WASHINGTON (Reuters) - President Donald Trump said on Wednesday he had instructed the U.S. Navy to fire on any Iranian ships that harass it at sea, a week after 11 vessels from Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps Navy (IRGCN) came dangerously close to U.S. ships in the Gulf.

“I have instructed the United States Navy to shoot down and destroy any and all Iranian gunboats if they harass our ships at sea,” Trump wrote in a tweet, hours after Iran’s Revolutionary Guards Corps said it had launched the country’s first military satellite into orbit.

Of course, he did. Donny Bag-A-Donuts needs a fighting war to distract from the fact that Americans are dying at an alarming rate because he thought it as more important to play golf and hold rallies than to address C***D19.

The man is a miscreant of the first order and giving him another four years only the r****ded right would think is a good idea.

The right must have surely realized that when trump was elected that they couldn't keep him, it's like

having a rabid dog for a pet, you know that sooner or later you are going to have to say goodbye to him.

It's a miracle he lasted this long.

U.S. Navy ships have the right according to international sea law, to operate without harassment in international waters. The Iranians, and everyone else who has a navy, knows this.

Ships that come within a few yards create a shipping hazard, and potential loss of life if collisions happen.

Even without P**********l advisory, ship captains are the final authority as to reacting to any danger his/her ship must navigate.

PS - As I thought; you two don't have the combined IQ of a fern.

Only a small mind like yours would have to go to personal insults during what was a civil conversation.
I see you are trying to emulate, LWW and Angmo. If I were you, I'd find another role model.

The last thing we need right now is to engage Iran. Its just as easy to avoid any confrontation.

I don't want to see our ships harassed but I think this can handled in a better way then starting a war. I think warning shots first or helping them by bring in air cover. We don't need a war in the middle of a p******c.

From recent personal experience, your responses to me have been insulting without provocation. So kind of like the pot calling the kettle black

War? There will be no war, just some gun boats at the bottom of the sea.

Nobody suggested to engage Iran, we are suggesting that Iran not engage us.
