You would think Iran wouldn't want to antagonize the United States when sanctions are going to be lifted shortly on top of everything else they're dealing with.

Iran is really tempting the hand of god right now.

White House Press Secretary on tv now. Said nothing new except they've been in contact with Iran and Iran has assured them safe return of the sailors.

TERRIBLE day for this news to break

Why were they in the area? I'm pretty sure Iran would've gave the US a warning, before they approached the area.
