Arab intelligence agencies tell European countries that Irans military is ready to close Strait of Hormuz if nuclear talks fail. - Ch. 10
now we’re talking!!
Send In Jesse Jacksome!!
That action wouldn’t end well for Iran...and they know it...so it won’t happen.
Sure they will try
With a crippled or sunken supertanker or a US nuclear powered aircraft carrier, as they have been practicing
But wait, they PROMISED John Kerry they wouldn’t do that if we give them everything they demand and ignore their threats as bluffing!
Yeah, whatever, the 6th Fleet is at Bahrain. I doubt they would just sit back and let it happen..
Remember who their CnC is.
Doesn’t that all depend on who defines fail?
My response would be: “We begin bombing in five minutes.”, but unlike President Reagan, I would not be joking.
And this without nukes!
Imagine the blackmail if they already had them.
And our idiot in chief wants Iran to have them.
I couldn’t imagine Iran has the military capacity to close the Strait of Hormuz if the US Navy attempted to stop them from doing so, but given that a gutless community flippin’ organizer is occupying the Oval Office I definitely have my doubts that the US Navy would even try to stop them.
For all we know BHO made have negotiated a secret side agreement with them that the US Navy won’t interfere if they try to do so.
Uh that was scary like 15 years ago but you see now there’s this kind of glut thingy going on with oil . . .
Some years ago Qadaffi closed the Suez Canal with a couple of mines dropped off a nondescript RoRo vessel
All it takes to close a strait is to make shipping traffic uninsurable
Golf. It’s the least destructive thing Obama does.
Iranians see Obama and Kerry as weak negotiators.
Are they bluffing or will they act. If they act, how will Obama respond?
Popcorn Theater.
FRACK BABY FRACK !
This will help the fracking industry here in America.
The 2nd oil boom revolution.
Let the Chinese clear the straits.
You are correct. Make Middle East oil irrelevant. We might have to do something about our globull warming mongers first.
A fatal mistake on their part. Remember two things: Israel has already said this deal is a threat to their existence and they already have the bomb. Mix those two and Iran has a problem.
