What part of my factual post did you not understand? I repeat:
“It wasn’t a US flagged ship but it was registered in the Marchall Island which although getting independence from the US in 1986 still enjoys the “umbrella” of a US protectorate”

The fact that we are not going to do anything about the Iranians act of piracy has bearing on the factuality of what I posted.

Why is it our responsibility to do anything about it? Maersk is working with the Danish foreign ministry to find out what's going on. According to the Iranians one of their courts ordered the ship seized as a result of a legal judgment against Maersk regarding some missing cargo. Link

This has nothing to do with the U.S.
