It does indeed sound like a repeat is needed.
But who in the WH can give the leadership necessary for the military to do its job?
Sigh.
An edifying fictional interrogation of a somali skinny who was paid to not steal a ship in Red Sea so it could carry terrorists into Texas. (Not Iranian in this case, but illustrates how the allah snackbars could work together).
The dope flows through ME as you say and the mullahs get their cut (sort of like the moonshiners making sure the local churchs got their cut- everyone’s mouth shut). As you say state security gets their cut and some has to make it to the mullahs.
A “gosh, wish this might have happened”: Sicario: Day of the Soldado How did the ship get to Mexico (like how do Camaroonians end up crossing our border if not sponsored by dopers- heroin or otherwise.
(”You’re fight is with ISIS not me”) Yemen just across the Gulf....

These are clearly acts of piracy. The US could legally seize these ships, detain their officers and crew, and transport them to a neutral third country. Once in dock, they could disable the ship in such a way that it could not be easily repaired.
That’s because we had the Greeks sieze Iranian tankers, and we also did as one apporached Venezuela.
All part of the silly DC world police sanctions game.

Greece seized a Russian crewed Iranian tanker for the US.
DOJ seized four Iranian tankers headed to Venezuala.
Biden would but Trump gave away all our Iran plans. /s
“all we do is send a strongly worded letter in Farsi”
Then the WH would have to hire “calligraphers”, like Obama preferred to call them...
But who in the WH can give the leadership necessary for the military to do its job?
The China spies that own Biden could provide the leadership.
Cannons?
Not allowed under maritime law. In some ports the officials will search your ship looking for weapons.
Even around the African Coast in the Indian Ocean, all ships can do is use “non-lethal” self defense against boarders.
Sloe Joe is NOT going to bomb Iran!
John Effing Kerry’s daughter is married to an Iranian!
Plus, Sloe Joe doesn’t have the cojones to bomb Iran!
[Roger the Sarcasm]
Roger that!
Please see my post #31.
We need to bomb key Iranian oil platforms and Iranian naval assets along with placing sanctions on the Iranian leadership .
We need hostages to trade for those Iran has. The same for Russia.
Time to change our Navy from “The Queens Navy” back to the US Navy of John Paul Jones and Halsey.
I guess oxen from different countries need to get gored.
Nice distraction from this....
