The US government seized nearly 1 million barrels of Iranian crude oil allegedly bound for China, according to newly unsealed court documents and a statement released by the Department of Justice on Friday.
Just because you want something to be true, doesn’t make it so. Iran did not agree to be sanctioned.
You should take your own advice with this statement.
Therefore, any “laws” the United States implements is illegal.
Factually false. You operate in the US or with US companies you’re agreeing to be bound by our laws. Don’t like it? Use non-US or non-US-allies companies.
The owner of the ship is ancillary.
Here’s where you should apply your own logic: “Just because you want something to be true, doesn’t make it so.”
I wonder if you would defend China so vociferously if they played the same game with America? I don’t think you would.
I weep for the people of Hong Kong. China is systematically stripping them of their representation. However, Hong Kong is part of China. Its Chinese laws, inside of China. I have no say in what they do in Hong Kong. China is fully within their rights to do so even if I believe it will harm the Chinese people with regard to their long term prosperity.
I didn’t even bring up China here, but curiously you did. 你是 中国人吗？
You are defending a crime. But, muh freedom…
Here’s another place where you should apply your own logic: “Just because you want something to be true, doesn’t make it so.”
This is exhausting. The sanctions are illegal and condemned internationally. Any law approved and applied after that fact is immaterial. Get it. It doesn’t matter if the boat is American. It doesn’t matter if it was US dollars and an American company. The overarching sanctions are illegal, so any adjudication after is illegal. Capiche?
