Closing down the Straits would be considered an international act of war, since closing off the Straits would mean stopping 20% of oil to the world, 19 million barrels a day. I would say it would certainly be a UN issue if it comes to that.A few weeks ago, Iran SAID they were going to close the Straits of Hormuz in response to America's re-imposed sanctions. What is fishy?We know what obama would do -- Preemptive surrender. But what will Trump do?
We know he is opposed to Foreign Wars. Hates them.
Iran has called his bluff, will he respond in kind??
Of course, the only decent news about almost anything comes from the Foreign Press. The American Press stopped being in the news business decades ago --

Iran’s foreign minister has labeled the reported attack on two “Japan-related” oil tankers in the Gulf of Oman as “suspicious,” occurring just as Japanese Prime Minister Abe came to Tehran for major talks. Expressing his misgivings on Twitter, Javad Zarif noted that the incidents on the two vessels on Thursday, one of which had been reportedly struck by a torpedo, had occurred as Abe sat down for “extensive and friendly” discussions with Iran’s supreme leader, Ayatollah Seyed Ali Khamenei.This may have actually been more of a warning to Japan than an attempt to bang the war drum.

Sanctions are also an act of war...
