Opening the straight not hard at all

HOWEVER, disabling tankers is down on my list of options to do. Not very efficient and too much unnecessary complications.
Disabling tankers came up in a conversation about the US blockading the straits to keep Iran from shipping oil. After the US declares the blockade, it is likely a demonstration would be necessary -- by disabling the screws/rudder of a tanker.
How? With a torpedo. What torpedoes do our SSNs carry? Mk48.

 
Yes I'm aware of SAVAK, dumbshyte!
I'm aware of more history than you are.
Also that history doesn't have to repeat itself and only does when too few have learned the lessons it can teach.
The Theocracy has outdone the disposed Shah in torture and abuse of their population.
I realize you are another of those Leftists who love tyrants and oppressors, but this time your buddies may be out of a job.
If you are aware of SAVAK Dumbo then you have no excuse, and you clowns know all about loving tyrants you supported some of the worst in central and South America for decades.

The people loved the Shah.

Many did.
But such a range of ethnics and theology, etc.
Rare is the leader who can please all the people, all the time.
The Rise, renew of Islamic Jihad in post WWII World had much to do with changes in Iran by 1979.

I knew more than a handful of Persians who escaped Iran and longed to go back if the Shah ever returned to power.

Yeah, I recall and responding to such got Admiral Rockhead riled.
MK48 is huge and overkill. It was designed to explode under a ship, crack it's keel and break it in two.
Much too messy with tankers, especially if filled with petroleum/oil. Results in ugly pollution, etc.
Here's the link I provided in that response/post;

And your country has an even worse track record, going back centuries.
Hence even less excuse, you dunce.*
You might recall we were one of your earlier of many mistakes, and broke that contact and contract about 250 years ago.

*You'd have better credibility if you dropped the ad homineums and focus on learning some more facts that are real and true.

I am well aware of the crimes of British Colonialism that doesn't excuse the crimes of your Imperialism you dumb asshole.
