Travis -- that is a consequence not discussed in my post. But ... Kuwait, UAE, Saudi(?), Iraq, Bahrain ought to be able to pump enough to cover any shortfall due to loss of Iranian crude. We could have the Iranian offshore wells/ platforms back up in 120 days.

The other prime targets are not sources of oil.

But bottom line, winning this is more important than a near term disruption in the flow of oil from Arabian peninsula.

It's not exactly a win if the world economy is thrown into a depression, which I think would happen.
