You were probably witnessing normal DNS propagation after the authoritative name servers had been changed. Keep in mind that the nameserver data you see in "whois" may not be up to date. When a site is seized, law enforcement goes direct to the registry (GLTD operator, such as Verisign), not the registrar.

For 2 years?

The authoritative nameservers still return the original IP, I can still access the site from anywhere in the world except the US.

That's different. Can you share the domain? I run my own name servers.
