Securing America: Iran Tensions Grow

A war of words between Iran and the U.S. continues, over a critical route for the world’s oil supply.

FOX News Radio’s Jared Halpern reports from Washington:

Securing America:

The Strait of Hormuz, a narrow channel between Iran and the United Arab Emirates is used to transport 15 million barrels of oil every day. ?So if Iran were to block all or even a portion of the strait’s shipping lanes, energy prices would spike.

Nuland: “We’ve seen quite a bit of irrational behavior from Iran recently.”

State Department Spokesperson Victoria Nuland following threats from Iranian Admirals about closing the strait if fresh sanctions are slapped on Tehran. ?A Senior Iranian Commander warning the U.S. is in no position to give orders to Iran about the strategic strait.
