Second incident now, after last week. the Alpine Eternity got away by fleeing into UAE waters.
A US Navy ship was 20 miles away, but "Did not get involved" because there wasn't a "Distress call". (Yet, the UAE Coast Guard knew to send 3 cutters to help the ship?)

Time to splash some Iranian ships.....
But our Panti’s-in-Chief doesn’t have the balls.....
The straits are definitely in our national strategic interest...

Five Iranian boats fired shots . . . Obama has ordered all white bastards of the US Navy out of the Gulf Region, has offered an apology to the Iranians for the white privileged US Navy for being in the Gulf and promises to pay reparations to all Iranians for the white privileged bastards racist activities throughout the Gulf States!
Obama has promised billions in US white privileged bastards tax dollars to the Iranians if they will just allow the US Navy white bastards to leave peacefully!
Obama leads the White-house Administration in prayer praising Allah!

Same old Obama rules of engagement.
The enemy can fire at will.
For the American military, there can be no will.

expect to see more of this, and greater aggression by the Iranians.
obama will let them do anything, including fire on an American ship. nothing will cause him to walk away from his legacy treaty with Iran
probably see mines being laid in the gulf next.

Iran is feeling their oats now that they have the leader of the Great Satan bowing to them.

Oh boy!
“The Pentagon is still gathering information about the incident”.
Report due next year.
Our DOD is hopeless. We got a new head of JCS. Hope he’s at least 10% better than the coward who just left, Gen. Dempsey.
We need a Patton and get a Hilton Perez.
