White House denies there was an apology to Iran
Arutz Sheva ^ | 14/1/16 | Ben Ariel

The White House said on Wednesday that it is pleased that Iran released 10 American sailors it had detained, but continues to have concerns about Tehran's sponsorship of terrorism and threats to Israel, Reuters reports.

White House spokesman Josh Earnest told Reuters he was not aware of any discussions between Washington and Tehran about an American apology for the incident and noted one "certainly" had not been given.

Earnest explained that President Barack Obama had not mentioned the incident during his State of the Union address on Tuesday night so as not to elevate the issue and jeopardize the sailors' release.

Earlier on Wednesday, Iran released the 10 navy sailors it detained a day earlier after they accidentally strayed into Iranian waters.

This was a set up so Obama and Kerry could put lipstick on the pig of a deal that will send 150 billion dollars to the militant imams in Iran in a few days, because they only humiliated our sailors and didn’t kill them.

Does this little coward understand how many have died, giving only name, rank, and serial number?

I’ve seen clips on Fox News and the pundit analysis. I’ve read quite a few excerpts here on FR. But I didn’t have to do any of that to know he lied prolifically. :-)

They had it on camera, what......were they going to blow his head off OR BETTER YET CUT IT OFF. Name, rank and serial number would have declared him as POW. I am sick to my stomach, because this is the kind of cowardice our military is spawning. He is a disgrace.

Apology would have meant nothing to Iran if not made publicly

Maybe no apology was needed for a false flag. Or maybe a very large check sufficed.

I’m sure that the Navy crews have been forced to sign new non-disclosure forms, so we will never know exactly what happened.

"Na , Obama only paid $150 Billion to get them back"

And, I bet he threw in a dozen Club Gitmo members as a sweetener.

I’ve watched footage of this “commander”, eating, smiling and apologizing.......I am betting it all that it will eventually come out he is a newly minted Obama military fag. Don’t be surprised when he comes home and is greeted by his lovage........

I saw the video of the officer apologizing. I saw video of “Secretariat” of State Hanoi John Kerry apologizing.

Josh Ernest is equal or worse than Carney, Gibbs and Pelley as Press Sec. I don’t know how he keeps a straight face when he’s lying and he KNOWS that no one believes him. ...Oh, wait..... he learned from his boss Obama.
