    Trump may say that Iran is 'mostly incapable', but this extract from today's UK Guardian begs to differ:

    Experts say it will be extremely difficult for the US to reopen the strait through military means alone as long as Iran retains the ability to hit or harass shipping with missiles, drones or small boats.

    My italics.

    Granted, it's hard to know exactly what the actual state of the Iranian navy might be, but I note that the US hasn't sent any 'War Ships' (yet), despite asking other countries to do so...

    “as long at Iran retains the ability”

    ‘nuff said.’
  • Quite.

    For the moment, they seem to be retaining some abilities, at least, but, of course, that may change.
