What kind of speedboat is that?
Heres a link to a pic for those of you that didn't see it.
The next pic should have been that thing in pieces floating on the water.

Here's my take.

That cruiser has radar that can scan the water surface to the
horizon. So they knew those boats were coming for a long time.

So

- Staged ? For some political reason. Don't think so.

or

- Let them get close, see what they are up to, then follow
them home with a drone at 30k ft. Maybe find the whole navy.

And release the video for that politcal reason.

Never even thought about it and we don't know if it was staged but..
Does it seem kind of odd that they're wearing PFD's?
I can't enlarge it enough but the guy sitting in back on the starboard side doesn't look real Iranaian either.....
Just have to wonder....???

No way, get them before they get us...

If you had a few thugs hangin around outside your house late at night, and they are coming up on your porch - what do you do? I say take action and don't wait until they make a move.
