Most likely shot and killed and Navy is keeping it under wraps.

Valerie Jarrett probably tipped off the Iranians.

Sounds like a lie. It was my understanding it was bound for Somalia.
They just want war.
Fight it without white men. Good luck.

Sickening to see the continued abuse of spec ops men. Hit that well identified boat with the 5 inch gun and be done with it.

The abuse of spec ops men continues. We use them because we do not have the stomach for normal operations.

This story didn’t smell right when it came out, and now it’s just getting worse. Believe NOTHING the Public Masters say.

It’s a lot safer to just blow them up from 20 miles away.

“... The IRGC’s overall presence inside Yemen is overseen by Gen. Abdul Reza Shahlai, a Tehran-based commander whom the Trump administration attempted to assassinate in a 2020 drone strike inside Yemen, U.S. and Mideast officials said. American intelligence believes Shahlai is deeply involved in Tehran’s overseas terrorist operations through his role as the Qods Force’s deputy commander.

This includes a role in overseeing an unsuccessful 2011 Iranian plot to assassinate Saudi Arabia’s then-ambassador to the U.S., Adel al-Jubeir, at a Washington, D.C. restaurant. Shahlai, who’s been sanctioned by the U.S. Treasury Department, also helped oversee IRGC attacks against U.S. military personnel in Iraq over the past two decades. The Department of Justice offered $15 million in 2019 for information related to the commander’s operations and networks.....”

When first reading about this story I kept asking myself, what ship/boat were they boarding? This was never mentioned and apparently still isn’t officially acknowledged. Curious.

And assuming it wasn’t a ‘drone dhow’ (if such a thing exists) it was manned. Manned by whom? And would they be the types of men who might resist being boarded? If weapons were seized, then wouldn’t the crew, if still alive, also be in our hands?

I realize it is hard to believe /s but our government is not being straight with us.
