"if they want anything they use to block it to be destroyed. Any ship they use to do so will be sunk, and any missile launchers they use to do so will be destroyed."

That is all true. But just the threat of attack on commercial ships, via missiles, subs, or mines,
is probably going to be enough to make the owners of these commercial ships take a pause in passing thru the Strait of Hormuz. Looked at it on a map, looks like a very easy area to inflict
damage on any commercial ship passing thru. I hope it doesn't come to that. It'll be an ecological disaster if an oil tanker springs a leak in that confined area. And we can be 99% sure that gas prices are going to spike here, even if no attacks occur.

Sure are a lot of roadblocks Trump is setting up for the American economy.
Tariffs, potential war in middle East, Big Ugly Bill that will throw millions off
of Medicaid, and eliminate ACA subsidies, and the despite these cuts the BUB will still balloon the deficit, war still ongoing in Ukraine, masked men kidnapping Americans off of the streets of our Cities............................
