re: #90 chicagodudewhotrades

A couple weeks ago the Iranian Foreign Minister made a comment about Bahrain being the “16 province” of Iran. It turns out that he walked back from that comment and the rest of the Gulf has made it more of a story than the Iranians have. But that comment got me thinking about Iran actually invading the place. Their economy is in the toilet due to low oil prices and they got elections coming up this summer. Nothing like a invasion to get the folks to ‘rally around the flag’ and get their minds off economic issues. My idea probably isn’t going to happen, but this could be that ‘test’ that Biden talked about. If something like this did go down, I do wonder how Zero would deal with it?

Considering that the US Fifth fleet is based in Bahrain, I would venture that even the Mullahs aren’t that stupid.
