The ten U.S. sailors who were seized by Iranian gun boats when they drifted into Iranian territorial waters have been released without incident. It appears that one of the boats suffered from some type of mechanical failure, and negotiations for the sailors release were quickly accomplished. It helped that the Farsi Island location at which the boats were found drifting was neither a strategic location, nor a sensitive location for communications or other military activities.
A video has surfaced wherein one of the sailors appears to be apologizing for the accidental incursion, which could complicate things for the sailors.

Those AMATEURS Who Captured the U.S. Sailors were Members of the Republican Guard Navy that Answers to the Religious Zealets who Run Iran. THEY were NOT the Official Iranian Navy… They tried to pull that on a couple of Aussie Navy Boats and the Aussies Curssed the Hell out of them and Trained All their weapons on them, Telling the Iranian Republican Guard Sailors to “P**S OFF MATES” and told them, The Aussies would Sink all the Iranians if they didn’t Back Off in International Waters… THE US NAVY SHOULD INSTRUCT OUR SAILORS THE SAME WAY… I would NEVER have Let them Come Close Enough to Capture my Boat… Would Have Opened Fire with everything I had… While Calling the 5 th Fleet for more firepower. When President Reagan was President. He Did Exactly THAT. and No U.S. Navy Ships were Threatened by any Iranian Navy vessels again…
A stupid officer.
We’ve waited 7 years for a birth certificate! We don’t get the truth from our government.
You can bet the sailors were told to surrender by some terd sucking lawyer that had to contact….BEFORE THEY COULD FIRE A SHOT!!!!!!
