Iran hit tankers, we hit the coast, the Houthis took a port, and oil's at $100. On the 9/11 anniversary, the Middle East is the one thing America has consistently remembered to bomb for 25 years.

Iran is telling all ships in the Gulf "not to be deceived" by the US Navy. The US Navy has 11 aircraft carriers. It's hard to be deceived by something you can see from space.

Iran's chief negotiator says "the era of proportionate responses is over." That was the era? We must have blinked.

Iran declared a "restricted zone" around the Strait of Hormuz. It's 21 miles wide and carries a fifth of the world's oil. That's a velvet rope across the interstate with a cover charge.
