  2. The US has hated Iran ever since the Iranian ppl revolted against the US backed Shah in 1979. Now in 2023 the US continues to antagonizes Iran in the hopes of destabilizing the country and get its natural resources (oil).

  3. Great job Navy

    And iran you keep doing stupid stuff like this it's not gonna end well for you

    You best mind your own business not sure if you understand anything but it goes like this : so there's always a guy is is well known to be the biggest baddest everybody knows it but he respects everybody as well a good man who speaks well but carries a big stick then there a little guy who is jealous and keeps tempting fate by pushing the big dudes buttons all the time until one time he crossed that thin red line and got destroyed you see that big guy is America and the little guy is you iran

  4. Their luck us didn't make their ships stationary submarines

  5. Bro we need to just put a drone up and start sinking these boats.

  6. Once again USA spending millions of Department of Defense Funds to defend a BRITISH FLAGGED SHIP.. It never ends the amount of US TAXPAYER DOLLARS used to defend others property and money..

  7. US regime is panicked whenever they see Iranians they kneel and cry before Iran's navy,i don't believe your propaganda m

  8. USA should be limited to their own borders

  9. I served in the US Navy, and was shocked at how many Oil tankers we protect. When I got out of the military I put solar on my house and bought a Tesla. We need to get off of foreign oil and use less. We canโ€™t completely get away from it but if we just use it just for manufacturing, that would be Amazing

  10. This is old news NBC, and also lacks the proper context as usual.

  11. when there is oil
    there is freedom ๐Ÿ˜‚
    keep it up human rights saviour's ๐Ÿ˜‚

  12. LOL. Yeah if I saw a navy destroyer I'm hightailing it out of there.

  13. He almost pronounced Iran correctly, but then he pronounced it in english๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ท

  14. Where did the tankers leave from, Syria ?

  15. US is the one and only pirate in this world

  16. Perhaps consider sending the Iranian navy to the bottom of the sea.

  17. After Afghanistan I wonder who is gunna be the next villain

  18. Of course Iran will say it did nothing wrong. There is absolutely no evidence that the Chevron ship acted aggressively or illegally.
