#4 Venezuela has the largest oil reserves in the world. But the socialists running the country are so corrupt they cannot convert that oil into gasoline and sell it to benefit it's starving people.

The income from Venezuela to Iran funds terrorism around the world.

Saving lives, including American lives by preventing the financing of terror by Venezuela's inept leadership is one of many reasons why and that is not piracy, it was a court order from a court in the US.

#5 Also the money Venezuela used was proceeds from their drug trade as a narco state in this hemisphere.

#6 Why do we want it?

It's not that we want that oil, we want to keep Iran and Venezuela from benefiting from it. Perhaps it can be donated to some country in a desperate position.
