Besties: Iran Seizes Two Navy Ships, Ten US Sailors

Smaaaaht Power.

-- The crew of two small Navy craft are being held by Iran, but American officials have received assurances from Tehran that the crew and vessels will be returned safely and promptly.
Pentagon spokesman Peter Cook told The Associated Press that the boats were moving between Kuwait and Bahrain when the U.S. lost contact with them.

We'll see how much Iran respects Obama by how quickly the ships and men are released -- if they hold them during Obama's SOTU, while Obama's still praising Iran, that could be awkward.
