They wouldn’t do that, right Ron Paul?
The answer, of course, is to seize the other side of the Hormuz straits with requisite adjacent territory to control it militarily.
Seize Elam!

They may be able to do this for about 2 minutes...

I would like to see a Military takeover in thos country until new elections can be held, while they bomb Iran into the stone age (last year, for some of them)
Why don't you just try it, Iran...?
Sorry but I’m not clear what your point is.
We need to send the OWS over to ‘OCCUPY HORMUZ’...
