil, economic, and energy facilities in the region belonging to or cooperating with the United States will be destroyed immediately and turned to ashes.”

This final war is approaching.


Dalio says the outcome of this war will reshape history.

It will not be limited to the Middle East.

Trade flows will change.
Capital flows will change.

China, Russia, North Korea, Europe, India, and Japan will all be affected.


If America wins:

Trust in the dollar will increase.
Demand for bonds will rise.
Allies will align closer.
Trump’s authority will strengthen.
American dominance will continue.


If America loses:

The dollar will collapse.
Bonds will be sold off.
Gold will surge dramatically.
Alliances will weaken.
BRICS will strengthen.
China’s rise will accelerate.


Dalio’s lesson from 500 years of history:

Money and power always flow to the winner —
and flee from the loser.


Conclusion

Dalio says clearly:

The Strait of Hormuz is America’s final test.

If it wins →
its dominance continues, Trump’s power increases, the dollar rises.

If it loses →
the 1956 Britain scenario begins.

The dollar collapses.
Gold skyrockets.
Alliances fragment.
The American era ends.


Five hundred years of history tell the same story:

Empires end when they lose vital trade routes.

Portugal ended.

The Netherlands ended.
Britain ended.

Is it America’s turn?

The answer lies in Hormuz.

Rus ukra war

 RUSSIA UKRAINE WAR (It Changed The USA Forever)


Most people remember February 24, 2022 as the day Russia invaded Ukraine.


I remember February 26, 2022 as the day America pulled the pin on a financial grenade — and didn't realize it was still holding it.


Here's what happened on that Sunday.


The US, EU, UK and Canada made a decision that no one had ever made before at this scale.


They froze nearly $300 billion of Russia's central bank reserves.


Dollars. Euros. Assets held in Western institutions.


Gone. Frozen overnight.


Then they pulled Russia out of SWIFT — the financial messaging system used by 11,000 banks in over 200 countries.


One expert called it "the nuclear option" of global finance.


They called it a sanction.


I called it the beginning of the end of dollar dominance.


Here's what my poor dad would have said:

"America showed the world who's boss."


Here's what my rich dad would have said:

"America just showed every country on earth what happens when you hold dollars."


Think about it.


If you are the leader of any nation — China, India, Saudi Arabia, Brazil, South Africa and you watched America freeze $300 billion of another country's money in a single weekend...


What is the first question that enters your mind?


"Could they do this to me?"


The answer, of course, is yes.


And every central bank in the world knew it.


The result?


Countries stopped buying US Treasury bonds.


They started buying gold instead.


Germany demanded its gold back from US vaults.


India, China, Russia, Brazil — the entire BRICS world began building alternative payment systems to bypass the dollar entirely.


The petrodollar deal, which had kept the dollar as the world's reserve currency since 1974, expired in June 2024.


OPEC refused to renew it.


One date.


One decision.


And the 50-year reign of the dollar was put on a countdown clock.


Money is based on trust.


The moment trust is broken — you cannot go back in time & fix it.


On February 26, 2022 — the US broke the trust of every nation that wasn't already its ally.


They thought they were punishing Russia.


They were actually teaching the world that dollar reserves were not safe.


That was the day the world started looking for the exit.


.

.


Gold. Silver. Bitcoin. Real assets.


Not because I say so.


Because February 26, 2022 already said so.

Just to be clear.

JUST TO BE CLEAR ...

It was Sonny Trillanes and his group – the Samahang Magdalo, which initiated, vetted, and filed the first crimes against humanity charges against Gongdi and his cohorts before the International Criminal Court. Their group hired the lawyer Jude Sabio to provide the cover to ease Gongdi’s pressures on him and the Magdalo.

Trillanes’s difference with Sabio was mainly over money matters. The latter was demanding more money although Trillanes made clear to him that his senatorial term was about to end in 2019. Sabio did not like it and he went to side with Gongdi and Bong Go. He later tried to withdraw the case, which was filed under his name, but the ICC did not agree to its withdrawal.

Trillanes, Gary Alejano and the Magdalo group filed the crimes against humanity charges against Gongdi at a time of great danger. It was the height of Gongdi’s power and his faction of killers were killing people with complete impunity. Even the democratic opposition felt apprehensive because Gongdi's killing ’sprees could extend to the opposition.

Trillanes colleagues like Franklin Drilon, Bam Aquino, and even Leni Robredo, who was the presumptive oppositon leader because she was the highest elected political leader, took distance from his initiative. They did not in any way help Trillanes and Alejano.

Ping Lacson, in his most cowardly way, said his initiative to bring Gongdi to the ICC would be destined to the dustbin of history. JV Ejercito said it was “suntok sa buwan” (or punch to the moon) to demonstrate its near impossibility.

Even the Legal Left came 16 months late to Trillanes effort. While Trillanes filed the first case on April 4, 2017, the Legal Left, as represented by the NUPL, filed its first information on Aug 28, 2018. That was at the time, when its break with Gongdi was complete.
Trillanes and his group started its initiative to bring Gongdi to the ICC as early as August, 2016, when mass extrajudicial killings (EJKs) were reported and increasing. The democratic opposition except Leila de Lima did not do anything.

Now, the Legal Left is highjacking the fight against Gongdi’s war on drugs, as if it was the first to initiate the fight. It has to be asserted they came much later. It is Sonny Trillanes, who did a lot of work for it to flourish and prosper.

He was mocked and called a lot of names like “trililing.” But he has the last laugh. He has taken the initiative to have their “Tatay Digong” go to the prison facility of ICC. Most likely, Gongdi will spend the rest of his life there...

Napocor

𝗡𝗔𝗣𝗢𝗖𝗢𝗥: 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗘𝗹𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗿𝗶𝗰 𝗥𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗿𝘂𝗰𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 (𝟮𝟬𝟬𝟭)

​𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗕𝗮𝗰𝗸𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗿𝘆
​Founded in 1936, NAPOCOR was the giant that lit up the archipelago. It owned the dams, the coal plants, and the thousands of kilometers of transmission lines. However, by the year 2000, it was bleeding money. Inefficient operations and massive "stranded debts" (loans used to build plants that weren't paying off) threatened to bankrupt the entire Philippine government. The solution? Break it apart and sell it to the highest bidders.

​𝗪𝗵𝗼 𝗦𝗼𝗹𝗱 𝗜𝘁?
​The massive shift happened with the passage of the Electric Power Industry Reform Act (EPIRA) of 2001.
​The Architect: 
The law was signed by President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo (GMA).

​The Process: 
A new government agency called PSALM (Power Sector Assets and Liabilities Management) was created specifically to auction off NAPOCOR’s power plants and contracts.

​The Buyers: 
Most of the generation assets were snapped up by Filipino "Power Giants" like the Aboitiz Group, San Miguel Corporation (SMC), and the Lopez Group. The transmission grid was privatized into what we now know as the National Grid Corporation of the Philippines (NGCP).

​𝗗𝗶𝗱 𝗜𝘁 𝗗𝗼 𝗚𝗼𝗼𝗱?

​✅ 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗨𝗽𝘀𝗶𝗱𝗲:
​Debt Relief: 
Privatization allowed the government to offload billions of dollars in NAPOCOR’s debts, saving the country from a total fiscal collapse.

​Grid Modernization: 
The NGCP has invested heavily in stabilizing the national grid, reducing the frequency of massive island-wide blackouts.

​Market Competition: 
Theoretically, having multiple private players (like San Miguel and Aboitiz) prevents a single government entity from being the only source of power.

​❌ 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗗𝗼𝘄𝗻𝘀𝗶𝗱𝗲:
​World’s Highest Rates: 
Decades after EPIRA, Filipinos still pay some of the highest electricity rates in Asia. The promised "lower prices through competition" never truly trickled down to the average consumer.

​Private Monopolies: 
Critics argue that instead of a government monopoly, we created a "private oligarchy" where a few powerful families control the nation's light switches.

​Stranded Costs: 
To this day, a portion of our monthly electric bills (Universal Charge) still goes toward paying off the old NAPOCOR debts that weren't covered by the sales.

​𝗦𝗼𝘂𝗿𝗰𝗲𝘀: 𝗡𝗔𝗣𝗢𝗖𝗢𝗥 𝗛𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗿𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗹 𝗕𝗮𝗰𝗸𝗴𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱; 𝗘𝗣𝗜𝗥𝗔 𝗟𝗮𝘄 (𝗥𝗔 𝟵𝟭𝟯𝟲); 𝗜𝗕𝗢𝗡 𝗙𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗥𝗲𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁𝘀 𝗼𝗻 𝗣𝗼𝘄𝗲𝗿 𝗠𝗼𝗻𝗼𝗽𝗼𝗹𝗶𝗲𝘀; 𝗗𝗲𝗽𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗼𝗳 𝗘𝗻𝗲𝗿𝗴𝘆 (𝗗𝗢𝗘) 𝗣𝘂𝗯𝗹𝗶𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀.

Ukraine did.

WHILE THE WORLD WATCHES IRAN — UKRAINE JUST DID SOMETHING THAT NOBODY IS TALKING ABOUT.

In the last 7 days, Ukraine systematically destroyed nearly half of Russia's oil export capacity.

Not with tanks. Not with soldiers.

With drones.

Here is what happened:

1. March 23 — Primorsk oil terminal. Baltic Sea.

Ukraine hit Russia's chief oil loading port on the Baltic coast.

Satellite images confirmed smoke rising from the terminal the same morning.

Primorsk previously handled roughly 22% of Russia's seaborne crude exports.

Operations suspended.

2. March 25 — Ust-Luga terminal. Baltic Sea.

Ukraine struck again — this time the Novatek terminal at Ust-Luga.

Ust-Luga is one of Russia's largest Baltic ports and a major hub for exporting crude oil and LNG.

A large fire broke out. Visible from St. Petersburg.

Russia's Ministry of Emergency Situations warned residents of "air pollution."

Ust-Luga and Primorsk together handle approximately 45% of Russia's seaborne crude exports.

Both now offline.

3. March 26 — Kirishi Refinery. Leningrad Oblast.

Ukraine hit Russia's second-largest oil refinery — the Kirishinefteorgsintez plant in Kirishi.

800 kilometers from Ukraine's border.

The refinery processes nearly 7% of Russia's total oil — 350,000 barrels per day.

Fires confirmed in primary crude processing units, two storage tanks, bitumen production facilities, and gas fractionation systems.

The plant halted operations.

This was at least the fifth Ukrainian strike on this facility since March 2024.

4. March 28 — Yaroslavl Refinery. Northeast of Moscow.

Ukraine hit again. A large oil refinery northeast of the Russian capital.

Direct hit. Fire confirmed.

Total damage as of today:

According to Reuters, 40% of Russia's crude oil export capacity has been disrupted.

2 million barrels per day are gone.

The most severe disruption to Russian oil exports in modern history.

.
.

Before the Iran conflict began, Russia's oil and gas revenue had collapsed by 50%.

Kremlin officials had warned Putin privately that a financial crisis could hit by summer.

The budget deficit was widening. Reserves draining. The cost of the Ukraine war accelerating.

Then the Iran war started.

The Strait of Hormuz closed.

Oil went from $70 a barrel on February 27th to $108 on March 26th.

Russian crude — which had been trading at a steep discount — suddenly reached near-parity with global benchmarks.

US sanctions on Russian crude were temporarily lifted to calm oil markets.

Russia's oil revenues nearly doubled in a single month.

Putin had won the lottery.

And then Ukraine lit the refineries on fire.

Ukraine is losing territory. Losing soldiers. Running low on weapons.

Russia just got a $100 oil windfall it desperately needed to fund the war.

So Ukraine did the only thing it could.

It went straight for the money.

Not the battlefield. The cash flow.

10 major strikes on Russian energy infrastructure in March alone.

Ports. Refineries. Terminals. Pipelines.

40% of Russia's export capacity — disrupted.

Russia is now considering banning gasoline exports entirely to protect its own domestic supply.
