Israel's Maritime Access and Regional Tensions

Okay guys, let me explain what is going on

because shit just got really interesting

with the situation with Morocco and Spain.

Okay, so what's important to understand is all

roads lead back to maritime access for Israel.

Israel currently has six ports.

Five of the ports transit through the Mediterranean into the Straits of Gibraltar and one,

Eilat, transits through the Red Sea going through the Bab el-Mandeb.

Prior to the Iran war,

Israel was also receiving imports for natural resources like oil and gas through the Straits of Hormuz going through the Red Sea.

So six days after the U.S. and Israel launched a war against Iran,

Iran banned all ships bound to Israel and the U.S. coming out of the Straits of Hormuz.

On June 8th, the Houthis of Yemen joined the blockade and

banned all ships going to and from Israel that transited through the Red Sea and the Bab el-Mandeb,

similar to what happened in 2024 and earlier in 2025.

So now Israel is limited to only one maritime access route through the Mediterranean.

But there is a risk involved because similar to the Bab el-Mandeb,

that is a choke point for the Red Sea and the Straits of Hormuz,

which is a choke point out of the Persian Gulf,

the Mediterranean has a choke point, which is the Straits of Gibraltar, which is controlled by Spain.

Spain is a problem for Israel because they have taken steps to break diplomatic ties with Israel.

Even more important is that they have also restricted armed shipments to Israel because of the Gaza genocide.

Spain barred U.S. military vessels and aircraft-carrying weapons or munitions destined for Israel from utilizing Spanish military facilities like Naval Station Rota and Marone Air Base.

Spain also restricted its airspace and denied use of joint bases Rota and Marone for U.S. military assets linked to operations and strikes against Iran.

So where are Rota and Marone located?

Right on the Straits of Gibraltar.

So if you're Israel and you need to regain control of this access point,

what do you do?

You look for allies who are willing to support your genocide and your war in Iran,

like your Abraham-McCord partner, Morocco.

Then you get your allies in the U.S. government to push to have Swetha and Malala Spanish Moroccan territories re-designated as Moroccan territory

so that you can have greater control over the Straits of Gibraltar. You

even get members of Congress to allocate funding for this endeavor.

But because you need public support from Europeans and Americans,

you orchestrate a fake migrant invasion into Swetha and then you claim that these migrants are reaching Europe and this is a public crisis.

Except the narrative quickly fell apart as footage showed

police, Moroccan police, allowing the migrants in and in some cases inviting them to cross the border.

Reporting showed that these young boys under the age of 20 were encouraged on social media to go to Swetha.

In some cases they were told that the Spanish government wants them to come.

Then, precisely 24 hours later,

the White House releases a statement, The United States has been clear we recognize Moroccan sovereignty over Western Sahara,

and we support Morocco's serious, credible, and realistic autonomy proposal

as the only basis for a just and lasting solution. Any other path prolongs the status quo and is unacceptable.

The urgently needed solution will only bring peace to the region, but prosperity and greater integration for all of Africa.

This dispute must end now, and the United States will continue to drive progress towards that end.

So what does Western Sahara have to do with the Straits of Gibraltar?

Well, it extends Moroccan territory.

It literally makes Moroccan territory from the Straits of Gibraltar all the way down further south. Securing maritime access through that whole region under Morocco,

a U.S. ally, and an Israel ally,

Abraham Accords member,

and a country who has a military security agreement with Israel.

So the moral of the story, boys and girls, is that another weekend passed by,

and we saw another escapade where young boys lost their lives. Fifty-seven were reported to have drowned,

trying to swim to Swetha.

And the U.S. military also reported that we don't have enough destroyers to protect Israel because we've run ourselves into the ground protecting Israel.

So another weekend,

more lives lost,

more military degradation,

all in the goal of saving Israel to continuous genocide.
