Iran Has Seized 2 UK Oil Tankers

23 hostages......Websites tracking the ship's path show it turning sharply in the direction of Iran's Qeshm Island, instead of its intended destination of Saudi Arabia.

With tensions as they are in the straits, WTF is an unprotected Tanker doing in those waters anyway ??

a 3 yr old could have seen this coming. Geeeez

Wait, Trojan Tanker......it's got no oil....but 50,000 heavily armed British troops below decks

There should have been 20 SBS or SAS chaps on board to provide a "welcome" to any boarding party.

yes----ACT OF WAR------but if you say that it is not nice for a country to place a
block on a strait needed for international trade----you are called a "WAR MONGER"
and probably have a jew somewhere in your family tree. I learned this stuff by
reading islamo Nazi "literature" over the past, in excess, of 60 years

UK seized one of Iran's a couple weeks ago for violations. It's tit for tat.

the UK had a legal reason to do so, and the backing of the rest of the EU.

Who's backing Iran on this one?

Unprotected? What do you mean? Are all the other ships in the Strait surrounded by armed gun ships? What do you mean?

Well, it just happened. Let's see.
Most likely, no one will back them because like I said it's TIT FOR TAT and Iran is out of line. But maybe we should see.

Iran will make up some bullshit legal cover to justify the taking of the vessel, or they will deny it because they will say they don't control the Revolutionary Guards.

You said "tit".

Well, yours, certainly not. It's kind of a turn off when you can double wrap them around your neck and use them as a scarf.

What's ironic is that UK was negotiating with the ragheads to release their tanker if the oil didn't go to Syria. Apparently the mullahs weren't satisfied with that since they have few, if any, customers left for their oil. So you have a captured tanker sitting in an island port off the coast of Iran....How do you free it without damaging the ship and crew which has already been taken off the ship? Iran has an extensive missile-defense system at hand...You have to take it back....SAS time.

Back on topic after a leftist decided she wanted to start with personal attacks....

I can't see the UK allowing them to get that tanker back to port in Iran. They might make a propaganda example out of it like NK did with our frigate back when.

They need to stop it where it is and re take it now. Iran had vowed a "slap in the UK's face".

Here it is.
