Prince Harry was in the service. Send his Royal a$$ down there to reclaim their property.

Trump Backs Britain: ‘Iran Is In Big Trouble’

Bullshit. If Margret Thatcher was still Brit PM, yes...now, no so much.

LOL! Now the British and EU Governments have to side with Iran on this matter because Trump decided to support the UK.

I agree this is Britain’s problem but they will only have one chance to get it right.

I believe they should send in the necessary personnel to retake their property and when that has been accomplished take action to send an unmistakable message to the arrogant bastards in Iran.

My suggestion would be for Britain to seek out the two largest or most important ships in the Iranian Navy and sink them. It should be done both without warning and without acknowledging responsibility.

Repeat this each time the Iranians pull a stunt like this.

Let the Brits use their new Muslim Population to fight the Muslims for their property back?? Sounds like a Suicide Mission.

The UK needs to deal with this decisively. If they show weakness or are unable to reclaim the ship by themselves, Iran isn’t the only nation watching.

If the UK screws this up, look for Argentina/Falklands to flare up again. Britain doesn’t have their Cold War navy or Margaret Thatcher anymore.

Let’s do a little election meddling of our own. No assistance until the request comes from Boris Johnson.

We don’t need to involve ourselves. Make England man up and get their ships back themselves.

The British should be made to beg for US assistance (which means we put up all the assets and capital, i.e. we do it everything), on condition of a hard BREXIT immediately.

Otherwise these mofos can take care of their own tankers.
