Ahmadinejad challenging Obama using the Strait of Harmuz. Iran’s de facto declaration of war by suggesting potential closing the Strait of Harmuz.

Iran’s suggesting Harmuz closure, tantamount to declaration of war! Another Ahmadinejad challenge to Obama: “Put up, or…”

Suggesting twice in two days that it is capable of closing the Strait of Hormuz, and that it can inflict damage to civilian shipping, is tantamount to declaration of war against the United States, its allies, the Arab oil produces of the Gulf, and the rest of the world.

The Ahmadinejad regime put President Obama and his cohorts on notice that it does not either respect, or fear him, his country, and his allies, another challenge to the young American President to act.

The Iran pronouncements could be a two-edged sword, the first to display to the world how inept President Obama at participating in the international arena. The other side, however, is an opportunity for Obama to rebuff all Iran’s attempts and prove him a world leader of significance. The second is an opening for Obama to beef-up the 5th Fleet in the Gulf and made it known that said fleet is equipped with nuclear armament, and delivery systems that can reach any spot in Iran that it chooses.

In order to demonstrate a true United States resolve, President Obama may also arrange for joint naval military exercises with the Israeli navy in the Gulf, Egypt already made it possible for Israeli submarines to go through the Suez on their way to the Gulf.

If President Obama does not take positive action in face of Iran’s pronouncement about closure of the Strait, the American President will again prove that the United States is nothing but a paper-tiger, and that he, Obama, is totally incapable as a participant in international diplomacy and politics.
