Why would they risk having so many men in such close proximity to an unexploded mine, it simply does not make sense.

They recovered the defective US bomb, just in case Trump would say he wants it back.

It's a half mile away, it's flying, it's at max zoom, and the video is cropped so that all the information displayed on the video scene cannot be seen.

FLIR cameras are notorious for their bad quality because they are better at NIGHT, where they see heat signatures.

And the Camera is at least 25 years old.

The Iranians were rescuing the survivors, not removing a mine. The cargo vessel was not hit by a mine. Japan is denying that it was because the explosion happened above the water line and their people on the vessel reported seeing flying objects before the explosion, possibly bullets.

If they were lies wouldn't it be so much easier for you to disprove them with the real facts backed by evidence.

I was the first one to say it was a limpet mine that caused the damage to these ships while everyone else was screaming that they were attacked by torpedoes or RPG's.

I knew because I have studied what the Iranians have done over the last 40 years since the Islamic revolution...

Their military is capable of pulling off this sort of attack and they train terrorists to do these things as well and have had terrorist training camps in their country since the revolution.

By the way, in none of my posts on this incident have I once said that the US should go to war with Iran or do anything about what they did to these vessels.

My only goal here is to accurately determine what happened and who did it, if it is the Iranians I already know the why they did it, they have been saying for years that the Straights of Hormuz belong to them and all shipping through it must pay them for the right to traverse the area based upon the tonnage of cargo on board.

In short extortion on the high seas, Iran is not a signatory of any international agreements concerning the law of the seas, or the Geneva conventions, so they can pretty much do whatever they want to stop shipping in "their" waters.

The Arab nations on the other side of Persian gulf see Iran as a viable threat to their exports of oil.

Now it is up to you to prove everything I have said is wrong...

Sure. A drone, hundreds of miles out in the ocean, at night, is supposed to take crystal clear videos from far enough away that the people being spied on can't hear the drone. You're not being realistic at all in your expectations.

The fact is the Iranians got caught red handed.

They're guilty as sin.

The only reason they knew that mine was there was because they put it there.

The only way they could take it off the vessel THAT FAST is because they are the ones with the key needed to immediately disarm the mine.

Iran did it. They're caught. It's time for the USA and other countries to bomb the shit out of Revolutionary Guard naval bases to let Iran see what happens when they attack unarmed merchant vessels.

Except that it was a boat load of Iranian revolutionary guards sent to recover the mine by force if necessary before the US Navy did.
