So…will they seize the companies assets and arrest the CEO for violating the sanctions?
Because that’s how you stop this shit.
You want the United States to arrest someone in Greece for transporting oil from Iran to China? I don’t see how it’s any of our fucking business.
The company is based in Los Angeles you knob
So instead of putting the US capital investors in prison and seizing the assets of the equity firm, they seize the oil and fuck the greek company.
That is judiciary colonialism
ITT: “It’s ok when we do it.”
This but unironically.
The court filings also show allegations that “profits from oil sales support the IRGC’s full range of malign activities, including the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction and their means of delivery, support for terrorism and both domestic and international human rights abuses.”
Remember Saddam Hussein and his weapons of mass destruction?
Yes. Also that has no relevance here.
Are you suggesting the Iranian government is not a hell state that deserves sanctions?
Plenty of hell states deserve sanctions, including the US. Being a hell state isn’t a criterion for sanctions. You’re just parroting US propaganda which pretends human rights are why it applies sanctions when in reality that is the last thing on their mind.
So you agree they deserve sanctions and this is a good thing.
Why are you arguing?
I said “Being a hell state isn’t a criterion for sanctions.” Sanctions don’t work the way you think they do. They don’t actually punish the people who make hell states the hell states that they are. If they did, then the hell state that would be among those that deserve it the most would be the USA. Do you agree with this?
No, but whether or not I agree the US should be sanctioned is not relevant here.
Of course it’s okay we sanction human rights abusers. Europe does it, too. Am I supposed to disagree with another country’s sanctions or something?
Human rights abusers when they aren’t our allies. US has been pretty chill with Saudi Arabia and they literally dismembered someone on foreign soil because they vocally opposed the tyrannical regime.
Saying there should be harsher treatment of SA doesn’t make the sanctions against China any less justified.
And we wonder why they hate us.
How dare we take a stand against genocide.
The US commited genocide in Iraq and helped genocide in Chile, El Salvador, Nicaragua, Cambodia…
The US claiming to take a stand against genocide is laughable at best.
It is completely cynical though, because the US still buys plenty of products that are made in chinese labor camps. It is crazy how much kool-aid americans drink and how deep they managed to put their heads up their own ass.

… You said in an article where a US ship willingly returned oil to a US dock because it was in violation of US trade sanctions. Could you please at least read up on the event before you decide to act high and mighty?
We? You’re posting on a nz server
Wait til you find out about this fun little thing called “federation”
are you from mali?
So countries aren’t sovereign now?
Edit: I can’t find any info. What genocide?
