    I keep thinking about JFK and how he was seen then as an appeaser and “soft” on Communism. Compare that WWII vet to the current Ovomit. If JFK was “soft”, Ovomit is...I don't want to say.

U.S. aircraft carrier acted provocatively after Iran arrested sailors - IRGC
DUBAI, Jan 13 (Reuters) - A U.S. aircraft carrier acted âprovocatively and unprofessionallyâ for 40 minutes by carrying out manoeuvres in the Gulf after Iran arrested 10 American sailors, Iranâs Revolutionary Guards Naval commander, Rear Admiral Ali Fadavi, said on state television on Wednesday.
Separately, a spokesman for the Revolutionary Guards (IRGC) said the U.S. sailors were being interrogated, according to the Tasnim news agency. (Reporting by Bozorgmehr Sharafedin; Writing by Yara Bayoumy; Editing by Robeert Birsel)
