Due to war, now all Muslim countries welcome the new pipeline through Israel.
I think it's interesting that China didn't do more to protect their oil supplier, but perhaps it's because it was not important enough.
All what I know is that Israel wont stay silent and watch Turkey reap all the benefits from a war that Israel startedAt the moment there is no such physical project. But there is the will and a project in the hands of Qataris and Turks.
Discussions to revive the long-stalled Qatar-Turkey gas pipeline project have resurfaced following significant political shifts in the region, particularly after the fall of the Assad regime in Syria.
Before Syrian war, it was the main project of Turkish and Qatari sides. But the war in Syria put the brakes on it. (It is rumoured that Saudis and UAE were against this project at the time)
Recently Turkiye, Qatar and Jordan have been meeting to bring the project back in to life.

Turkey proposes Iraq oil pipeline extension as Hormuz crisis bites
Turkish energy minister says Iraq could transport half of its oil exports through Turkey if it extends Kirkuk pipeline to Basrawww.middleeasteye.net
Nothing is impossible if there is a will.
Which ally did US lose so far? I don't see any. All Arab countries are interested in weakening Iran, they just afraid to say that openly.The United States is rapidly losing its allies, and not just in the region. At this rate, by the end of Trump's presidency, America will have only one ally left in the entire world: Israel. Tel Aviv has already proposed to Washington that it move all American military bases from Arab countries to Israel.
In my opinion, the trend is such that the United States will have to leave the Middle East. For America, this is simply a loss of influence, but for Israel, it is very dangerous.
Do the Israelis understand this? Of course they do. But the people in power there now are radicals, religious radicals at that, just like in Iran.
Is it really so difficult to understand that, while in conflict with all neighboring Arab countries, it is unreasonable to fight a non-Arab country located 1,000 kilometers away—for example, Iran?It's impossible! Even with the most powerful country in the world as an ally, which is located 10,000 kilometers from the theater of operations. But these guys have gone so far in their madness that they're even threatening Türkiye.
This, of course, is dangerous, first and foremost for Israel itself.
But Trump can wander around the region a little longer, and when he gets tired of it all, he'll retreat beyond his beautiful ocean.
And then what?
Piracy is what Iran is doing. Blockade is 100% legal method of warfare.
How its admission to loss?
Iran depends on Hormuz much more than anyone else. Ironically the biggest losers are Iran and Qatar aka MB aka Hamas
Nobody knows blockade better than him.
How dare you call it piracy?
So now we wait for US ships to start sinking in the SoH...?US Central Command announced that the United States will begin a naval blockade of all vessels entering or leaving Iranian ports on April 13 at 10:00 a.m. ET.
Continuation of the bombing is unlikely due to the risk of further destabilization of the region and the US president's reluctance to become involved in protracted military conflicts.
According to the Wall Street Journal, Trump may also impose a temporary blockade of the Strait of Hormuz, while simultaneously pressuring allies to implement a long-term military escort mission through this seaway.
Brent crude futures for June delivery jumped 7.8% in early trading on April 13, reaching $102.60 per barrel, according to data from the London-based ICE Futures exchange.

What other allies, besides Israel, did you see alongside the United States during the 40-day war? Didn't you see Britain's reaction to Washington's request to send its fleet to clear mines in the Strait of Hormuz? Don't you see how the rest of Europe, led by Germany, either refuses to join the United States and Israel or simply remains silent? Do you know how many weeks ago Charles de Gaulle began his "decisive" campaign in the Middle East, and where is he now?
Didn't the United States' European "allies" close their airspace?, which offered its assistance to the United States. Well, that's not serious...China been preparing for this scenario for decades. Maybe deep down they wanted something like this so they can justifiy so much of their green energy investments and EV.
No,the blockade will be only on the Iranian ports.
Port blockade is a legal act of warfare.How dare you call it piracy?
Its only piracy when others do it,the US can do whatever it wants,its love!!!
They refuse to do anything when Russia openly threatening them. What do you expect to do them against Iran? And I don't think they are capable to do anything even if they were willing.What other allies, besides Israel, did you see alongside the United States during the 40-day war?

There's no point in listing them all. Where are the Japanese and Korean fleets? They're nowhere near the United States either.
The only exception is Estonia
And then there's Uganda, whose Chief of the General Staff promises, if necessary, to take Tehran in a week with his 500,000-strong army
Clearly, the US and Israel are left alone.
In this sense, in my opinion, the situation will only get worse.
