The president added that he has “instructed our Navy to seek and interdict every vessel in International Waters that has paid a toll to Iran. No one who pays an illegal toll will have safe passage on the high seas.”

    I’m not saying it makes sense now. I’m just saying that if they reacted quickly enough they wouldn’t allow Iran to set up toll booth and use their territorial waters to redirect traffic.

    If Iran had to decide to have it completely blocked or open it would make it a less powerful card.

    At this moment pretty much only Iran is expecting oil and Don Tzu even removed sanctions so they can sell their oil to anyone at market value.
