"anything is possible", but I see strong resistance at $354-ish.

I think your short strangle makes sense.
I sssume you collected some hefty options premiums, and therefore are
collecting some nice decay everyday.
If you want to buy some shares to protect against and upside break, some
of those listed on the Mug's thread may be good.
Timing War is difficult...
but I do not see it before second half Jan./ too many tactics open to Iraq
to get it sooner IMO
