First assessment blames Iran for Middle East ship explosions, official says

President Trump warns Iran of consequences of potential attack

Trump says 'bad problem' may await Iran as the U.S. bulks up its military presence in the Persian Gulf; State Department correspondent Rich Edson reports.

An American military team assessing blasts that damaged four commercial ships off the coast of the United Arab Emirates (UAE) Sunday has blamed Iran or Iranian-backed proxies using explosive charges, a source told Fox News on Monday evening.

Each ship had a 5-to-10-foot hole in it, near or just below the water line, a U.S. official told The Associated Press. A Norwegian-flagged vessel, two Saudi oil tankers and a bunkering tanker flagged in Sharjah, one of the UAE's seven emirates, all suffered similar damage Sunday.

The UAE asked the U.S. to help investigate the damage, which Gulf officials have characterized as sabotage. UAE's state media said Sunday there had been "no injuries or fatalities on board the vessels" and "no spillage of harmful chemicals or fuel."

The U.S. has warned ships that "Iran or its proxies" could be targeting maritime traffic in the region, and America has moved additional ships and aircraft into the region.

President Trump warned Iran on Monday afternoon it will "suffer greatly" if the country does "anything" in the form of an attack. That statement came three days after Iran warned it easily could destroy a naval fleet sent by the United States in order to ward off a potential threat to U.S. commercial interests.

That incident came after months of increasing diplomatic and economic pressure on Iran, which the U.S. has accused of threatening American interests and allies in the region, including Saudi Arabia and the UAE.

Fox News' Lucas Tomlinson and The Associated Press contributed to this report.

We have the Buff's there and I am sure these were upgraded to the Cylindrical Launchers ......Meaning a whole lot more Whoops Ass....Then there is the USS Abraham Lincoln  and the planes....More 24-7 Whoop Ass. Then Trump sent 1 or 2 Missile Cruisers....Plus there are M.O.A.B. s hanging out somewhere just waiting to be dropped.....Iran does have a chance......Should they get lucky and hit one US Ship Israel is chopping at the bit to get rid of Iran, Hezbollah, Gaza and anyone else that they deem a threat .

 

The bigger question is the fall out......Say Crap Happens......Are You Ready here, where you and your family live? They, the Enemy is Here and they know who goes where, the shopping spots, the Churches, the Schools.....You can bet that if Crap goes down in the ME with Iran it will blow back to all the So Called friendly muslims in what ever state you live.

 

Iran can't win a balls to the wall war with America and Israel but they sure as hell can try to break the will of the American.....It has been tried in the past and never  worked and it wont work this time either.

Take care of them with self defense of course.

Check list:

shooting them in the face and not in the back running away - check, 

In your home with your property in thier hands - check.

Maybe a wife or child tied up/ kidnapped being threatened - check, or Hillarious style - suicide by gunshot in back of head - check. Joking/ satire purposes only.
