Book Eleven — The Tehran Toll Booth
A fifth of the world's oil moves through twenty-one miles of water, and Iran sits astride it. Forty years of a loaded gun, the Houthi template, the mechanism of the toll itself, who actually pays, the legal battlefield, China's calculated silence — and the diplomatic endgame for a chokepoint that has become a tollgate.
