Iranian military gunboats with the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps, a designated terrorist organization, swarmed several U.S. warships on Monday that were escorting a U.S. submarine.
“Over a dozen Iranian gunboats harass formation of six U.S. warships including guided-missile submarine Georgia,” Fox News Pentagon correspondent Lucas Tomlinson said. “U.S. Coast Guard cutter fired warning shots in response in Strait of Hormuz.”
The 13 Iranian military vessels reportedly came within 150 yards of U.S. Forces, which fired 30 warning shots at the Iranian vessels. Pentagon press secretary John Kirby called the incident “significant” since previous incidents had involved fewer vessels.

Biden/Harris worst USA leadership ever....USA/America is the laughing stock of the entire world!!! Sad days ahead for the American Nation Republic and the American people!!!
Smells like some fake ass setup drama...
Um, they did.
Even before President Trump took out their General Suleimani.
Yes, no more warning shots. 50 cal Target Practice. At least disable the engine. 3 slugs at most. It takes some nice marksmanship practice. Our kids can do it!
Cap, I didn’t see where the story said that they actually ‘fired’ on our ships. Did I miss that somewhere?
Don't they understand that our military cares about the feelings of WOKE citizens ... and they will defend the latest uniform fashion statements... the feelings of transgenders and the sensitivities of gays... Quake in your boots Iranians...

President Trump took out Sulemani because Iran was planning to attack our embasssy in Iraq and go after several locations where American troops were in that country. That information was obtained through espionage with the help of Israel. I wouldn’t call that behaving themselves.
Of course. We agree about that.
Maybe you are thinking of Trump’s holding the line in Syria and attacking the Iranian-backed Shiite militias who had been told not to cross the river to where the oil was and decided to move ahead anyway.
I’m just saying that they were still trying, all that time.
They received the consequences of their actions. They never stopped trying.
Agreed
