The American administration has acknowledged that it intercepted about a million barrels of Iranian crude oil that were reportedly headed for China.
The department issued its first criminal resolution concerning the illegal sale and transport of Iranian oil, a transgression of U.S. sanctions, along with the confirmation of the seizure.
The United States seized a cargo of crude oil from the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), a group that has been designated as a foreign terrorist organization, in April, according to confirmation from the Justice Department (DOJ) on September 8. more here

would the US considered it an act of war?
China Seizes 1 Million Barrels Of Iranian Oil Allegedly En Route To USA
The U.S. tries to police the world while China and Russia conduct business. I wouuld say that is ironic except policing the world has been our standard operating procedure since WW2.

“and it only cost us 6 billion“.
That’s 6000$ a gallon
Just trying to get a war started before the next election.
Make sure the USA doesn’t have the resources for defense in a war?
Does that make up for the 950,000 barrels from the reserve Biden sold to China last year?
Or the 30 million barrels sold from the reserve in June 2022?
The $BILLIONS worth of military equipment given to the Taliban and Ukraine?
Almost like they are deliberately killing America.

Who fucking made you the boss? I’m sick and tired of this shit. What GD business is it who the Iranians sell their oil to?
So is that the Obiden regime’s solution to oil shortages? Piracy?
I mean, like others have mentioned, they just gave $6 billion to the Iranians so why would they seize one lousy ship full of oil?
Ohhhhh, to distract from the favors they just did for Iran.
Trying to look tough.
Lame
It’s only a matter of time before the US gets a big chunk of its ass or more bitten off.
Reads like a Biden Zelenski money laundering process.
It used to be we made friends and influenced people. Now it seems we’re just pissing everybody off with our resident idiot.
That is an act of war.
The World’s Most Powerful Criminal Organization Seizes 1 Million Barrels Of Iranian Oil Allegedly En Route To China.
FIFY
I have no Piled Higher & Deeper in history, but didn’t somebody use something like this as an excuse to start the second world war? I think it was something like when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor.
The department’s first criminal decision was about the drift hunters unauthorized sale and transfer of Iranian oil, which is against U.S. law.
The DOJ can find 1 Million Gallons of transported crude oil from Iran.
But they can NOT find the $20 Million Dollars Hunter and the Biden Mafia received from foreign governments and oligarchs.
I suppose if they find the $20 Million, they’ll pay the Bidens $6 billion like they did with Iran.
Just exactly how many barrels of oil did Biteme take out of our reserves and give to China?
