That is, quite simply, a gross misrepresentation of what actually happened. The US government officially attempted to blame it on Iran, but the facts of that occurrence point overwhelmingly point to huge mistakes on the part of the US cruiser that blew them up, similar to how Russians shot down an airliner a few years ago, the Soviets shot down KAL 007 and we shot down an F-18 just a few months ago. You really need to go back and read the story of what happened. Just like all those other governments screwed one up, we screwed this one up.
