Dear Belly,

Who do you mean by 'both sides will support our Navy getting involved'? Do you mean both the US and China? I don't think so! What we are watching might turn out to be the makings of World War 3. WW1 was a conflict over empire building; WW2 was due to the handling of Germany by the victors of WW1; and WW3 will most likely be all about the struggle between the US and China over control of the world economy.

What do you think ScuMo will do?

Dear Belly and Mr Opinion,

I have no idea what our PM is going to do.

If I had to guess, I'd say he's going to support
the decision of the US and we shall get involved
in Iran if the US asks us to.

But we'll have to wait and see.

I'd like to Thank everyone who contributed to
this discussion. It seems that it is running
out of steam.

I look forward to our next discussion.

Enjoy your day.

Mr Opinion Foxy to clarify it is my view Labor and the government will support the proposed call it blockade
But both will do it as part of the English contribution
Because they do not want to get China offside
Too that the bitter [maybe with some justification]
Iran leadership must be stopped
I am not convinced Trump canceled that deal for any sound reason
Iran however has by its actions gone too far

What do you think ScuMo will do?
Mr Opinion,
What would YOU do ?
I would support joining forces to keep the oil flowing & those against it can get their oil/products somewhere else at their cost !

You are all ignoring the most powerful actor in this game.
The Insurance companies.
They will decide if ships use the Strait.
If they say NO ! Then we all starve.
All except the US. They have enough of their own, they do not use ME oil.
These are the rules of the game.
