So where are the carriers? Oh wait Obama has the crews busy undergoing sensitivity training so they can't be bothered to actually worry about freedom of navigation or such.

DJIA is up 120.34 (10:13AM EST). So the money changers are not seeing this as a problem.

Iran closes the Straights and the Occupiers close our ports. In both cases it should call for a response from our military.

Rumors. Actually, it’s not theirs to close. We have our navy nearby.

Actually this is Ahmedinijad taking advantage of Obama’s weak posturing while begging for our drone back.

I love the where are the carriers map. Thanks for the link.
One other note. Is there a way to get oil to China without going through the straights. Cut of the Chi-coms from Middle East oil and the PLAN may be breaking the blockade before Obama can get off the golf course.

I feel badly for the Persian people. They need to be freed from the scum that has imprisoned them.

No doubt. O’Zero has our military studying the likes of Harvey Milk and RuPaul, versus Napoleon, Rommel and Alexander the Great.

Iran seized our plane.
Seize an Iranian ship. Two in fact. Sink one, and trade for the other.
Appeasement is not a strategy.

NEW YORK (Dow Jones)—Crude futures were treading water in early trading Tuesday, after recovering from Monday’s loss overnight.
Light, sweet crude for January delivery recently traded 74 cents, or 0.8% higher at $98.51 a barrel.
There were several reports seemingly important to the oil market, though little seemed to gain traction, from Iran’s military exercises in the Strait of Hormuz, a key Middle East oil shipping channel, to OPEC reducing its forecast for 2012 crude demand, citing the potential for global economic decline.
