When I compare the US vs. the Al Jazeera report on the boating incident in the Strait of Hormuz, I am inclined to believe the Al Jazeera one. Before Bush uses this to start WWIII, I hope we can get a little closer to the truth about what really happened. To my eyes it looks like a bunch of kids out for a Sunday spin as opposed to someone’s quote that it was “clearly aggressive action”. The likelihood of those sailors being allowed to talk freely abut the incident is nil, so again we’ll have to wait.
It defies the logic, but why, to me, does Strait of Hormuz rhyme with Tonkin Gulf?
