Iran detains 10 US sailors after vessels stopped in the Gulf

 

The sailors were on two riverine patrol boats at the time of the incident

Iran has detained 10 US sailors after their vessels were stopped in the Gulf, a US official told the BBC.

"We lost contact with two small US naval craft en route from Kuwait to Bahrain," the official said.

He said that the Iranians informed the US that the sailors were safe and "will promptly be allowed to continue their journey".

The incident happened near Farsi Island after one of the ships encountered mechanical problems.

After the incident, US Secretary of State John Kerry immediately called Iranian Foreign Minister Javad Zarif to begin negotiations.

An unnamed official told the Associated Press that Mr Kerry "personally engaged with Zarif on this issue to try to get to this outcome".

Mr Kerry and Mr Zarif developed a personal relationship throughout three years of negotiating a nuclear deal.

Iran's semi-official news agency FARS reported that the Iranian Revolutionary Guard detained the nine men and one woman, and that they had been "trespassing" in Iranian waters.

It is not clear when the sailors will be released.

In December, Iran's navy conducted rocket tests near US warships and other commercial vessels in the Strait of Hormuz.

The tests were "highly provocative", a US military commander said at the time.

I agree, the US should stay out of Iranian waters and stop messing with the big boys, with the debt they're in one doubts they could afford a war.

 

If the Republicans win in 2016 I'd agree with that sentiment.

 

Dunno if you've been following the Primaries, but fucking hell...

 

Ted Cruz just called upon the Body of Christ to rise from the grave to help his campaign. So that's ambitious.

Nah min, I'm barely interested in politics here so give no thought to what goes on over there, would be a laugh to get Trump as President though, I'd like to see him win.

 

I did briefly flirt with politics during the referendum, as things have turned out with the oil price my opinion was wrong and the vote went the right way, won't be getting involved again, will leave it to people who know better than me.

I remember an Iranian or rather Persian wifie my mother knew and she was smokin, so I am pro-Iran

I was in Mexico a couple of years ago and an Iranian family were also in the hotel. The husband spent every day at the bar with us, he was fucking smashed on Johnnie Walker black label every afternoon, whilst his wife and kid did their own thing. Finally met his wife and she was out of this world, about 20 year younger than him and he couldn't be arsed with the cunt. She was beautiful.
