That is going to be the one major problem, the one albatross in the ointment about any war with Iran. Oil prices will go mental, and we can barely afford the prices we're paying now...but if one oil tanker gets hit in the gulf then insurance rates go up, carrying costs go up, and the price at the pumps goes up.

Unless OPEC puts a cap on the price in order to prevent massive profiteering...

Yeah, who am I kidding? OPEC, biggest bunch of terrorists outside of Al'Qaeda...
