1. A blockade would be an act of war.
They obviously would want Iran to react first, so I suppose one of those subs would be expendable in Bushworld. Of course, the need to hurry up, the mid-term is coming, need to get the marketing campaign rev'd up.

A flurry of military maneuvers in the Middle East increases speculation that conflict with Iran is no longer quite so unthinkable. Here's how the U.S. would fight such a war--and the huge price it would have to pay to win it

3. Fix your headline. That's a TIME story - not a Raw Story story n/t

5. Then put TIME in the headline, not Raw Story
Doesn't matter where you got it from. It's a TIME story and has nothing to do with Raw Story.

9. It's confusing. A misleading title leads to a reduction of credibility
as well.

11. The linkage was not incorrect. I found it on RAW STORY

and Raw Story linked to Time. I do not patronize CNN or Time. Reduction of credibility. Maybe in some instances. I never said it was a Raw Story article.

12. The implication that it is from Raw Story is in your OP
Caveat emptor, I suppose.

7. Poking the lion to see if he reacts the way they want.
A clear provocation. These people never stop amazing me with their idiotic hubris.

10. They really have no clue. More abuse of our military.
The BFEE knows it has to accelerate plans for world domination, time's running out like Idiot Son said. Bush has one more year to destroy humanity, wonder if he will succeed?
