Iran's military 'fires at and seizes US cargo ship'[W:75]

No you should have attempted to make an intelligent post relevant to the OP.

No, that was definitely pertinent to the discussion since the buck stops with the CIC. I would be expecting a response, whether it was Bush, or Obama. Since America is supposed to supply defense for the Marshall Islands, then what is America going to do about Iran's flexing it shipping muscles? Will this latest development affect the nuclear treaty? Perhaps, you can help us out, here?
 
According to the OP it was a Saudi Arabian state TV....





...the same country that promotes Wahhabism and supports Al Qaeda and ISIL. Take what they say with an ounce of salt.


The Saudi's excessive bombing campaign in Yemen is looking more like genocide everyday, eh?





I can honestly say, **** the mideast, let them kill each other, get us out of there.
 
Since this looks like an attack on a ship that is flagged by an ally that we are bound to defend I expect the Iranians to keep the ship and that they will keep or kill the crew.

Letting the Iranians fire of an Marshall Island flagged ship shows that 0bama won't defend the Marshall Islands so we can expect the Chinese to invade them before "0" leaves the White House.

But Allah be willing, 0bama wants Iran to have nuclear weapons no matter who gets hurt.

That is really smart.
We know that heart of Iran's national and international policies are based on hating America and Israel so we should let them have the bomb and pretend, like 0bama is, that Iran will come around and be nice. The give up the bomb or stop trying to kill you and your family the hard core islamists will go crazy so the mullahs - who are hard line and crazy - will never stop hating you and trying to kill you and ever infidel that you know.

So why would this peaceful nation who only wants nuclear power, not weapons take such aggressive action against us vessels? it seems to me they are being quite openly antagonistic while the apologists look the other way.

Anytime the US does the same thing are you quick to call it "aggressive action"?

Twist this around a bit more and you can blame it On Obama and the democrats and maybe say that Obama is actually a Iranian and he wants the destruction of the US and the reason he is guilty is because of the death panels in Obama care and responding to it by threats is wrong and doing nothing about it is wrong also. Then say you knew this was going to happen because Obama is a Black Moslem. You know the normal routine from regressives.

No matter what Obama did with Iran it would be wrong , it's the new senseless right at it's best. Ya lets bomb them, no lets go after them because they support terrorists, have weapons of mass destruction and are in the process to make a Nuclear bomb and support that by a expert that is on the inside of Iranian politics and we will call him curve ball 2 and use any lie possible for the sake of Haliburtan and big oil. A price of murdering 5000 more American heroes is acceptable, hell the bottom line for big oil and Halliburtan will more then justify it. You clowns don't give up.
 
depends I guess, but probably, give me some examples.

You mean that I need to give you examples of the US firing shots over the bow of foreign ships and boarding them, maybe ceasing them, really. And then listen to you defend every time it happened? I'm sure that the Iranians have their reasons for the same.
 
MSN published an Agence France Presse story concerning Iran's harassing another ship prior to its seizure of the Marshall Islands-flagged ship. AFP reported:

Iran's Revolutionary Guards "harassed" a US-flagged commercial ship last week in the Gulf, days before seizing control of another cargo vessel in the Strait of Hormuz, the Pentagon said Wednesday.

The two incidents over a five-day period raised concerns about the security of shipping lanes in the strategic Strait of Hormuz, spokesman Colonel Steven Warren told reporters.

The detention of a Danish cargo ship by the Iranian navy is linked to a long-running legal dispute, Iran's foreign minister has said.
Javad Zarif said that the Maersk shipping company, which charters the vessel, had been ordered by an Iranian court to pay damages to a private firm.
The Maersk Tigris was seized in the strategic Strait of Hormuz on Tuesday with 24 crew on board.
The United States has sent a military vessel to monitor the situation.

So why in the **** is the US running over and sticking its nose into a matter in which they have no business? Never mind, its rhetorical.

What's up with the title of this thread?

Obama is a fool, your post is more foolish.
 
It is required your title of thread matches title of article.

Right, and when I open your link, not only is the piece not titled such, the article says it was a Danish ship and not a US cargo ship???? But I suppose that's for the Mod's.

I get a kick out of people saying that this is wrong and their because is Iran is our enemy and because of Obama they are going to bomb Israel and the US next Tuesday. They aren't my enemy because There is lots of reasons why other countries don't like us, good reasons and because they are Moslem doesn't mean they are evil. One other thing I feel just as uncomfortable with any country that has nuclear weapons, in fact the two with the most are the ones most likely to use them , guess what these two using them is worse then any other country in the world using them.

This is the Pentagon looking for a new war...... bull**** on bull****.

The ship seized was Danish owned, and was seized because the company owed money.. it is a legal dispute. This happens all the time, and yet the Pentagon does not deem those cases worthy enough for military escorts and banging the war drums...
 
They committed a blatant act of war against a US ally that has since requested US assistance we should send a drone strike hellfire up the Ayatollah's ass for this one no more games with these ****ing camel ****ers and no that is not an ad-hominem the Ayatollah supported and wrote about the proper way to commit bestiality. No really it's true. ;)

We have taken this comment to a new level. Of The regressive list of the hated, Moslems are right at the top of this long list.

For good reason but I actually hate National Socialism and Stalinism more than I hate Islam but not by much.
