Iranian boats attempted to seize British tanker

Abu musa is a disputed island.this island name written clearly on BBC article and also Aurora Intel data provide details.it is true that Irani boats moved towards emirati coast.they were their even yesterday.

This is a small island that will disappear under the waves over the next few thousand years due to climate change.

Sorry, I don't understand your logic here. What does Abu Musa have to do with three Iranian boats? So according to you Iranian military boats are free to move in Emirate's territorial waters all the time without any reaction from Emirates? Because the area that Aurora Intel shows is within Emirate's territorial waters. Anyway lets drop it here.
 
You didn't get my point. The three moving objects on Aurora Intel come North side and go towards south which is where Emirate's shores is. If they were Iranian boats and were retreating, they they would go back towards Iran which is on the north side.

I had red this news:

A British Ministry of Defense source told CNN that it "appeared that the Iranian vessels were trying to divert the Heritage from international to Iranian waters" before the British Navy ship HMS Montrose "got between them and issued a verbal warning to withdraw."

"Appeared" to me means British Frigate overreacted. When you want to divert a ship you board it and that can be done with a navy helicopter as well.
'Cause it's fake ...
Attacking tankers in Fujairah ..
Then attacking tankers in gulf of Oman ...
Sending Mq-9 into Iranian airspace ...
Then sending global hawk close to Iranian airspace and eventually violating it while is being followed by P8 ...
Then american RC-135 flew over Iranian isles and falsely signaled that it was an Iranian plane.
Seizing Iranian tanker by British colonial pirate navy ...
Beside all stop passing nuclear related waivers to force Iran to violate the deal ..

But as far as I know no war is gonna happen but mostly to demonize Iran, justify their polices and finally put pressure on Iran .... what is important is they are gonna fail at this game.

There is no dispute over this isle ...
 
UK is basically doing the dirty work for US

Iran should have grabbed that tanker
 
Propaganda & fake news. it's the continuation of several fake newses which west is spreading right now, they are defeated in military so have started a war in media, don't fall for it.

Iranian traitor Rouhani and Zarif haven't ordered the seizure, so west is using this opportunity which their agents have created to advance their own propaganda.


IRGC already denied the news:
تکذیب ادعای قصد نیروی دریایی سپاه برای توقیف نفتکش انگلیسی در خلیج فارس | خبرگزاری فارس
I search throughout the internet to find the video of so called ' seiz ' but nowhere I get one . Gorge Gallowe challange for proof . But there is no proof .
 
"Appeared" to me means British Frigate overreacted. When you want to divert a ship you board it and that can be done with a navy helicopter as well.

But boarding either by ship to ship of by helicopter would be illegal. Playing chicken with the tanker captain and trying to get him to sail into Iranian territorial water still leaves a shred of deniability.

You didn't get my point. The three moving objects on Aurora Intel come North side and go towards south which is where Emirate's shores is. If they were Iranian boats and were retreating, they they would go back towards Iran which is on the north side.

When faced with twin Mk44 Bushmaster II's in a speed boat the correct direction to disengage is the fastest way to GTFO, worry about where you port is afterwards.

Lol that comment made my day do you want me to post the video that how hillarious it was when they tried to hit a slow moving boat with that gun and after 10min they still failed.
 
Because it was a successful deterrence.

You can try and say something like: 'I was only joking. I coulda take him if I wanted to.' No one will buy it. The Iranian Navy is not the US Navy.

If the US Navy -- with an aircraft carrier present -- says: ''I was only joking. I coulda take him if I wanted to.' The world would bet on US. Instead, what the world saw was a bunch of small boats driven off by a genuine warship.

Speedboats do not win battles. Real warships do...

This is what Iran sent -- the Iranian version of the US Navy WW II PT boats.

There was no 'spin'. The Iranian Navy was deterred. It looks like the Millennium Challenge exercise did not pay off for Iran, did it?

Has there been any footage of this encounter released or are we just supposed to take your word for it?
 
Tit for tat. Great move by the lonely Iran against Western criminals of worst kind.


Some people here seem to have a short memory. The British where not the first to start that " tankers " war.

It started in 12 of may - with attack on 4 ships in the Golf , 2 Saudi , one Norwegian and one UAE.

It continued on the 13 of June - attack on two ships : Japanese and Norwegian tankers , on one off them the Iranians where filmed taking a mine off.

Only than came the British response on the 4 of July.

This is not about one particular ship - Iranian or British - that situation can easily be solved.

This is about whether Iran intends to disrupt marine traffic in the Golf .

Show how Iranian commandos put the mine 3-4 m above water without anybody become wiser about it while the shoop was moving . and don't forget Iranian mines weigh 40kg

The claim is they removed it to cover the source of the mine.

As for the main issue , it is always good in this region to wait 2-3 weeks before reaching a concision. Let us see if the British tanker is the last ship to be disturbed in the Golf.

BTW what with the violent avatar ?
