Yeah, the oil-price angle is interesting, but the "war premium" on oil is historically short-lived, whereas actual oil sales are frequently done in advance via futures contracts...making a lot of shenanigans superfluous.

Oil prices hit 2007 peaks after Iran seizes sailors
Also, remember that Ahmadinejad has an inflated ego, just like Chavez.
Those guys must get a better "high" messing with Bush/Cheney/Blair than some future administration(s).

If I am not mistaken, the U.S. does not get any of their oil from Iran.
