Oh they haven't? India-Pakistan conflict did not happen then. The Cuban missile crisis didn't happen either. I guess the US hasn't been trying to kill Iran's nuclear program with drone bombings and assassinations either.

I'd say open a book, but I don't think you have the capacity to benefit from it.

US policy at the time was that a quarantine was obviously not a blockade and thus not a declaration of war. Obviously.
