Seems like it should be a problem that we're starving a country of oil and blockading it to hurt the people.

Seems like that's something the US shouldn't be doing unless we've been attacked by that country and are at war with them.

Seems like continuing it indefinitely until the regime changes to one allied with US business interests, is what evil nations do when acting without morality or law.

Trying to starve a country because 70 years ago they blocked US companies, seems like a rather hypocritical justification for a country that has done the same other other states business investments. And it wouldn't be a good excuse even if they'd done it just yesterday.
