#10  Sorry, admiral, but I bought the Persian Gulf from a reputable antiques dealer in the French Quarter several years ago for $25US. But you can have it if you want -- the liability insurance premiums are killing me.

#2  #Iran’s #IRGC navy commander claims the Persian Gulf belongs to Iran, and that Iran has the right to question any vessel that enters the Straits of #Hormuz

What could possibly go wrong with that notion?
