If Iran cut off the Persian Gulf oil to China, they might make a more permanent response than we ever would consider.

“If Iran cut off the Persian Gulf oil to China, they might make a more permanent response than we ever would consider.”For all it’s bluster, China lacks the ability to project power beyond it’s own borders. However, this is changing fast, won’t be too many years before they will be able to do so. China is currently developing a deep water navy, carriers, etc. Definitely on the move...

From your keyboard to God’s ear. China needs to start punching their weight. The Iranians would rue the day they were born if the Chinese hoards (world’s largest army?) showed up on their border.
