Two oil tankers hit in Gulf of Oman

No offense, but have you been asleep since last January?

There is no idea that is too crazy or too circular-firing-squad for the current administration to implement.

I wouldn't put it past the current administration but apparently they got significant pushback from oil companies who stand to lose a lot of $ if that is implemented.

@Flash I was on the Fifth Fleet Mine Warfare Task Force when I posted that. The only thing it got wrong was it ending quickly. Instead we're in locked in this protracted conflict.

For a theoretical conflict they got a lot of things right, much more than the usual postulating about such things.

And the war continues, kinda, with 8 Marines injured in an Iranian attack on a 'non-commissioned commercial vessel' on 14 September.
 
We kidnapped Maduro and the DoD is funding part of our nationalization of Venezuela's oil reserves. I wouldn't take anything off the table..
This is the worse part. Had Trump allowed elections and set Venezuela on a good path he might have earned some good will, but he simply made the kind of Banana Republic money grab that fueled Smedley Butler’s protests.
