US to sieze it and its cargo.

Is it really? I get seizure and everything, but selling it - I guess that could be possible only if owner didn't pay a fine and wouldn't oppose it legally?

OTOH what'd happen if the ship is in order and it still happened that? Or just seizure and torture of its crew just like happened with Global Sumud Flotilla?

    Getting off topic here. The actions of a state may not be lawful or justifiable, but they aren’t piracy.
