‘Obviously they’re keeping the boats.’
I believe you, but how dishonest is this report, not to mention that?
...aaaand on both boats at the same time???
aaand even when one boat had mechanical problem, the other one could not have towed it???
That smells more like obamas gift of two boats to Iranians to figer out technology, but return the sailors.
Another brick in building cali-phat and getting mansion in UAE.
The usual.
Which is to say, total BS from end to end.
We pay a lot of taxpayer money to train our military so things like this don’t happen.
How the hell did this happen?
Was everybody in the Navy focused on Obama’s new home?
I wonder what’s happening to our classified information, the disposition of every bit of which is under the control of the executive branch.
Anytime Iran’s leaders run their mouth, Obama says they don’t mean it, they just say those things so their people will respect them. That’s what he is doing now, lying to us.
The crusty-looking guy next to the OIC looked like he wanted to go mano-a-mano and kill every one of those IRGC scum with his bare hands.
It looked ridiculous .... the US riverine boats were both heavily armed with MG's and looked like they could have fought off those IRGC whaleboats very easily.
The new President (Jugears won't do it) needs to land a Marine Expeditionary Unit on Farsi Island and just take it away from them. Just take it, no apologies, and we keep it and use it as an ops base and redraw an international boundary -- and enforce it.
I bet Putin got a kick out of it.
“Where do you see that?”
The Navy doesn’t place it small boats near sovereign waters.
The Navy doesn’t fail to provide support for stricken vessels.
The Navy doesn’t allow itself to be captured so easily.
Small boats can be towed by other small boats, yet, this one didn’t seem to be.
Neither side seems to be telling the truth.
Of course our America-hating “president” will apologize, if he hasn’t already.
So a little CC boat captured our boats without a fight? WTF!
Yeah, I think he could be doing all those things. I've been suspicious of him ever since I saw his reaction to the killing of Bin Laden, and the subsequent successful ambush of SEAL Team Six under highly suspicious circumstances, that killed most of the SEALs who killed Bin Laden.
I take it all back about cancelling all of Obama's E.O.'s as the new President's first order of business. Instead, he should turn around on the podium immediately after taking his oath of office and order the Secret Service to arrest Obama for high treason. Then search all the agencies, rendition and interrogate ValJar and Kerry and Medea Benjamin and Bill Ayers -- interrogate the living hell out of them -- and use the take to bring Article III charges of treason against the Magic Negro. And move the trial, to avoid media contamination of the jury pool, to ..... Idaho. Or North Dakota. Obama must have a fair trial by fair-minded jurors.
Cleanse the land, clean out the 'Rat-infested agencies, close and RIF the 'Rat-founded agencies like Education and DoE, just blow all the Red 'Rats out of government and get the rats away from the baby generally.
Man, the new guy is going to have a backbreaking load of work to do, to clear away the Marxist and deviant excrescences of the Clinton and Obama years.
Something went wrong.
But now the sailors have been released and are not in a drawn out hostage situation.
That is the most important thing.
Metaphor for Obama Administration. Adrift on purpose or by incompetence. The result is the same - national disgrace.
Well, there you go. Isn’t there some old sailors’ saying about bad luck resulting from having a woman on the ship?
That smells more like obamas gift of two boats to Iranians....
&&&
Yep!
As well as the shipment of processed Plutonium on board the boats. Something sinister is afoot by our "leader".
Does your photo show the sterns of 2 boats lashed together? Like one was attempting to ‘tow’ the other away?
Interesting how ours look ‘military’ while the Iranians are in a fishing boat.
I read this morning that we got the boats back which surprised me. This whole incident is BS to the 10th power.
Delivery of a few W88 warheads?
