Iran seizes British Navy Boats...........

[ramprat]

They won't, the Britts are even more emasculated than America is.

It'll be interesting to see how the Brits respond. I myself prefer to see a sledge hammer used to kill a gnat. But I am sure there are others out there with smarter ways to resolve this. Still I would like to see that creepy looking little nitwit stop using oxygen.

Hey Gunner, it seems that the British may have really strayed into Iranian waters. British screwup.

I'd read they were in non-Iranian waters.

It might be a case where international recognition is something like 10 miles from shore, Iranian claim is something more like 10,000 miles from shore.

The seizure of the British vessels, a pair of rigid inflatable boats known as RIBs, took place in long-disputed waters just outside of the mouth of the Shatt al-Arab waterway that divides Iraq from Iran, Aandahl said. A 1975 treaty divided the waters down the middle between Iraq and Iran, but the area remains disputed.

One more reason Reagan was THE MAN. 10 days from bombing with only 2 people killed to major military response. What do we get out of weak knee Bush? Nothing even close.

I don't care whose water they were in, they should be instructed to release them NOW! I have had about enough noise out of that iranian weasel. I would move all of our ships in the Persian gulf over to the water in question and see if he tries to seize them. He is a tick turd.

Reagan had the gonads to run the country, nobody's perfect, but I believe he had the nations best interest in his heart. Plus the French embassy got a bomb close to their compound in the Lybian attack . Reagans' response was to tell the French that if our pilots had been allowed to fly over France on the way to Lybia instead of making a 3 or more hour flight out of the way, the pilots might not have been as tired and would have been more accurate in their bombing .
In todays language, President Reagan might say to himself "I love me some military and the good ol' US of A". RIP President Reagan
