Yesterday Galrahn posted on the big increase in naval activity in the Middle East - "we find it noteworthy we are in the midst of the largest European naval surge to the Middle East in the 21st century and nobody is talking about it." Yeah, that is interesting. I don't think it necessarily means war. But given the enormous tensions in Lebanon at the moment, it does appear the Europeans will be in a strong position to protect their citizens and interests if war breaks out.
