Al Jazeera is asking whether there are enough oil reserves to withstand a war that has already been fought for two months. Brent is at $113, up 81% annually, after dozens of ships were attacked in the Strait in October alone. The question isn't reserves — it's whether markets are correctly pricing a protracted closure of the world's most critical energy chokepoint.
