WAR. It's whats for lunch.

===================================

The news surrounding the Middle East, particularly Iran and Syria, may
come and go in waves, but for the most part it is loud political
grandstanding, jawboning and largely noise.

Or rather, it will be noise until these two catalytic events occur: the
third US Aircraft carrier (CVN-74 Stennis) and the second big deck
amphibious warfare ship (LHA-5 Peleliu), both dispatched as of several
weeks ago with a destination the 5th US Fleet headquartered in Bahrain,
reach their target - the Arabian Sea, located by the Straits of Hormuz
and right next to Iran.

As the following naval update map from Stratfor shows, both are now
within a week of reaching their destination: conveniently so with at
least two weeks to go until the presidential election. Needless to say,
once on location, the naval and airborne support for any offensive
operation, especially those launched during new moon cycles, will be
simply suffocating.
