Iranian ships 'harass' U.S. Navy, officials say
The U.S. military reported Monday on a "significant" confrontation involving five Iranian Revolutionary Guard boats that "harrassed and provoked" three U.S. naval ships in international waters over the weekend.
U.S. military officials said the incident occurred Saturday night in the Strait of Hormuz, a narrow shipping channel leading in and out of the Persian Gulf.

It should of read like this.
Three U.S. Naval Ships opened up on IRG boats...The fire was so well directed that they could not find a single trace of them after the smoke cleared.

I would say hit em where it hurts. Their nuke reactor then hit the biggest navy port they have. Before the Dems take any more punch out of our military.
Make them think twice when they see a ship with "Old Glory" flying.

It seems to me that Iran is purposely placing itself in harm's way to become the poor, Islamic martyr, that the evil West has destroyed.
I voted no. I think we should wait until we can apply the full wrath of American bad-ass motherfuckers to Iran.

Re: .
Is this imaginative reporting? I'm unable to find any press about such an incident, except for earlier in 2007 when 15 British sailors were taken captive.RGR_Dan wrote:NEWS FLASH
