Iran and the internet want to be free.

Section 421 and geopolitical plans for blockading Iran:

100 years ago Japan was in expansionist mode. After some time, the USA decided that some blockading would be a good idea. The Greater East Asian Co-Prosperity Sphere had to make a decision. They decided to attack Pearl Harbour. Meanwhile, far to the west, Germany had been making adjustments to the Versailles armistice agreement following World War I which arose from the Ottoman Empire geopolitical adjustments of the interface between Islam and Christendom which had never settled since the Romans at Orange and legions in Londinium followed by Islamic jihad defeat at Tours which led to Genghis getting the upper hand in the Constantinople realm before subsuming China and his descendants arriving in NZ from Hong Kong after escaping Mao who objected to Taiwan being either free, or Japanese, or Chiang Kai-Czech-mated in the Prague Spring ... or something like that ... it has been a long and icky process with somebody and their opponents always wanting to be all bossy and grab the loot for themselves.

Perhaps Section 421 will play a large part in the process leading to 25 September 2020 and the view of history from 25 September 2100, or 25 September 3009. I guess not.

Okay, let's blockade Iran and stop China and Russia supplying petrol. Predator drones should be quite effective and regular fighter aircraft launched from aircraft carriers would do a good job too. Perhaps Russia will put a knight over to the gas pipelines leading to Europe and ask him to shut the valve for a while, trying to Czech-mate the Eurozone. China might refuse to export certain things to the USA such as tyres. There are lots of things that can be stopped and apple carts tipped over in a globalized world.

Will China bomb USA ships in Japan and South Korean harbours?

Will Hong Kong be looking so good?

Decades ago on a month-long residential management training course, we were taught about the Johari Window, which I found interesting.
en.wikipedia.org

Self analysis showed a wide range of personalities with John Holm and myself having very wide open large known-known windows and very tiny unknown-unknown windows. Other people were all over the map. There were about 45 of us on the course.

I wonder what the various parties to the Iranian sanctions process and atomic bomb making processes and geopolitical interactions there and around the world are like in their Johari windows.
