US Fifth Fleet in Bahrain

The kingdom of Bahrain and the United States of America share interests in each other economically, socially, politically, and militarily.  The geographical location of Bahrain is of great importance to the US, and the whole world knows it.  Nobody knows it better than Iran.  This tyrannical leadership of Iran has made their desires very clear, but the fruition of those desires, for now, have been foiled because of the Bahraini-US relationship.

The placement of the Fifth Fleet in the United States Navy is no accident.  It was strategically placed there.  It was critical that they be there in order to maintain open the Strait of Hormuz.  It's important they are there to bring stability to the Middle East regions that so desperately want it.  The Fifth Fleet keeps the waterways open to trade, something of vital importance to Bahrain and the US.  If goods can not go in nor come out, money is not exchanged, and then production would eventually cease.  

The US Navy Fifth Fleet not only provides physical safety and security to many people, it indirectly provides economic growth to Middle East regions and the US.
