Look at the pictures. And Biden thanked the Iranians for rescuing Americans.

[driftdiver]

Thank God we got those guys back unharmed.

How the hell did this happen? Our sailors surrendered to a fishing boat???

[flaglady47]

Will we see a picture of Kerry handing over a 150 billion dollar check to the Ayatollah too in a couple of weeks?

[skinndogNN]

A picture is worth a thousand words.

This is humiliating Mr. President.

[Steely Tom]

Does anyone know the exact time of the first news of this attack?

The first mention of it on FR was at 1610 EST yesterday.

[WKUHilltopper]

Two more ships to add to the list (USS Pueblo) that gave up without a fight.

More pictures for Obama scrap book of “I was the Greatest President Ever”

[freeandfreezing]

More importantly, look at the firepower the US boat had vs. the Iranians who "arrested" them, somebody must have ordered the Americans to surrender without defending themselves. And somebody never ordered air cover to provide back up support to the boat. The question now is why? Why did our government choose to let the Iranians capture our boat and sailors?

The Pentagon was bombed and under the undocumented
First Moslem, and now it arms al Qaeda against Americans.

The pictures show another US Navy
SUBMISSION which is the goal
of the undocumented First Moslem and Islam.
It is their way.

Submission to all, except US citizens and the
US Constitution, it seems.

[Timber Rattler]

The video down below the pics is even more disturbing...a couple of the sailors are actually smiling for the camera, and then they are all shown eating a meal together on the floor, except for the female sailor, who's sitting alone back in the corner with a rag over her head, looking thoroughly humiliated.

Thanks Obama and Kerry for dragging the once proud U.S. Navy down to THIS outrage!

[PghBaldy]

If Iran had taken our people hostage the day before, and the pictures released before the SOTU, they would have had more impact. As it is, I expect the media & the Congress to forget about this latest outrage ASAP.

[TexasCajun]

"I want to express my gratitude to Iranian authorities for their cooperation in swiftly resolving this matter," Kerry said in a short statement.

[Bobby_Taxpayer]

Obama’s rules of engagement again got our finest in trouble. They have enough firepower on those boats to repel anything. Yet they got captured without a fight.

This is BS!

[GOPJ]

Was this before or after we apologized?

[48th SPS Crusader]

Was this an unarmed naval ship? If so why?
Was there no air support available? If not why not?
Did our Commander in Chief immediately contact Iran and explain to them the sailors would be released post haste or a Tomahawk missile would be taking out one of their nuke producing plants? If not why not?

[b4its2late]

I’m sure we sent them more money than we had seized originally. You know, interest......

[Flatus I. Maximus]

Wow. It really is the winter of 1979-1980 all over again. An idiot Democrat in the Whitehouse, an economy circling the drain, and Americans held hostage in Iran.

Dear God, I miss Ronald Reagan.

[ilovesarah2012]

What if it was a set-up to make Obama look good? How did two vessels become disabled at the same time? Why didn’t the Americans fight back? Why were they released so quickly? I don’t believe anything Obama or Kerry say about anything ever.

[Bender2]

Isn't it wonderful how our servicemen and servicewomen... give proper respect to Allah and our Iranian allies!

[liberalh8ter]

Sad to say but as long as the Iranian born right-hand woman is defiling the interior of our White House with her presence, you can’t convince me she didn’t orchestrate this event on behalf of her Iranian brethren.
