The Strategy to Re-Open Hormuz - with Nadav Eyal
Episode 480
Wednesday, 18 March, 2026
Subscribe to Ark News Daily ____ Subscribe to Inside Call me Back ____ Can the world’s most powerful militaries reopen the Strait of Hormuz…or is Iran already winning the economic war? Eighteen days into Operation Epic Fury, Iran is increasing its pressure on the world’s energy supply chain. With the Strait of Hormuz effectively under lockdown, oil flows have slowed to a trickle, prices are rising, and the risk of broader escalation is growing. Ark Media contributor Nadav Eyal joins Dan to break down why America and Israel’s military superiority hasn’t been enough to reopen the strait, what Israel’s latest strike on Iran’s energy infrastructure signals, and whether the current campaign is quietly setting the stage for regime change. In this episode: 06:18 – 18 Days Into War: Where Things Stand 12:48 – The consequences of Iran's selective-blockade 14:48 – Can the US reopen the Strait of Hormuz? 20:24 – The World’s Tepid Response 23:24 – Decapitating Iran’s Leadership 26:54 – Is Regime Change the Endgame?
