US media curiously silent on this, Israeli media all over it. Also had been an anti-Iran propaganda push against Iran on CNN of late. My guess? Israeli air raid on Iran within next 3 weeks, US fleet there to pull the jews' chestnuts out the fire if it gets too hot.
I'd heard this as gossip from a naval officer a few weeks back, posted it in general discussion, and it was discounted. Looks as if it wasn't just gossip.

More than twelve United States Naval warships and at least one Israeli ship crossed the Suez Canal towards the Red Sea on Friday, British Arabic Language newspaper Al-Quds Al-Arabi reported Saturday.
According to the report, thousands of Egyptian soldiers were deployed along the Suez Canal guarding the ships' passage, which included a U.S. aircraft carrier.
The Suez Canal is a strategic Egyptian waterway which connects between the Mediterranean Sea and the Red Sea.
According to eyewitnesses, the U.S. battleships were the largest to have crossed the Canal in many years, Al-Quds reported.
Egyptian opposition members have criticized the government for cooperating with the U.S. and Israeli forces and allowing the ships' passage through Egyptian territorial waters.
They said they viewed the event as Egyptian participation in an international scandal, and added that the opposition would not sit with its arms crossed while the country allowed a fleet of U.S. and Israeli military ships to cross.
