U.S. naval forces operating in and around the Strait of Hormuz, a critical shipping lane, are routinely approached by Iranian warships and aircraft on a nearly daily basis, according to a Pentagon official familiar with operations in the region.
During these interactions between U.S. and Iranian forces, American aircraft and ships are routinely photographed by the Iranians for intelligence purposes, according to the official, who said that most confrontations between the sides are conducted in a safe and professional manner"

The Obama administration and Congressional Democrats want to help them.
When did leftists’ “No Nukes” for America become “Pro Nukes” for terrorists?
While the GOPe sucks their thumbs.
Back when we had a President, we shot up the Iranian navy. Barry Soetoro, the usurping Kenyan follower of Mad Mo is not about to do that.
0dingo himself has stated that Iran will use some of the $150 BILLION to fund terrorism worldwide. Stop right there. This is grounds for his indictment and arrest for Treason.
Perhaps the USN and USAF should issue laser pointers to all members, to be aimed at the Iranian pilots and seamen.
You play stupid games, you earn stupid prizes.
As soon as Obama was waved into the whitehouse
“When did leftists No Nukes for America become Pro Nukes for terrorists?”
Simple. Leftists worship all that is evil, and villifies all that is good. Pick any topic you care to choose. Works every time.
By the time Ayatollah Obama is out of the White House he will have our Navy protecting the Iranian warships.
When they began to hate the US while doing the leftist double think that they are immune to a nuclear strike.
Blow them out of the water.
However, the “Death to America” mob promises to tell us if they find any nukes anywhere in Iran.
Pointers? We don't need no stinking pointers. 30 kilowatts of LaWS on the USS Ponce.
That Zone is a little to “HOT” for OJT, but so was all SAC Bases from the 60’s till NOW.
Since this isn’t happening in Kerrys own Chesapeake bay, there will not be a USS Pueblo or Gulf of Tonkin incident here.
Since they’re playing a game, blind them with the laser pointers, like what sometimes happens over airports. If there is a response, THEN unleash the REAL weapons.
We have an operational weaponized laser....use it.
I have several Iranian-heritage American friends, and one of the things they’ve said is that irrespective of the Islamic politics, there is a cultural underpinning of Iranian society that is ultra competitive and has a hard time not ‘winning’. They said anything less than ‘best’ is not acceptable to the Iranian cultural mindset.
As I’ve thought about this, it makes some sense in the context of what we have seen and continue to see out of Iran. It also underscores why negotiating with them, without taking an extremely hard line, is folly. IMHO.
Negotiating with them is futile. Elimination of their potential to do harm is the best move for our nation. Turn their air force into home made Sopwith Camels, their Navy into jon boats, their army into a chaotic group of paranoid persons more scared of us than they are their chain of command. Hit & destroy every single piece of infrastructure that could ever be turned into use for weapons manufacturing. Do this and never, ever, no matter what lift so much as a finger in aid afterward.
