Like in 444 days?

A half an hour after Trump is sworn in?

[stormer]

Yeah, we do. Nothing.

[al baby]

WTF I am about to go postal here !!!!

[ASA Vet]

Yes Dave, both times off duty personnel when to Ops to work without being asked. We really thought for some silly reason that the Commander In Chief would do something. During the Pueblo we were at Sigint alert level one for a week. About two weeks later we had code word changes.

“I’m sure the “deal” to get our sailors/boats back will be as advantageous to us as the Iran nuke ‘deal’”

The Fraud’s chance to FINALLY free his BFF terrorist “blind sheik” that was thwarted by rebellious (to Hussein’s stand-down order) resistance in Benghazi?

I’ll never forget waking to the news of the barracks bombing..

A sad day indeed.

Iran knows how to get attention.

I’m guessing they are not very happy about something.

This could get interesting, or.....Obama will cave, give them what they want and no journalist will ask what...

[SkyDancer]

Clarence.

[Nachoman]

Iran will return the boats as soon as they strip it like an Escalade parked in South Central L.A.

[Wilderness Conservative]

The article says they were riverine boats.

[tcrlaf]

Most likely the 44 ft Fast Boats...

[don-o]

Clowns on Fox yukking it up.

[Mariner]

US State Dept and DoD are minimizing the import of this.

[doorgunner69]

With the muzz-in-chief, they likely had no ammo on board.

Can't take a chance they might hurt his brethren.

All the media can do is talk about how this effects obama speech. Expletive deleted. Obama’s speech! Expletive deleted. Whst about our 10 men. Their family.

[Mariner]

"This is an act of war and this POTUS commits TREASON by doing nothing."

Small boats in Iranian waters, made land on Iranian territory.

[Sarah Barracuda]

Of course they are..they won’t report on anything that makes Obama look bad..these are now hostages..Iran has already said they are under arrest so they are screwed

There is NO WAY those US Navy ships drifted that far. No way.

Sailing from Kuwait to Bahrain keeps you well south of Iran.

Well south.

I’m thinking it is likely one of the ships had a problem and was ‘drifting’ as stated and the Iranians seized the opportunity and obozo was too weak-kneed to do anything to protect them, you know, to protect the nuke deal as it wouldn’t do him and the agreement any good if we actually defended US ships in international waters—there would be huge calls to terminate the agreement and he can’t have that.

Just me and my tin-foil hat talking. . .
