Now, why would China want to help to open up the Straits of Hormuz. Chinese vessels carrying oil are still passing the Straits of Hormuz, unmolested. China is not suffering. China and Russia are quietly celebrating the crippling of the USA military bases by the Iranians in the Middle East.
China and Russia are taking notes and learning from the Iranian experience over how to defang a mad dog. First take out the radar installations guiding those patriot missiles and interceptors. With the patriot and THAAD batteries shooting almost blind already, Iran can then take out those military targets and important strategic assets. Any retaliation will be met with equal retaliation, knowing that Iranian missiles can now target infrastructures and any interceptors fired will be exhausting the manufacturing capability of the Military Industrial Complex.
Aircraft carriers are no longer a projection of strength going forward, to enable the USA to launch fighter jets near to enemy strongholds. There is now a genuine fear of aircraft carriers being taken out by anti-ship hypersonic missiles, developed just for this purpose to negate the ability of aircraft carriers to project power.
History is in the making resulting from a war between 20th century aircraft carrier power against no power projection needed by just using hypersonic missiles and drones. Not even needing an expensive air defense force or a naval defense force. So much cheaper, so effective and so detrimental for the invaders.
Oh, not to forget, it also provides learning experience for China regarding it BeiDou effectiveness, plus free testing for Chinese hypersonic missiles and drones. Pakistan and Iran have done China a favor by testing its weapons for friendship's sake.

The Europeans are now realizing that Iranian missiles are capable of reaching NATO Europe, with the Iranians having already tested Diego Garcia. The UK claims that Iran does not have missiles to reach London, just a couple of hundred kilometers further than its recent 4,000-kilometer missile. I can see that the UK is worried, having now been involved in the war.
Now, would the other Europeans, just like the UK, join the USA to provide warships to keep the Straits of Hormuz open to traffic? Remember that Iran will be there forever, while their warships cannot be stationed there permanently, with logistical supplies needed all the time. Even shitting becomes a problem like the USA aircraft carrier, Gerald R. Ford, when at sea for too long.
Now, talking about the aircraft carrier, Gerald R. Ford, having a laundry fire that took 30 hours to put out. What kind of a laundry fire was that and how did it spread supposedly via ducts. Sounds unbelievable. Or was there some other reason being covered up using laundry cloths. Some are saying sabotage by crew could be the reason. The aircraft carrier had been at sea for almost nine months and crews are unhappy and facing a 'real' war in the Middle East.
But take the propaganda as just well, propaganda, which I sometimes find it very difficult to digest. You can fool most people most of the time, most people some of the time, but not all people all the time.
The rainbow warriors are running out of cosmetics and need replenishment. The American boys and girls want to see their mamas. They have no reason to want to die in the Middle East.
Countries that are determined and strong enough to defend and die for their nations are willing to fight and die for their descendents!
Likewise the PRCs and the Iranians and North Koreans being harassed and bullied for decades!
Americunts and their cowardly paid soldiers would want to live another day to also see their own.
Just a stint or two in hoping to attack some weaker countries and returned to have their BS Veterans benefits.
So this is the difference
Who's has the Wills?
Lindsay Graham wants USA to occupy Kharg Island. Iran will use those USA boys and girls occupying the island for target practice. The military logistics guarding the installations have been destroyed by the USA. Now, what works for the USA can also be made to work by the Iranians if the USA is to set up a defense shield on the Island.
Examples are North Korea, North Vietnam and Afghanistan. Next good example will be Iran.
Not every country is like Venezuela, ok.
