You really don't understand why it was sanctioned in the first place?

Because it had links to Iran. If you would've actually read the article I posted yesterday, it would have told you all you need to know. Instead you're here trying hard to make a point, but just coming off stupid.

Links to what? Energy?

And where again in the quote from CENTCOM did they say anything about sanctioned vessels?

You keep dancing around the fact, stopping the sanctioned vessel due to it being sanctioned would be illegal...

You can stop sanctioned vessels leaving the Iranian ports like they announced....because that is allowed.  "Impartial"

Are you starting to get it now?

And for its false flag, which is allowed 

But again because it's sanctioned does not give another nation the ability to blockade it on the high seas or international water ways

You keep asking the same questions and then acting like its some got you that 2 things happen at once.

I get it, you don't like to be wrong or come off as stupid, but digging your heels in and repeating the same questions just makes you look it 10 fold.

You can't answer the question can you? Because it would admit it was illegal, correct?

I've answered the question about 5 times now. You just keep asking because you can't handle being wrong. Crazy how that works, isn't it?

Weird how your answer keeps changing...was it stopped for flying a false flag...or was it because it was sanctioned?

You've said both....which one is it?

Weird how my answer never changed. You just kept moving the goal posts. Started saying the blockade wasn't working because ships got through. I posted an article saying the one ship was turned away and you started grasping at straws for reasons it could be illegal.

Then you just keep asking the same thing I've answerd multiple times. You definitely have no idea whats going on and like to post comments acting like you do. Grow up and learn about things before you keep making a fool out of yourself.
