I guess they want to lose their Navy too!!!

[Flaming Conservative]

But they haven’t done so, have they? I’m told China would suffer the most, if they do.

[RoosterRedux]

My cats and I just voted to leave the Strait of Hormuz open...and we have about as much power as Iranian Parliament does right now.

[cuz1961]

do it do it do it !!!

then iran will collapse economically

and

then the US and our own vast oil reserves will take over being the worlds oil supplier .

win/win

Iran has not had any Internet for days.

How exactly was this alleged vote held?

Where?

When?

Proof?

[marktwain]

Hard to see how this aids Iranian goals.

[volare737]

lol…..The same power the ‘hiding’ Grand High Exalted Mystic Ruler (to quote the Honeymooner) has now.

Glad I filled up on gas today.

Seriously...with 80% of Chinese oil coming from Iran via the strait the towel-heads are going to regret poking the tiger.

[Nervous Tick]

>> do it do it do it !!! win/win

U.S. Navy’s Fifth Fleet is headquartered in Bahrain.

From deep in their underground bunkers. 😉

[blackdog]

Mmmmok....

[Salman]

Just a thought -— Instead of fighting to open the strait, how about drill baby drill?

[PIF]

Iran chooses to piss off every country in the world, making brand new enemies. Genius!

Seriously...with 80% of Chinese oil coming from Iran via the strait the towel-heads are going to regret poking the tiger.

My understanding is that China has built up a multi-year oil reserve.

[grobdriver]

Meh.

I'm sure this was anticipated and we have a couple of battle groups in the straits to maintain free commerce.
