Iran's Seizing the Stena Impero Was NOT Retaliation

By Scott Creighton at American everyman or as now nomandiceveryman

The Stena Impero was traveling through Iranian side of the Strait when it struck an Iranian fishing vessel. The fishing vessel requested assistance from the Impero which ignored them, turned off their tracking system and tried to exit the scene. So yes, the Iranians detained the tanker for violating any number of maritime laws not the least of which being they left another vessel crippled and in danger of sinking in the water. Ergo... no... this is not a 'tit for tat" retaliation for the illegal seizure of that Iranian tanker last week by the British.
