Germany was sinking our merchant ships left and right for a couple of years and we didn’t consider an act of war until the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor.
It was an act of aggressive war even if we didn’t fight back. That’s actually a good example to consider.

Your first part of the response is a deflection - ownership is irrelevant if the ship has been sanctioned
My response was specific to the person I responded to, and his/her post.

Ok. Let’s say I concede your point. It’s an aggressive act. Maybe even an act of war.
What of it? International Law? Who’s gonna enforce it? What’s Venezuela gonna do? You think Russia or China are gonna send their ships over to engage with the US Navy in our own back yard?

The issue is whether the US is engaging in aggressive war

Their oil was never ours.

Pretty sure a lot of the rigs that pumped that were.
They can consider it our cut.

So you complain about tariffs and prices but okay with Venezuela disrupting global trade with ships that skirt our sanctions? You sound about American as the Somali in Minnesota.

Any other deflections you want to throw out due to your inability to actually discuss issues? Might as well get it all out of your system now.
I think we are witnessing a person that suffers from TDS.
Seriously. You okay?

Neither you or I know for sure, but I do know a Chinese company built many of the rigs there. Refineries, not sure.
But taking the oil for our own use with no compensation is piracy.

The discussion was about stealing oil for our own reserves.

That Biden did. That isn’t what you’re arguing though.
