| #9 We have no business there. Iran has had an extensive network in the US planning troublemaking since shortly after the 1979 revolution, Clem. Like so many in the Axis of Evil, we may have no business there, but they have plenty of business here. |

| #8 We have no business there. We phooked it up in 1953. Let's not make things worse. Not our circus, not our monkeys. |

| #4 /\ Besides I don't see a IRAN starting a stink until they know if Acting President Harris takes the reins. Sometime in 2021 I suspect. |

| #3 Don't US Troop in Afghanistan exit flights into India and then conus? Suing the The Eastern side of Iran. The war ships are on the opposite side of Iran on the western border. Yes IRAN wants us out of of Afghanistan as much as the voters want out of this now 19 year old useless but very costly Police action. The only persons really wanting us to stay there are the ARMS Dealers and the Politicians getting big donation/speaking fees or their Families raking in $250K no-show consulting gigs. But either way they Deep State will always find a new "Police action" to apply their bushiness. Besides I don't see a IRAN starting a stink until they know if Acting President Harris takes the reins. |

| #1 Often wondered why ANY military surface war ship would box themselves in to such a well defined hostel controlled area. The narrow entrance and exit is only about 34.5 miles wide choke point at the Strait of Hormuz. Somewhat less at the Iranian controlled island of Qeshm. Opening ANY nations surface warship up to endless attack. |
