      Excerpt

      „WASHINGTON, April 14 (Reuters) – A U.S. destroyer interdicted ​two oil tankers attempting to leave Iran on Tuesday, a day after U.S. President Donald Trump’s blockade went into ‌effect, and instructed them to turn around, a U.S. official said, speaking on condition of anonymity.

      The ships had left Chabahar port on the Gulf of Oman and were contacted by the warship via radio communication, the official said. It was unclear whether any further warnings were given.“

      What can Trump’s navy do, if those ships blatantly ignore him? I really want to know? Especially after he said they should show some courage and just sail on through?

      Iran: „THEY CAN’T INTERDICT ALL OF YOU, GO GO GO. Wait, not you, pay up.“

      I was told by experts on Reddit that everyone would just ignore Trump’s blockade. What happened?

      Hey Iran let ships through!

      Oh you’re not gonna? Well then neither are we! That solves it!

      Good. The Islamic Republic will collapse soon due to the massive financial crisis it is about to experience. This crisis will prevent them from paying the terrorist thugs who are oppressing the Iranian people.

      What will the US do with the ships? Sink them? send a bordering party and what? drag it to an Saudi port? If the ship crew shoots back? Kill the crew?

      Curious what Centcom’s escalation policy is.

      I like to think I’m fairly well educated but I absolutely had to look up what “interdicts” means in this context.
