So they’re pirates now. Also, trumps reaction reminds me of putin a couple of days before they attacked Ukraine after having moved troops to the border: “we’re not going to attack right now”.

Do we know how far off the coast this was. It's horrible when done in international waters. It's even worse if it's done in the sovereign waters where the ship is flagged.

Iran used to do this sort of thing. Back before we were a fascist dictatorship, we used to oppose it.

I hate him more than most, but this isn't anything worse than what any president would do. It was sanctioned oil being sold on the black market. These tankers specialize in snuggling, even transferring oil to other tankers while in the ocean.

No sir, not "seizing", STEALING or ROBBING are more accurate words. The fucking "Cartel de los pedofilos" did it again.

So the US is basically just Iran now randomly seizing other countries tankers.

Cheeto is doing everything he can to distract his base from recognizing how bad both his domestic and foreign relations policies are.
The next step is an air and ground war in Venezuela.
