I take it you haven't heard the latest? Those ships we heard about entering the region yesterday? They were brought in because trump is going to "blockade the Strait of Hormuz".........................
Live updates: Trump says he’ll direct the US Navy to blockade the Strait of Hormuz
U.S. President Donald Trump on Sunday said the U.S. Navy would “immediately” begin a blockade to stop ships from entering or leaving the Strait of Hormuz, after U.S.-Iran peace talks in Pakistan ended without an agreement. Iran has demanded the right to collect tolls from vessels traveling through the strait, but Trump said no one who paid them would “have safe passage on the high seas.”
https://apnews.com/live/iran-war-israel-trump-04-12-2026So trump claimed he wanted Iran to open the Strait of Hormuz and now he says he is going to close it? You know, the exact same thing Iran is already doing which you claim they don't have the authority to do? So is your claim now that Iran has no authority in international waters but trump does?
Your claim was "As long as Iran continues to insist that they lay claim to international waters". I stated the circumstances were completely different but trying to state that changing the name of the Gulf of Mexico to that of your own country isn't "laying claim to it" will be a very hard box to wiggle your way out of.
After consideration maybe I should have worded this differently concerning the Gulf of Mexico. Trump feels he has the authority to control renaming anything he wants in international waters.
