The original ship channel was in Omani waters, not Iranian. It is entirely unreasonable to consider it reasonable for Iran to mine Omani waters.

It is reasonable for Iran to do things that hurt the US (and the world) when the US hurts them.

Yes

> (and the world)

It is not the world. Only Israel, USA and their direct allies are explicitly banned. Most of the world is not.

		They shot at neutral ships when they closed the strait, where do you get your info from? If it was just USA and Israel and Nato even then you'd see a ton of ships go through and the world wouldn't be very affected, since almost all ships that go through the strait are not Nato aligned.
