Do you really think the US wouldn't abandon it in a heartbeat if it became a matter of strategic necessity?

Countries that haven't signed do violate it. Israel prevents ships free transit to the Gaza strip. US does naval blockades and blows up boats.

  • Naval blockades of enemy ports during war are legal, that is what USA and Israel argue they are doing. That is not what Iran is doing, they are blocking fully neutral ships from going in other countries waterways.

    • US at war? We are past the 60 days of for military operation. From US law perspective, it’s illegal. From the constitutional perspective only congress can declare war which they haven’t.
