Not that I'm complaining, by why doesn't the US just bomb or board Iran's ships? If they don't want them shipping oil out, then it wouldn't be that hard no?

Maybe, those ships aren't owned by Iran but by China.

Yeah, according to what I have investigated, countries like Iran/Venezuela/Russia usually use shell companies or get support by China to move their oil.

China has a large oil tanker fleet and we have received news that Iran allows friendly countries to pass the Hormuz straight. So it makes sense unless someone corrects this thought.
