Karg Island in the Persian Gulf is considered an economic lifeline for Iran.
More than 90% of its oil exports are funneled through the tiny island.
The buildup of troops heading to the Middle East is fueling speculation that the U.S.
might try to seize and hold Karg Island.
Caitlin Talmadge, a professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, says that would be militarily challenging.
Iran has warned it will launch retaliatory strikes against energy infrastructures in the region if Karg Island is attacked, which could send world energy prices soaring.
