Obviously American ships can freely interdict tankers once they pass the strait. They're kind of sitting outside the strait right now actually.
If you exit the strait, you're still near Iranian waters. Also, I question the extent to which Murica can "freely interdict" Chinese ships, or whether they want to interdict Indian ships.
Our fleet is parked there. The Iranians aren't doing anything about it.
As far as I know, they tried approaching the Iranian coast but were then fired upon, so now they're staying well clear of it.
You have no idea what's happening now.
You know you don't have to approach the coast to interdict ships, right?
You may freely question.
The question was posed to someone with sense, not you.
Your question was rhetorical, not posed to anyone. And the situation hasn't arisen yet. It'd be nice if it never does because this gets resolved before it comes to that, but somehow I doubt that will happen.
