Awake Goy 
Our new BFF, Iran, has seized two of our U.S. Navy boats — with 10 of our sailors on them. Yep, just a few hours before President Obama takes the podium to regal us with his myriad accomplishments — like the stellar nuclear deal with Iran — in his final State of the Union (SOTU) address. And just days before receiving certification that it’s met its obligations under the nuclear pact, opening the door to billions of dollars in sanctions relief.
As Col. West noted, there’s something fishy about the whole situation unfolding in the Persian Gulf today, despite attempts by U.S. officials to downplay the incident. As The Hill reports:
Sen. Barbara Boxer, a Democrat from California, downplayed Tuesday’s incident on MSNBC. She said the two U.S. ships had a “mechanical problem” and weren’t “planning to be anywhere near Iran-claimed territory.”
Meanwhile, Secretary of State John Kerry has been “in touch with Iranian authorities on this issue,” according to a senior administration official.
Well, that should makes us all shudder, knowing that none other than the guy whose pictured under “feckless” in the dictionary, Secretary of State Kerry, is on the case.
But leave it to White House spokesman Josh Not-so-Earnest though to make the most inane comment of all in response to Iran’s provocative behavior.
Via The Blaze:
White House press secretary Josh Earnest said the White House is actively monitoring the unfolding situation with Iran, adding that such “provocative” behavior from the Islamic Republic is why President Barack Obama made negotiating the nuclear deal a top priority.
“This is obviously a situation that we are monitoring closely,” Earnest told CNN host Jake Tapper. “We’ve received assurances from the Iranians that both our sailors are safe and they are being sort of afforded the proper courtesy that you would expect.”
“We’ve also most importantly received assurances that they will be allowed to continue their journey promptly,” he added, noting that the White House was “still learning more” about the situation.
Tapper pressed Earnest on whether the U.S. should continue with plans to relieve sanctions on Iran in the coming days as part of the nuclear agreement.
“In a few days they are scheduled to have the relief of all those sanctions,” Tapper said. “The basic question being: this does not seem like a country that is ready to be welcomed back to the community of nations.”
“That’s right, Jake,” Earnest said. “Certainly the United States has been concerned with the kind of provocative, destabilizing actions that have been a hallmark of Iranian behavior over the last several decades. In fact, that is why the United States and this president made it a priority to organize the international community to reach an agreement with Iran that will prevent them from obtaining a nuclear weapon.”
He added, “That’s an indication that we are making some progress countering the threat that is imposed by Iran.”
Tapper didn’t appear sold.
“I hear you, but they have 10 American sailors in custody right now, Josh. I think there are a lot of Americans watching right now that are wondering why we are about to give them sanction relief when they have 10 Americans — whenever they have them,” Tapper said.
“Well, these were sanctions that were imposed on Iran over their nuclear program,” Earnest responded, adding that the U.S. “will continue to have sanctions on Iran” over the country’s support for terrorism.
Earnest added, “We continue to be concerned about this situation. That precisely is why the president made preventing Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon a top national security priority.”
But of course. Thanks, Josh, for clearing that all up. So, if I understand what you’re saying, Josh, today’s seizure of 10 Americans should be viewed separately from the nuclear agreement. Kinda like the four Americans held hostage by Iran that didn’t make the cut for the deal? Yep, let’s keep on relieving those sanctions while they hold our American sailors.
It all makes perfect sense — in Obama’s America.
Can’t wait to see what the State of the Union speechwriters come up with to address this. The provocative behavior from Iran today is certainly one of President Obama’s legacies — though not the kind he should be bragging about.
