Because Mr. CIWS is now free to entertain himself.

I have a pretty good idea why but they'll never believe me so they just have to figure it out for themselves.

Hint: Begins with T.

They have threatened and fired on our forces in Syria and we responded several times. Responses in war are serious, no bluff. Iran is evil, but not stupid. They get it now.

They must know that we mean business.

And our embedded enemies in our Federal agencies must understand the days of playing stupid games is over.

It is time to clean house. Internally and externally. Not being provocative but acting with resolve to each threat against the nation and our allies.

the routine harassment of US ships from Iranian boats has ceased. And the Navy can't figure out why.

I'm sure all real military personnel know exactly why Iran is treating us with respect again. Someone quickly did what it took to Make America Great Again.

Because President Eunuch has been replaced by an actual man.

I think many ships have shifted to a ‘smarter’ RAM (rolling airframe missile IIRC) in lieu of the CIWS ‘gattling gun.’
