It would serve them right if you threw out everything containing petrochemicals and boycotted anything petrochemical based in the future. That would show them! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People don't realize how much oil seeps from the oceans floor naturally. Or that microbes have a field day eating an oil spill, if man doesn't interfere and poison their buffet. If it were refined product, it would be different. Edited June 15, 2019 by robert k spelling 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like you think you are above the general populace which would be arrogance incarnate. You might look in a mirror if you find the word people offensive. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Something is wrong with this picture. I would assume that an oil tanker would be in an Iranian port to do something, hmmm..., maybe load up with oil? Then why would the Iranian's put mines on their own customer ships? That makes no sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
