You're watching too much Mourning Joe. At least 150 Iranian tankers have passed through the blockade in the last 30 days, they're the only ones who know where their mines are. The US is on record saying it will take us 6 months to clear the mines. FAFO.

Yes.
Don't get me wrong. I'm not pretending that ships are sailing though the Strait in the same numbers as they were prior to March, but when it comes down to the root of it, it's nothing more than the fear of "secret mines" and/or "secret missiles" that is standing in the way of ships sailing through the Strait as they were doing prior to March. Iran doesn't have the capability to physically stop ships from sailing through the Strait (IOW "closing" it).
The only "closing" of the Strait, as of currently, is the USA's blockade (and that's targeted towards Iran, not anyone else).

A "fear" of "secret mines or secret missiles" backed up by the firing of REAL missiles and continued severe damage of ships that try to pass thru the Strait.
You are intent on ignoring and lying about the very real harm Iran CONTINUES to do, to ships that do try to transit the Strait.
And yes FEAR, when based on actual strikes is an effective blockade. Companies do not want to lose ships, and their Insurance companies are refusing to insure them if they push thru and take that risk with no peace plan in place.
it is just stupid to ignore and claim that Iran does not have a blockade as it is just fear, when they are actually ACTING against ships. It is like saying the US has no blockade as it is only 'fear' that stops other ships from sailing, as we see some that are still getting past the US, while ignoring that the US is stopping others.
So the only thing the US has done is blockade the blockade and that is FACT,
