US Seizure of Illegal Iranian Fuel Heading to Venezuela ‘Largest’ in History

[Revmitchell]

The United States seized a record-setting cargo of fuel from an Iranian tanker bound for Venezuela this week; with the Department of Justice calling the stash the “largest of its kind ever.”

“The Justice Department credited the success to the U.S. government but also the assistance of foreign partners in seizing the property,” reports Fox News. “Earlier this month, federal investigators obtained warrants to seize Iranian oil products aboard four tankers bound for Venezuela in violation of U.S. sanctions.”

Wow, I thought that the Russians had sent engineers to get the Venezuelan oil fields up and running after years of communist party neglect. The Iranians are also in Venezuela to work on the oil fields or so I thought. This is really funny that oil had to be sent to Venezuela where they have more oil than Saudi Arabia. Chavez and Maduro have ruined everything.
