When dealing with Iran, warning shots should breach the bridge.

It’s clear that Tehran has greenlighted this sort of cat and mouse game.
However, eventually the cat will catch the mouse and beat the ever loving crud out of it.

Warning shots?....sink the turds!
To: jhpigott
First time, nothing happened. Second time, warning flares were fired. Third time’s the charm...
To: jhpigott
Let's say the Iranians ignored the warning shots... at what point would our forces fire on the ship? When they get within a certain distance? When they (the Iranians) fire upon the ship? Does our forces have the green light to initiate fire or do they have to get affirmative from the headquarters?
Because I'm sure this is exactly the quandry those British forces faced when they got kidnapped by the Iranians a year or two ago...
It sounds like the Iranians are looking for any excuse to create another front for our forces. And we are already tapped out in the WOT. Imagine how bad the looney left is now... wait until we start bombing Iran...

A Navy security team of 12, armed with M-16 rifles and .50-caliber machine guns, was onboard the Westward Venture at the time the warning shots were fired.Surprise !!!
To: jhpigott
They should have sunk the boats as a warning to anyone else stupid enough to mess with us.

I’m glad they didn’t sit on their hands this time!

I HOPE these guys did not have their OWN machine guns...unlike the hapless Anerican citizens here. (Unless they were pre-86, of course.) There WERE some Army or Navy people on that ship, to have custody of those guns, RIGHT? Right????

a ship contracted by the Navy to carry military cargo to Kuwait, fired upon the boats Thursday after attempts to get Iranian boats' attention failed
If you can't get their attention, make sure the next trip you carry some kind of recoilless s-to-s missile system. ;') I really mean it this time, g'night all.

The Iranian should tow a whale behind them. The contractors would be forbidden to fire upon them.

an M16 is not ideal for shooting at boats. I’d want an M14 if the .50 was already taken.
