January 14, 201610 yr Then why didn't we nuke Israel when they attacked the USS Liberty? Many people, including many survivors do not believe that it was a mistake. Yet Israel gets a pass? And they killed many Americans. This ended peacefully and our people are now free after a very short period of time. Yet we have some who are not thankful? As I mentioned before, it was Iranian waters, we would do the same thing as they did. And how many people actually believe that the boats "broke down"? It very well may have been, but would we buy that excuses at the beginning of it happens in US waters? Same thing with the Russian fighter that flew into Turkish airspace, the Russian plane violated Turkish airspace and was shot down. Just be thankful that our people were not harmed and and now free. We would make their people apologize on video? We would show pictures and videos of their people kneeling at gunpoint? We show pictures of out military boarding their vessels?

January 14, 201610 yr We must or no other country should ever use Nukes and why a country feels compelled to build tem in this day and time is beyond me. Can only kill so many innocent White light/black rain is an awesome documentary to watch about what some survivors of the 2 bombs we dropped on Japan Super documentary to watch
January 14, 201610 yr I haven't read much (anything) on this, so forgive me if this has been addressed...Why did we have a boat in Iranian waters to begin with?
January 14, 201610 yr I haven't read much (anything) on this, so forgive me if this has been addressed...Why did we have a boat in Iranian waters to begin with? According to the article, mechanical problems, drifted into Iranian waters.
January 14, 201610 yr Give me a freakin break and try not to dislocate your ankle when you dismount that high horse. Everyone, and I mean everyone had the same thought when they read the title. Had they held the ship for any other reason than to help, I'd have made them a parking lot. So, good thing that I'm not president, and that if I was that I'd expect timely explanation. High horse, no. High standards and values, yes.
January 15, 201610 yr The Assault on the USS Liberty Still Covered Up After 26 Years | WRMEA To be fair a majority of people don't agree with the viewpoint of this article. This viewpoint that Israel would attack us doesn't make sense.
January 15, 201610 yr High horse, no. High standards and values, yes. Got to be some middle ground between isolationism and nuking at first sight.
January 15, 201610 yr I don't think we should have blown up anything. I don't blame the Iranians for detaining the sailors for a short time to figure out what was going on. I don't like the Kerry apology non-sense but I pretty much disagree with EVERYTHING he has ever done or said so nothing new here. I absolutely abhor everything about Iran but this was not a huge deal to me. Are they still holding the prisoners that we didn't get out during that ridiculous nuke deal? That burns me up way more than this.
January 15, 201610 yr I haven't read much (anything) on this, so forgive me if this has been addressed...Why did we have a boat in Iranian waters to begin with? According to the article, mechanical problems, drifted into Iranian waters. That is my understanding as well. I can only imagine the conversations that took place while the sailors were detained but yet folks wanted to nuke Iran. The rhetoric going on not only on here but throughout the United States was unreal. Especially looking at things people who make important decisions with our country were saying. I used to want Trump as POTUS just to watch the comedy ensue. Now I am truly worried that Trump will make multiple 9/11s happen.
January 15, 201610 yr The only two things I don't like about our response was the solider being video taped apologizing and Kerry's response.
January 15, 201610 yr Read an article today regarding Trump. There are petitions being considered in both Irish and UK Parliaments to ban him from their countries. Foreign Policy and Diplomatic Relations may NOT be in his wheelhouse.

It's not like Iran would hold these men and women hostage for 444 days or anything.
