    England or the United States wouldn't even really have to wage war on them. All we'd have to do is sink their navy (all five ships), put their planes out of the sky, and then sit there and let them starve to death.

    We can see any uranium enrichment site they set up from orbit and put a cruise missile on it from just about anywhere. There's nobody left in the region who would ally with them publicly and even Saudi Arabia would let us launch strikes on Iran from out of their territory.

    It's a no win situation for them. They can SAY whatever they want, be however belligerent they want in their rhetoric ... but actually trying to seize a foreign ship ... that's just incredibly stupid.

    It seems you are ignoring Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, China and Russia.

    The ship seizure is total BS propoganda by West.

    Just like the tanker attacks.

    Watch anymore Iranian oil tankers heading into the Med will be escorted by Russian warships.

    Also Iran has subs operating in the Indian ocean.

    Before anybody says "We know where every one of these subs are", that's a myth.

    If its a fact Chinese subs wouldn't surface in the middle of our fleets and commanders be fired. There wouldn't be collisions between US subs and ships and ship on ship collision.

    Iraq is a puppet state controlled by US hegemony. Syria is not a major military power, certainly not a naval one. Lebanon? Not even as strong as Syria.

    I would agree that if China or Russia start backing Iran then it changes the situation significantly, but I haven't seen any signs that they're going to.

    US can not target Iran nuclear power plant its being protected by Russian air defenses, Russian flagged since Russians are working at these facilities.

    This is the real reason Trump called off the strikes on Iran, since it would have resulted in Russian deaths.

    US forces are based in Syria and Iraq. If you think they are safe after US led attack on Iran then you will be mistaken. US troops will be paraded as prisoner of war along with our dead.

    The Latest: Concern grows over UAE-based oil tanker

    By The Associated Press
    DUBAI, United Arab Emirates — July 16, 2019, 5:46 AM ET

    The Latest on tensions in the Persian Gulf amid a crisis between the United States and Iran (all times local):

    1:40 p.m.

    Tracking data shows an oil tanker based in the United Arab Emirates traveling through the Strait of Hormuz drifted off into Iranian waters and stopped transmitting its location over two days ago, raising concerns about its status amid heightened tensions between Iran and the U.S.

    It's not immediately clear what happened to the Panamanian-flagged oil tanker Riah late on Saturday night.

    However, Capt. Ranjith Raja of the data firm Refinitiv told The Associated Press on Tuesday that the tanker hadn't switched off its tracking in three months of trips around the UAE.

    Raja said: "That is a red flag."

    Iranian officials haven't said anything publicly about the ship, nor have officials in the UAE. The U.S. Navy's 5th Fleet, which oversees Mideast waters, declined to immediately comment.

    ———

    12:35 p.m.

    Iran has confirmed it arrested a female researcher with dual French-Iranian nationality.

    The confirmation came during a press conference by Iranian judiciary spokesman Gholamhossein Esmaili on Tuesday. Esmaili was asked by reporters about the fate of Fariba Adelkhah.

    Esmaili said "the person is among suspects who were recently arrested" and that more details about the case would be announced later. That's according to the website of the judiciary.

    France on Monday said it was seeking information about Adelkhah and demanded consular access to her "without delay."

    Iranian opposition websites based abroad have said she disappeared in June in Tehran. Iran occasionally detains dual nationals on security charges.

    Iran also holds Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe, arrested in April 2016 on charges of plotting against the Iranian government. Her family denies the allegations.

    Iran doesn't recognize dual nationality.

    ———

    11:20 a.m.

    Iran's foreign minister has for the first time suggested his country's ballistic missile program could be on the table for negotiations with the U.S. — if America stops selling arms to its Gulf allies in the Mideast.

    Mohammad Javad Zarif's comments came in an NBC News interview that aired Monday night.

    Iran long has maintained its ballistic missile program, under the control of its Revolutionary Guard, is for defensive purposes only. The 2015 nuclear deal that Tehran struck with world powers did not include its missile program.

    Zarif says American weaponry "is going into our region, making our region ready to explode. So if they want to talk about our missiles, they need first to stop selling all these weapons."

    Iran long has criticized U.S. arms sales in the region.
