China is the big mystery factor in this. They get a large chunk of their oil from Iran. They are also pretty anal about imposing sanctions.
Most likely it will all go the same way diplomatically, even if reluctant. But there is a small chance that this gets handled the wrong way and escalates with China siding diplomatically with Iran. Doubtful however.

It depends on what I'm cooking. Olive oil is almost a must for many Mediterranean dishes. I think canola oil is better for higher temperatures though.

There is almost no chance to avoid war if they try to close the straits.

It would be sweet if China showed up and plopped a couple ships into our convoys (with permission, of course). No way Iran would fire on the US, NATO, the EU, and China. The prudent move then would be for Iran to 1) piss themselves and 2) voluntarily hand over their shite. Being insane backwards-thinking religious primitives, however, they'd probably just hole up inside their borders until our ships went away.

Sanctions against crazy countries only cause them to react in a way to justify war with them.

This sounds like a typical republican jobs program, but it also could make a sitting POTUS looks stronger.

Again, closing the strait is not on the menu for Iran. China gets it's oil from that strait and you don't want a energy starving China pointing it's finger at you... unless you have another Superpower in your pocket.
