BlockBeats News, May 4th, US Treasury Secretary Bennett, in an interview with Fox News, said, "If the Iranians want to escalate, we are also willing to escalate. This is a test for Iran - but it is just a group of ragtag pirates. The mosquito navy is being completely wiped out. Many ships, possibly as many as double digits, have been destroyed, and the United States, we only retaliate when under attack."
Bennett also said that the US is opening the Strait of Hormuz, which is a humanitarian operation. "Many countries have come to me, some of the poorest, some of the most fragile, they ask us to do this because there is not only energy there, but also fertilizer, food transport, and liquefied petroleum gas for cooking for over a billion people in India," Bennett said.
