“Most U.S. news accounts last night quickly skimmed over — or outright ignored — the rather critical fact that the U.S. ships had ‘drifted into’ Iranian waters. Instead, all sorts of TV news personalities and U.S. establishment figures puffed out their chest and instantly donned their Tough Warrior pose to proclaim that this was an act of aggression — virtually an act of war: not by the U.S., but by Iran. They had taken our sailors ‘hostage,’ showing yet again how menacing and untrustworthy they are. Somehow, the U.S. media instantly converted the invasion of Iranian waters by U.S. ships into an act of aggression by Iran.”
