Another reason Tehran will be the ones to determine when this ends is because the straits are not actually closed. They are just closed to Americans and their allies. So countries have to negotiate with Tehran if they want safe passage, not Washington.
Trump keeps making grand declarations with zero ability to enforce them.
@sree251 Lets not forget the 150+ mostly school children Trump's directed actions have killed because of a bomb that was 'incorrectly targeted' and that Mr Trump denied having any knowledge about. Killing innocent children is the evil thing about any so-called 'war'.

The US missile attack on Minab school was a ‘double-tap’ strike.
A “double tap” refers to two strikes on the same target in quick succession, the first intended to hit the primary target and the second aimed at those who arrive to assist victims or respond to the initial blast.
Iran may be in very bad position as well, nobody knows if they last or how long.
Iran has always been in a bad position and put there for the past 47 years by US sanctions. They will last as long as it takes. The question is how long will the Americans - serving in US bases, embassies, and navy ships - last.
Wouldn’t it be simple to have China dig out the land around the strait thereby making the strait vast using use the dirt to build more min islands around Taiwan?
China of course. They have the equipment. They have the ships, they want the direct. They know how to build islands. However they don’t get Iran’s oil out of the deal. We do. @sree251
