If we assume everything you say here is true, why is the US in such a bind with reopening the straits? The risk of Iran behaving exactly like this has been understood for decades.
The attack was not a a wise, measured move.

I did initially, then decided it wasn't.
I'll go recalibrate my detector!
Where is the proof that Iran was going to attack the US? I mean real proof and not just saber rattling.
