Iran War Approaching

The pressure on Iran has driven it to make explicit and public its plan to close down the Hormuz Strait in case of war. According to Tehran Times, Iran plans to hold a war game in the near future to practice its ability to close the strait. The option was always there but no one talked about it because each mention only brought nearer its occurance. Closing the Strait is a casus belli of the highest rank. American soldiers loitering in Fort Hood will shortly start to train for opening up the Straits.

More young American boys dying for oil. Wouldn't it be better to take the trillions we spend on war and use it to achieve energy independence once and for all? Let the Muslims drink their oil. Islam was a spent cause until it was revived with oil wealth.

Imagine boudless quantities of oil gushing from the soil, at no cost. No other energy source can compete with it. Without cynicism, today's wars are almost victimless.

Our navy will liberate both the Falklands and Hormuz!
