Iran threw them a party and released them.....see what happens when you don't have an azzhole republican running the country.

Perhaps it's only that simple for simple minded people. I know you won't (can't) read this, but the intelligent people here might read it with some interest.

Calling BS on the official story
of the Iranian capture of
two US riverine boats


<snip>

This entire situation is in my area of expertise. I can state with complete confidence that both Iran and our own State Department are lying. The boats did not enter Iranian waters. They were overtaken in international waters by Iranian patrol boats that were so superior in both speed and firepower that it became a "hands up!" situation, with automatic cannons in the 40mm to 76mm range pointed at them point-blank. Surrender, hands up, or be blown out of the water. I assume that the Iranians had an English speaker on a loudspeaker to make the demand. This takedown was no accident or coincidence, it was a planned slap across America's face.

Just watch. The released sailors will be ordered not to say a word about the incident, and the Iranians will have taken every GPS device, chart-plotter etc off the boats, so that we will not be able to prove where our boats were taken.

The "strayed into Iranian waters" story being put out by Iran and our groveling and appeasing State Dept. is utter and complete BS from one end to the other.

Rick Moran points out that one flaw in this scenario is that there was a woman captured, and so far as we know there are no women in Special Forces. He, too, believe that the official story is BS, but that the simple explanation is that the Navy doesn't want to explain their humiliation and the Obama admininstration wants to keep the Iran deal at all costs
