Hadi will negotiate their freedom!  On another note there is no way he will be competing at the Olympia.

Noticed that tanker riding high in the water.

It looks to be empty of cargo.

Noticed that too. And great weather, sunshine, calm seas, easy to board an unarmed and empty tanker

OLD NEWS but with that why do these cargo ships not have weapons on board they should have some of them trained in fire arms or at least have 5 to 8 trained guards on board if you consider the coast of a seized oil tanker full or not the cost to hire guards its cheap

What do you mean?

Iran has launched an unprovoked attack on British citizens and property.

AGREED but its Britain's fight the men were not harmed or killed so far im not saying its not fair play but we cannot just drop atom bombs on every nation who pulls this shit if so it would lead to every nation who hates us to join in and drop bombs on us..it sucks but sometimes youre hands are tied I was a marine so im always about protect your own..

Not unprovoked. It's tit for tat.

That ship was operating in breach of international sanctions though.

It doesn't really matter. If you seize a ship that belongs to a nation then that nation is bound to retaliate. Sanctions imposed by EU officials are about as meaningful to Iran as sanctions imposed by Iran would be to EU nations.

Hope it's not a modern Gulf of Tonkin. Some incident always seems to arise when major forces want to justify a military intervention.
