I keep saying the US should "leave right now" but have I really thought about how this would work? Have I considered the consequences? I have.
Initially Iran will continue with their tolls. They are not the only country who charges a toll like this. They will discriminate against the US and US allies. But, over time they'll want tolls from us too.
More importantly with the US gone Iran can't attack gulf states, US bases or anything anymore.
