Iran has been trying to evade sanctions and continue selling its oil abroad, while the U.S. and its allies have been seizing cargoes since 2019 after the country’s nuclear deal allowing the trade collapsed.
You misspelled “since 2019 when Trump blew up the only good thing that the US has done in the middle east for God knows how long.”
I agree Trump blew that up. That being said sanctions are the tool if the day now I guess. And if you don’t enforce them, what is the point? Unless people want the US to send in troops.
Unless people want the US to send in troops.
Oh yah that went real well for them in Iraq and Afghanistan.
People are suggesting sanctions are theft so I am not sure what is left.

Literally high seas piracy.
And when Iran retaliates the US media reports that Iran seizes American cargo ships for no reason.
When the government does it, it’s not illegal.
Also if the government allows a private entity to do it, it’s not piracy, it’s privateering.
No, this is called letter of Marque, distinct from piracy 🏴☠️
How else would you suggest to enforce sanctions? Our are people suggestion the US send in troops? Our does the world just support these regimes?
Sanctions are siege warfare.
Thanks for the definition. So what is your solution or does the world just trade with these nations regardless what they do?
It’s pretty clear I think all sanctions should be ended. All sanctions ever do is hurt the people.
“Solution”. There isn’t a way for us to force Iran to change. That has to come from within. Sanctions don’t do that - siege warfare just forces everyone in Iran to hunker down and endure Western aggression, with the poorest being hurt the worst. The solution is peace.
So keep trying and keeping those governments in power and wealth. Makes sense.
The decision to withdraw from the nuclear deal with Iran was a significant error on the part of the United States.
Thieving americunts.
