Seems Iran was allowed to move into Iraq to combat ISIS...

But the whole reversal of the Iran Nuclear Deal has wrought a two front conflict...

Seems really worthwhile.... should result in an excellent return on investment.

In any confrontation there is a chance of things spiraling out of control

That being said, trying to close the Straits of Hormuz is a Double Edged Sword

On the one hand a trump card, on the other a suicide mission

Net result would be that the Iranian military gets annihilated in a massive air campaign

Ergo; Iran doesn't want that war
I guess Iran just carries on with sponsoring terrorism around the world then.
Let's hope it's not a dirty bomb in the US as retaliation for killing their top general.
For legal reasons, we are not threatening to destroy U.S. government property with our glorious medieval siege engine. But if we wanted to, we could. But we won’t. But we could.

All that matters is the Sea Line Of Communication (SLOC) at Hormuz

Indeed, Iran will attempt to retaliate asymmetrically through terrorist proxies : big whoop

Dirty bomb is committing national suicide, they know it

Well let's hope that not too many Americans die for Trump's little tough guy stunt.

Scourge of the British steel, shipbuilding and manufacturing industries.

Why make your own when you can buy cheaper from China.
There is no alternative to globalisation.
