I'm not so concerned about when they "hang around" the straights but with the fact that they have to transit the Straights on entering and leaving the Gulf. Those transits are very predictable and obvious Also the super tankers that are perceived as our Achilles heel in this area must make that same transit, so it is a rather obvious target for our enemies.
What concerns me is what is possible, from their point of view. Not likely. Not logical (from our viewpoint). But only what is possible.
LOL..at the same time that Fox News is having a special about what would happen in America if we let the Hollywood types run our country...
I turn over to the Academy Awards..and see a woman singing a song, with words popping up on a screen behind her about saving fuel....and clean air...and save the world...
THEN, out comes Algore and Leonardo DiCaprio onstage...to give a SPEECH about global warming.
It is just too perfect to have both scenes on at the same time!!!
