FOX NEWS: Iran fired on an unarmed U.S. drone last week as it was hovering in international airspace, the Pentagon announced Thursday. Spokesman George Little said the incident occurred Nov. 1 at 4:50 a.m. ET. He said the unarmed, unmanned drone was conducting "routine surveillance" over the Persian Gulf when it was "intercepted" by Iran. He said the MQ1 Predator drone, which was not hit, was not in Iranian airspace. Little said the U.S. government has protested to the Iranians. Asked about how the U.S. could respond, he said: "We have a wide range of options from diplomatic to military."
Drone was 16 nautical miles(26 miles) off the coast of Kuwait, in the INTERNATIONAL WATERS. So it is a clear provocation from Iranian side, which is 'testing' how far can they go, before Obama does anything about it. And it is obvious, same as response in Benghazi, NO ACTION TAKEN !
Yep, some more news that wasn't going to be released until after the election.
ReplyDeleteThey can't really hover; they just fly in small, slow circles.
ReplyDeleteThey should shoot down every drone they can.
ReplyDeleteI'll shoot them if they fly over my house!
ReplyDeleteIran should get some credit for intentionally missing it.

ReplyDeleteNo you won't. You don't have anything to accomplish that.
