WHY THE US HAD TO END THE STRAITS OF HORMUZ BLOCKADE?

In this article I have not dealt with the pulse of capitalism – profits. I have recently provided a number of graphs and tables showing that US non-financial corporate profits are at decades highs and with it the rate of profit. The reason I have not done so, is because it is in the balance whether these profits can be sustained, especially in the face of growing Chinese competition. For example the majority of start ups in the US are using cheaper and more flexible open source Chinese AI software models to save scarce capital, rather than the over-priced but sill loss making proprietary US models such as CHATGPT.
