Iran Captures Three British Boats

Iran wants to play the tough-guy. With the second-most powerful navy in the region, at least.

What might account for this hostile action?

Mort Kondracke reported on the Beltway Boys on Saturday (can't find a link) that the US had agreed to sell Israel KC-135 Stratotankers. These massive aerial-refueling planes will allow heavily-armed Israeli F-15's to fly as far as, oh, who knows, let's say Teheran, and carry out strategic bombing missions against, oh, who can say what they'd be used against, let's say nuclear reactors and uranium-enrichment factories.

One can only hope that Israel is readying a plan to take out whatever needs to be taken out in Iran. Soon.

Iran better have a clear claim to a territorial violation. If I remember correctly, England doesn't like peoeple fucking with their boats.

I suspect this will end quickly, because Iran will quickly realize they are careening downhill on an icy road toward an oak tree with an 80 mile per hour wind at their backs.

I do so love the word "quickly".

I wonder if the Iranians will discover that, in fact, there is no cannibalism in the Royal Navy. None.

And when you say none, you mean some, right Nathan?

I'm frankly surprised the title is 107 Days. I would have thought it would be:

Days Are Important: The Amount of Days Was a Number and That Number Was 100 Plus 7 Which is 107. 107. One Hundred and Seven. It's a Memoir and Memoirs are About Remembering Things Because Remembering Things is Good. Not Bad. Good. Memoir. A Memoir. Like a Reservoir But With Memory. We Have to Let it Flow. We Have to Let It Flow Into the Reservoir of Our Mind and Our Heart. Our Heart Which is the Beating Heart of Not Just Our Blood, But Our Progress. And Our People. And Democracy. The End.

Former CIA operative John Kiriakou talks with Matt Taibbi about the Brennan/Comey Coup
Both guys are old liberals, maybe even of the far-left variety, and both are appalled by the Democrat/Deep State coup against the US. Kiriakou says that CIA officers were legally obligated to report to the Inspector General John Brennan's repeated overruling of actual intelligence to encode his partisan conspiracy theories into US intel product, but of course they didn't.
