I do like a good seizure on the high seas.

I read that the US put sanctions pressure on the ship owners to divert the cargo.   
I don't like the VE govt or Iran but I think the US should butt out of VE and maybe Iran.

I'm good with it...I just wish we were as hard on commies and moon-rock-worshipping-Mahdi-Apocalypse-craving animals here as we are over there...

And in different circumstances, be fine to leave suicidal maniacs on their own...but when they align with batshyt-crazy lunatics like that who have nuclear materials (thanks Russia...dickheads!) and threaten neighbors (Israel) with annihilation and would be a nightmare extortionist in the PG if unchecked...yeah, no...doing nothing is akin to suicide...might as well launch our nukes on ourselves and save the crazies the trouble...leave nothing for them or anybody else to use and let them live in the post-nuclear nirvana...
