Tension in the middle east continue to rise but don't expect any major
fireworks. That's the opinion of Lakehead Political Science Expert
Laure Paquette. She says increased naval activity between the US and
Iran is a step above sabre rattling considering they both are moving
large ships into a narrow area like the Straight of Hormuz. Paquette
says she thinks the two sides will soon take a step back and try to come
to a diplomatic resolution to current problems.
