These guys got set up. They got in trouble, called for help and the Administration called Iran for help. Gee, thanks a lot.

Something is just not right with the whole story. Not sure how, but it is just plain suspicious.

UM, sim cards could contain Evidence that the Iranians spoofed the GPS signal and led the two boats astray, like they did to that Sentinel Drone in 2011

There was a former navy Captain on the John Batchelor show several nights ago who said the US boats would normally be commanded by a senior enlisted person, not an officer. Initial reports from the Pentagon via Barbara Starr on CNN said the navy had lost contact with the boats and was worried about personnel possibly being in the water.

Treason. Life sentences for all involved.

The second group of USN personnel to cowardly hand secrets to the enemy.

Cards removed from phones, by whom

I think it more likely the Iranians closed down on the two boats than vice-versa... and were jamming radio communications. No doubt they’d love to grab this stuff and occam’s razor would apply on this simple ‘we dropped the ball and Iran got lucky’ story. But, I’m just wondering ‘what if’ the SIM cards could have been removed BEFORE they set out as ‘insurance’ by a saboteur to cover what Iranian jamming may not be able to jam? That this ‘blooper’ happened the day of the SOTU is just too rich... like IRGC won the lottery.

Or is someone just leaking to try to provide an explanation for those who know the boats gave sat phones, to explain away why they weren’t used, or just because they’re torqued off by the humiliation of the USN by this Admin? Up to now everyone’s been wondering how neither boat could get out any more messages after the one bleat on the radio.

Or, maybe the reason this SIM card tale has been leaked is because they were removed afterwards on orders of the WH to remove evidence that they were ordered to stop and surrender - in the event an inquiry is ever made? I’m too cheap to buy a good phone, don’t know much about the SIM
in mine, much less a sat phone.

"Now we know the Admin helped deliver highly classified security data to the Iranians with this set up."

AKA... the Traitorobama regime gave aid and comfort to the enemy.... yet again.

And Traitorcongress still does............................................ nothing........ yet again.

That’s the best explanation so far. The Iranians are a strange bunch, willing to give the world - esp. the US black eye after black eye in every weasely way, yet always wanting to appear to be going by international law, making a point to play the put-upon victim . Desperation for foreign cash but unable to kick the habit? Or they just know what’s important to their progressive left propagandists?

I have to say that is a very good analysis of this situation and of the general situation we find ourselves in these days.

You clearly stated the MSM’s inferred explanation of the incident.

Check out this Euro Times story:

http://www.eutimes.net/2016/01/obama-destroyed-after-us-navy-boats-transporting-top-isis-terror-leader-captured-by-iran/

The Ministry of Defense (MoD) is reporting today that the Obama regimes “master plan” for dealing with theIslamic Republic of Iran has been “completely destroyed” after special naval forces belonging to the Army of the Guardians of the Islamic Revolution (Sepāh) during the past fortnight captured two “highly armed and sophisticated” United States Navy Riverine Command Boats (RCB) under the command of the Navy Expeditionary Combat Command (NECC) operating from the US Fifth Fleet in Bahrain who were transporting to Kuwait for transfer to Syria of a “top level” Islamic State (ISIS/ISIL/Daesh) terror commander.

As these boats approached, they couldn’t think of what to do with two encrypted phones.
There in the middle of the water, far from land. with a small phone or removable sim card. And the solution didn’t occur to these idiots.

Idiots. Blithering, cowardly, unprofessional idiots.
