If there is a worldwide financial collapse due to the Strait of Hormuz

continuing to be closed, then the World should blame Netanyahu and Trump. Not just Trump.

Netanyahu is determined to keep bombing Lebanon, killing civilians, and keeping the land. Iran made this campaign part of its pre-agreement of understanding.

Trump can't and won't control Netanyahu. The Strait will remain closed.

Oil reserves are nearly depleted all around.

When you pay $6.00+ per gallon gas, blame both of them.

lay a great deal if the blame on the ass-clownish American electorate. Is it fair to so lay the blame on the Israeli electorate as well, or is that problematic to say?

the dastardly evil duo of Bibi and Pedo Don began their campaign of terror, destruction, and the wonton slaughtering of innocents. While the leadership in Iran is a major threat to harmony in the regional and world peace, let's not deflect from crediting the real villains in this most recent conflict.
