"26% of the world’s oil supply moves through the Strait of Homuz. With Trump widening the war on Iran, the price of oil will rise even more."

One can suspect reasonably that Trump's widening of the war on Iran has as its purpose some way to enrich his family.

Trump interest is to stop the war soon and declare success. Otherwise he would be loosing popularity. High oil prices would decrease his popularity even more.

Same for Iran, war is not in their interests. Only Isreali gov. may want to continue.
