No problem... now SecPompeo will condemn Iran for those 'Flying Objects' The matter is not how you want us to be guilty.. You need to make an excuse for your invasion, if there isnt any you have to make one!

DefenseOne we've seen MK62s being used with the Quickstrike ER naval mine package in recent testing, what is the possibility a similar package was used here via SDB? Would explain the 'flying objects' and limpet mine effect.

RN_Costello So what Pompeo, Trump et al. said was horse shit. What a surprise.

Whats flying? Flying from where? Mehn peeps can say crap in this world abeg !!!!

Trump used to complain the US was being taken advantage of for defending NATO without them paying their fair share. In an amazing 180 he wants to declare a war on behalf of Norway and Japan for free.

With the help of a little bit of Saké !

War is closer and closer?..
