Iranian Vessels Make 'High-Speed Intercept' Of U.S. Ship
They don't call the USS Nitze a destroyer for nothing.
The ship is manned with multiple modern weapons systems and is quite capable of dispatching four Iranian boats, and much more, yet the risk-adverse civilian and military leadership at the helm in the Pentagon allowed this multi-million dollar warship to be harassed by the second-rate Iranian navy, just as the U.S. Navy allowed the Iranians to capture our boats and sailors a while back.
And, you may recall, Secretary of State John Kerry publicly thanked the Iranians for the humiliation.
Clearly, the Iranians - and the rest of the world - have no respect for the United States Navy.
