'The other countries' are constructs of western imperialism...as is nearly all of the middle east and Africa...specifically constructed and designed to enable resource hegemony over them. Iran has dared to challenge that model and practice self determination since in 1979 it ousted the puppet regime installed by the CIA and MI6 in 1953.
What about war reparations?
USA and Israel invaded a sovereign nation in contravention of international law- seeking to seize Irans natural resources and along the way threatening to wipe out Irans entire culture. Iran estimates a minimum of $270 billion in damage to its infrastructure. This surely at the minimum deserves reparations to be paid.
The British Empire only finally lost its monetary dominance as a result of the Suez canal conflict with Egypt when USA refused to back the British attack on Egypt after Egypt nationalised the Suez.
Most of the world is now looking on and seeing the USA as an unreliable and increasingly desperate declining power...of declining value as a strategic partner let alone ally. Nobody wants to assist in the Hormuz blockade because it comes after such a series of war crimes and blatant disregard for international law and common decency.
The Blockade of Hormuz could be Americas Suez canal crisis- the end of its global hegemony.
