Interesting to see how the information war is shaping up in this multi-faceted mess.

From my estimates, in a day or two the "day of decision" will come at sea when the two Iranian freighters are close enough to the Saudi and Egyptian picket for something to give.
Aside: I wonder if the Fifth Fleet can account for all of the Iranian submarines in the OOB. Were I the Iranian naval commander, I'd ask for a sub to go along with the flotilla escorting the freighters ... it's good to have a hole card.

Not sure how much that maritime stuff influences what's going on shoreside, near term ...
