Iran is under attack. Now would be a good time to flex their muscle and stick it to em!
It's their trump card. And we are forcing them to play it. IMHO, NATO will have no choice but to attempth to prevent Iran from closng the straits because western economies cannot stand the stress of an oil price shock. NATO will view Iran's "exercise" as an act of war.
