The Iranian military has halted the routine harassment by its armed “fast boats” of U.S. naval vessels in the Persian Gulf, the U.S. military said, a turnabout that officials welcomed but were at a loss to explain.

Making America Great Again

Thank you President Trump
THey want Trump to keep the deal.
There’s a new Sheriff in town. Goes by the name of Trump.
TRUMP
There’s an shell of an Iranian gunboat with a Bofors on the tarmac at the UDT/Seal Museum on North Hutchinson Island. It’s one of my favorites. Just about guaranteed the Seals didn’t capture it during a Dem administration.
Yep. The Iranians were simply told “Don’t try that again. You won’t like the consequences. And that is our final warning.”
Its called RESOLVE. The WSJ is having a hard time understanding the meaning of that word.
Unexpected!!

Yep...that’d be my guess. Thank you, President Trump!!!

They released the hostages about 15 seconds AFTER Reagan was sworn in.

They were given a warning that if their conduct continued they would be blown out of the water. Thank you Mr. President
They’re refitting them with silkworms ...
I think Trump gave them 50+ tomahawks...er I mean reasons why they should stop behaving like idiots.
