Title: Four Iran Ships "Harassed" US Destroyer, Carried Out "High Speed Intercept" In Strait Of Hormuz

Following the recent revelation that the Obama administration paid Iran $400 million in ransom money to release 4 US hostages, perhaps Tehran was looking for a tip, because moments ago a US defense official said that four Iranian ships carried out a "high speed intercept" of a US destroyer in the strait of hormuz, an incident that the official dubbed "unsafe and unprofessional", cited by Reuters.

FOUR IRANIAN MILITARY VESSELS CARRIED OUT "HIGH SPEED INTERCEPT" OF U.S. DESTROYER IN VICINITY OF STRAIT OF HORMUZ ON AUG 23 - U.S DEFENSE U.S. DEFENSE OFFICIAL SAYS TWO OF IRANIAN VESSELS CAME WITHIN 300 YARDS OF THE U.S. DESTROYER AND INCIDENT WAS "UNSAFE & UNPROFESSIONAL"

As Reuters adds, the four vessels belonging to the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps "harassed" a U.S. destroyer on Tuesday by carrying out a "high speed intercept" in the vicinity of the Strait of Hormuz, a U.S. Defense official said on Wednesday.

The Defense official, speaking on the condition of anonymity, said two of the Iranian vessels came within 300 yards of the USS Nitze in an action that was "unsafe and unprofessional."

As a reminder, on January 12, the Iran navy seized 2 US navy boats and their crewmen, for "illegally entering Iranian waters." It released the captives one day later after a thorough questioning, and receipt of an apology. Less than a week later, on January 17, Iran would receive $400 million in non-USD denominated bills to release 4 US hostages.


What would Bull Halsey, or Chester Nimitz do ?

Will Obama Rama Ding Dong send them more money ?

the Iranians keep on practicing swarm attacks on US ships . Just blow them out of the water already .

In bridge, you have wild cards called trump cards. The trump cards are really wild because they change from hand to hand, depending on the bidding.

another gunboat diplomacy opportunity, and of course you would follow this up with blowing up a few saad islands in the South China Sea

bull ! They are making threatening moves towards US ships . If they put a missile in an Aircraft Carrier on one of their runs they will cause much more damage than the sinking of a speed boat . Screw them ! They captured ,and treated US sailors very badly humiliating them; and the emperor did nothing . All our inaction does is embolden them more. Enough is enough .

and where were the US ships? playing in the Iranian sandbox. From their perspective you are threatening them, perhaps a goodwill visit to one of their ports would be in order. the Big O should be able to get that done before he leaves office

" the Iranians keep on practicing swarm attacks on US ships . Just blow them out of the water already . "

I agree wholeheartedly! By doing nothing, they are just emboldened to continue. Sooner or later, they will do some real damage ( like sink a destroyer, or carrier )

Just blow them out of the water !

My guess, Obama Rama Ding Dong has the USN so neutered they are afraid to defend themselves. THIS HAS TO CHANGE !!

I don't see them 'seizing' a US Destroyer.

No, not hardly. I think the author of the comment you quoted was just illustrating their prior hostile actions.

Next time, they might just put a anti ship missile into the hull.

If they do it again, blow them out of the water !!

Unless Obama orders them to surrender the ship.

Obama and Kerry have invested way too much time into establishing good relations with Iran to let a little thing like that ruin them.

Obama can always buy back our sailors and our destroyer after Iranians search and loot it.

Its only $$$.

I'm sure you intended for that to be humorous. But sadly, it is most likely accurate.

Exactly as intended.

Don't forget Obama's arrogant and condescending tone when lecturing us on why what he does makes perfect sense;

Just heard on the radio that the US Navy is now claiming that it fired "warning" shots at the Iranians. Interesting.
