The missile attack, if confirmed, would mark the third time the USS Mason was fired upon in international waters in the past week from territory in Yemen controlled by Iranian-aligned Houthi rebels.

Someone does NOT like that ship at ALL!!!/s;)
Whose bright idea is it to leave our guys out where the Muslims are just using them for target practice?
Perhaps they just want attention
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...
U.S. Navy Destroyer Fired On Again Off what used to be Yemen
Does sound like possible history repeating doesn't it?
I don’t trust my government on anything they say. NOTHING!!
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!!
Why is this happening? Who is behind it?
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.
I can assure you it is real.
From AP:
An American defense official told The Associated Press on Sunday that one of the ships saw on radar what sailors believed to be missiles being fired on it out of Yemen at night. The official spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss details of the incident not yet made public.
