U.S. Navy Ship Fired Warning Shots At Iranian Boats After Close Encounter
Iranian fast-attack boats charged at two U.S. ships in the Persian Gulf on Monday evening,
causing one of the U.S. vessels to fire warning shots,
the U.S. Navy said Tuesday ....
Three armed speed boats operated by the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps
came within 68 yards of a U.S. Navy coastal patrol boat
and a U.S. Coast Guard patrol boat operating in international waters
of the Persian Gulf, the Navy said in a statement.
U.S. personnel tried to hail the Iranian ships over the radio,

Did the US ship have to call Uncle Joe first, before firing?
That’s how Obama had set things up.
And then, he often was not reachable for a good while.

Weak president. Now we can bully those American pigs and sons of apes!
“I fired a warning shot through his liver, sir.”
Testing Sleepy Joe.
Curious how this happens after the traitor Kerry story comes out.
and you wonder why the Aliens are not making contact..
our first response to having a close encounter is to shoot at it.
Yep, I bet anything the Biden domestic enemy occupation is trying to make that happen again.
If the Iranians has sported a Trump 2024 flag, they’d be at the bottom of the gulf right now.
They’ll do this several times. Back off after warning.
Then one day, they’ll make the full-run. Not exactly the USS Cole but with similar results.
The mullahs are that crazy.
Really? We know Iran self identifies as an enemy of USA. Tea and crumpets are a waste of time.
yeah...they’ll capture or sink one of ours soon
They fired on Kerry’s BFFs. He’ll file a protest at the State Dept.

So was that our PC navy doing that with the SJWers at the helm?
Joe was probably napping.
But I wouldn't be shocked if Valerie Jarrett fires the Captain for not calling.
Apparently someone has extra ammo. Around here, due to ammo shortages, warning shots are suspended. Fire for effect.
