The U.S. Can Destroy Targets in Iran All Day — It Can’t Control the Strait of Hormuz Is America getting ready to quit the Iran War and not end up controlling the Strait of Hormuz? Doing so would indicate a major shift in U.S. priorities. In fact, leaving the conflict without full strategic control would raise questions about the basic merits of Operation Epic Fury.
