    You really are a god almighty dope. There is no comparison, China has decided unilaterally to commandeer the Spratly and Paracel Islands ffs. The Spratlys are five hundred miles from China, stop being such a cockwomble!!

Rather, US officials threatened ship owners, insurers and captains with sanctions to force them to hand over their cargo, which now becomes US property...
    But the tankers never arrived at the South American country and then went missing. Two of the ships later reappeared near Cape Verde, a second US official said.
    Reading is Fundamental...from the OP

    with sanction to force them to hand over their cargo,

    Well, I guess you can call it Piracy. Usually it's called an Act of War. (can you say "What's good for the Goose is good for the Gander"?)

    sanctions are legal. I dislike them because they are just declared -not adjudicated -but they carry legal weight

    So, if I 'sanction' YOU, I can take you car?
    The US 'sanctions' Iran, so now the US can just take their stuff from the High Seas?
    If China 'sanctions' the US, is it cool if they just take our stuff from the High Seas?

    it has to meet criteria.
    Like I said I'm not in favor of sanctions on Russia. Iran is an existential threat -so I'm less worried
    and getting Venezuela out of the clutches of Maduro makes it palpable

    Iranians are fine people, Comrade maggot. Your propaganda brain-washing has turned you into a potty-mouthed tool of Jewish fascism.
