The Suez Canal the Strait of Hormuz and the Strait of Gibraltar are important because they?
All three of these point are along a pathway that oil tankers take to ship to the USA. Without the Suez Canal, tankers would have to travel around the cape of Africa. These three places are geographic choke-holds in which the US does not own these areas, but if they are shut down it would cost loads more to ship around Africa.
