3 minute video aired on Iran TV showing capture of 10 American sailors. Dramatic music plays in background during video.

I’m sure they kept all the weapons, ammo, electronic devices, helmets, passports, etc.
Wouldn’t surprise me if a ransom was paid under the table as well (in addition to the $150 billion coming to them in the near future).
The US media is the only reason why we elected a "Color" to be President. Unfortunately that "Color" was attached to a very stupid and evil man, who rode that "Color" into office.
He has turned out every bit as stupid as the worst predictions suggested he would be, and it is the Media who is responsible for misleading the public into thinking this idiot was up to the task.
The media has harmed the nation. The "Media' needs to be made to pay for the damage that they caused.
That is what they did to capture our drone. Perhaps they did it to lure those boats close enough to grab.
These US Navy personnel and Commanding Officers should ALL be court martialed. Incompetence and cowardice.
Who are we kidding? How much was the ransom?? Or is it connected to the funds to be released?? Of course Obama is playing a game.
Should have read your post first Dave...I just posted the same thing.
Look at the Iranian released video. The Iranians are aboard a couple center-console fishing boats you might see on a lake in Central Florida.
The two US boats are armed with multiple M-2’s and God knows what else.
This is really screwed-up.
Steam is coming out of my ears. NOT MARINES, number 1. Gotta go before I say something that will be used against me in a court of injustice.
Got the boats but who the h*ll doesn’t arm themselves? I bet the creeps will buy 500 of the boats from sweden when they get their 150 billion.
Just glad they are safe.
The Iranians must have had a bigger ship behind the scenes? I too wondered about these Iranian “bass boats.”
Grrrr!!!
):^(
Me too.
When I first saw this I thought the Americans were unarmed. Not the case.
Ordered to stand down? Couldn't outrun those Boston Whalers?
I can't believe we would not try to defend ourselves.
Beyond embarrassing, a propaganda coup.
“This makes my blood boil”
You and me both buddy. You and me both. Every time I look at that video I start yelling the “F” word. Notice the only one not eating and not smiling is the woman.
Where were all those military assets we supposedly have when we need them? One lousy drone with four Hellfires could have overflown til they limped out of there.
I am beyond crazed!
