Iran-USA clash again. While Ahmadinejad prepares to increase fighters that can mount nuclear missiles, Obama has strengthened military bases and aircraft carriers with fighters and new men, in order to prevent Iran from closing the Strait of Hormuz. Furthermore, this would cause quite a few commercial problems, above all for the passage of oil tankers through the Hamuz Strait and the Persian Gulf.
Obama and the Pentagon have thus decided to strengthen their military presence in an area close enough to Iran to be able to thwart a possible attack by Iran against Israel.
In fact, the Jewish state is also preparing for an attack on nuclear power plants to eliminate the danger at its root. The United States does not agree with Israel's warmongering line: in fact, this increase in planes and troops has a triple value: to keep Iran under control, to protect the tankers and to "look after" Israel. But Obama hopes in negotiations with Iran because a war now would mean more military spending that America cannot afford.
