LOS ANGELES (OC).--Oil price spiked today to over $100 a barrel with gold sliding again another $80 to $4,800 an oune showing the kind of uncertainty from the Iran War. President Donald Trump has apparently rejected Iran’s peace plan brokered in Islamabad for the U.S. to remove its blockade on Iranian ships in exchange for Iran opening up the Strait of Hormuz.  Trump finds Iran’s peace plans unacceptable because they don’t involve a permanent resolution to the nuke deal where Iran wants to reserve its rights to enrich...
