The destructive attack on the UAE Swift HSV, and now the third attempted missile attack on the USS Mason. I almost want to put "....to be continued" at the end of this article.

Whose bright idea is it to leave our guys out where the Muslims are just using them for target practice?

Total bull crap. No proof of incident and no proof of source. Don’t fall for this “Gulf of Tonkin” — “WMD” lie again. This is all about Donald Trump and obozo is using OUR military!!! This is a LIE!!

Swift was actually made in Australia, had been on lease to USN, then left our service and went to...UAE or Qatar, or something..?
Houthi rebels used C-801, less advanced than C-802, which is a knock-off of our Exocet.
Some people claim the Houthi attacks are being used as premise for the USA to go down there and “get biz done” on behalf of the rich, corrupt, lazy Saudis, who of course are used to simply hiring anyone to do stuff for them...

.. Total bull crap. No proof of incident and no proof of source ..
To: CMB_polarization
.. if there were multiple incoming missiles or if there was a malfunction with the radar detection system on the destroyer ..LOL. Obama's Pentagon are good at lying, but they're even better at CYA.
Who's their equivalent of Comey?

....U..S. Navy Destroyer Fired On Again...
Not a US vessel... The Swift was decommissioned and sold to the United Arab Emirates...they owned and sailed it when it was fired on.

I am telling you this is all staged for the election. We have no business in the middle east except to kill all isis ( which I support) and take the oil for doing it. Get the hell out of sunni/shiite business . We have ABSOLUTELY no dog in that fight. Close our borders and NUKE UP!! AMERICA FIRST!! Down with globalism HARD!! GO TRUMP!!

As an Navy EW during Vietnam, I found evading/deflecting vampires was the most nerve-racking job ever invented. It was like doing timed math problems in your head with a gun pointed between your eyes.
