Iran Publishes Pictures of Captured U.S. Sailors Crying
Washington Free Beacon ^ | 2/10/16 | Adam Kredo

Posted on 02/10/2016 6:54:30 AM PST by don-o

Iran has released new photographs in which at least one of the recently captured U.S. sailors is crying, according to a series of the pictures posted on social media.

The pictures, as well as an accompanying video, were released by Iranian state-controlled news outlets and disseminated on Twitter by Iranian reporters early Wednesday.

The new photographs come on the heels of another set of pictures that showed Iranian military forces detaining the U.S. sailors at gun point and forcing them to place their hands upon their heads while kneeling on a ship.

Keyboard commando, you don’t know jack, yet you continue to double down on stupid. In fact, you seem to relish in wallowing in the filth of your own comments.

No, no tears in basic as I understood the “game”. How about you? Ever been faced with a situation such as these sailors? Do you know jack dammit about what they were subjected to?

No, not a damn thing. You see a propaganda photo from a sworn enemy and you take their side by denigrating our troops. And you have the temerity and audacity to sit comfortably in front of your keyboard and proceed to slander and malign our troops.

Would call me a “puss” because I cried when one of my troops left our unit, on terminal leave to go home and die from a brain tumor? I suspect you would, that’s just how you roll isn’t it?

Go for a walk or something, you disgust me.

Crikes are you sobbing right now at your keyboard? Try to stay on the theme of the discussion and leave the PMS behind for a minute.

The point of the article is that the Iranians are purporting to show a picture of one of our guys crying because he got captured.

First I doubt its one of our guys because I can’t believe an American sailor would break down and cry just because he had to surrender.

Second if it is one of our guys which I highly doubt then he has no business in the military in the Mideast. If our guys are that soft we are screwed.

I’m confident Georgia Girl 2 meant no offense, but I have to say, that was an EPIC rant. Well done!

Who knows what the Iranians told them or did to them. And how long did they hold our hostages after Obama gave them piles of money in the disasterous Iranian nuke deal.

Our people probably thought they'd be left to die in Iran.

Don’t interpret my posts. I meant what I meant. I’m not letting some guy with PMS try to muddy the waters up by posting that military people might cry if their friends got killed or had a tumor or whatever. That’s not what we are talking about here and some people just want to veer into the weeds and get off topic.

Raise your hand if you really believe our military are so soft they would break down and cry because they got caught.

How many pictures over the years have we seen of our guys who got captured and were then paraded in front of the cameras with evident signs of torture? None of them were boo hooing about it.

I see you have upped your dosage of nasty pills today. You are making quite an impression.

My guess would be mace too. Your eyes don't go bloodshot like that over a few normal tears.

Ain't it sweet that Obumbler handed another propaganda opportunity to the Mullahs?

(not meant to sound confrontational)

She called the guy a “puss”...without knowing the full story or circumstances behind the picture. And instead of accepting that she didn’t know all of the facts when presented with possible alternatives, she insisted on doubling down.

I took offense and whether or not I wore the same uniform, I will defend my fellow brothers in arms who have or are serving, besides the douchebag types like Berghdal.

Besides calling him an outright coward (”puss” is as close as you can get I suppose), I don’t know how much more offensive one can get.

And thanks, I guess. That rant had been building for awhile. Lots of frustration about how our troops have been treated for the last few years. I’m not going to tolerate it by so-called conservatives.

As soon as I heard about the sim card removal, I felt that the iranians wanted to eliminate any proof that our naval vessels were indeed captured in international waters.

I wonder if we will ever hear the truth?!

Cruz, Rubio, and Jeb, on the other hand, are open to getting friendly and hospitable with the Muslims.

Perhaps then you don't mind showing us where Cruz is for being hospitable with terrorists?
