“A judgement could attach assets in America”
The seized warship was an antique three-master. I suspect that the state department would step in and try to prevent seizing assets. I don’t know what our present situation is with Argentina, but that would make it head south in a hurry. Also, it might provoke them to again try to seize the Falklands. They are already practically at a shooting war trying to prevent the Brits from drilling for oil.
I had in mind arresting a 747 at JFK or maybe MIA
