Syria-Lebanon-Iran
High-Stakes Poker in the Persian Gulf

There may be more to IranÂ’s seizure of 15 British sailors than meets the eye.

Opinion piece by Mario Loyola at NRO, noodling on possible connections between the seizure of RN personnel, Iran's nuclear ambitions and yesterday's events at the UNSC. Final paragraph:

So, long story short: It wouldnÂ’t surprise me if the British sailors were detained because the British did something to make the Iranians really angry. Khamanei dramatically upped the ante this week. We probably raised. And they probably raised back. The stakes in this nuclear-poker game just got a little higher.
