I've Been Thinking:

Yesterday the Sunday Telegraph of London reported that England is sending an entire armada to the Straits of Hormuz.

All kinds of ships including battleship and aircraft carriers are on their way to support 25 other nations and their naval presence in the narrow stretch of water through which 20-30% of the world's oil flows.

The British are moving their forces into line with the US and other Western powers as a threat against Iran and as Iran flexes her muscles.

If Iran were to actually move from threat to action and begin to close the Straits, countries would be there ready to act to try to keep that important waterway open.
