“Are they now running the embassy because they are in control? If so, then that would be seizing it”

If they walked in the door, and were in charge, for however short of a time, as in “everybody get your hands up, where’s assange?”.
That’s a seizure. Departure a few minutes later doesn’t change that.

ACTUAL TWEET
Reports the Brits STORM the Ecuadorian Embassy tonite while Kerry demands the UK revoke their diplomatic status so Assange can be SEIZED

Sort of like playing Telephone...Now some people are posting that Embassy was seized, and that is not necessarily true.

This is the thing about words...You don’t know for a fact that they even did walk in the door—that they did have possession for even a few minutes....Did they seize control? You don’t know, and you are making rumors with your assumptions...They may have attempted to storm the Embassy but were unsuccessful...At this point we just don’t know, which is why it is really smart to use the wording of the tweet—because they denote facts...Are you inarticulate or a lawyer?

Roger Stone likely knows, and he chose the words based on what he knows. Or is he inarticulate or a lawyer?

Thanks for butting in and totally hijacking my first reply which was not to you...you read it out of context as I was not certain the person to whom I was posting understood what the tweet said and perhaps did not seem to believe it could happen....

You act like some sort of military expert...Perhaps you are; however, clearly, you are not an English expert. Say what you will, but I disagree and I am sticking with the actual tweet wording so as not to spread rumors here or anywhere else.

Now you posted about this twice...You can keep posting to me all you want. However, I am done, and I am going to go back to Twitter t try to get an update...
