      I don’t think the military ships are going to be within range. They’ll draw a wide parameter and will use satellites and long range weapons to enforce the blockade.

        Oh hey, quick question. Did you know that Iran sells most of its oil to China? Guess what would happen if the Burger Reich tried to interdict Chinese ships. China will simply stop selling essential things to you like they did during the tariff war, and then daddy is going to have to beg Xi for forgiveness again so your economy doesn’t collapse.
