Moments ago according to the native Twitter feed of Arabiya, Iranian forces have seized a US cargo ship, which has some 34 American sailors, which they have taken to the port of Bandar Abbas.
More as we get it.

I’m sure Obozo will apologize for offending the Iranians and will offer even more concessions as proof of his sincerity.
Doubt the American press will mention it for awhile.
I’ll be surprised if they do.
On the bright side, obama can once again exceed Carter’s failures!
In this case by 189 days...
More than 600, but the sentiment is there.
Probably a boatload of US uranium . . .
Skip all the middle parties and ‘ship direct’!
The crew had no idea what they were hauling . . .
Thanks, Bill, Hill, & O-Kerry . . .

R U kidding me? And we are in talks with these wretched primitives to let them develop a bomb? Way to go Barky and Jean Francois.
“Nothing to be alarmed about. Im sure it is probably part of Økerrys deal with Iran, where they get some ships and crew in exchange for us giving them free reign to destroy Israel.”
And nukes. Can’t forget about the nukes.
Why the heck weren’t Maverick and Ice sent in?
Seriously; why has nothing been done?
Turn their military into glass.
What’s the ship name?
I’m sure if Barry parachutes in, he can “community organize”.
For what it’s worth...

Details are still coming in, but per @NBCNews...senior US Navy officials say reports of US Navy cargo ship seized by Iran are false
So some Iranians felt like going out for a cruise one night?
Well. I’m guessing that Obama US Carrier Group out there with no orders from him is doing a shit load of good in the region right now. Great job guys.
Act of war. No nuke deal for you. (Nuke the holy city of Qom.)
