Maybe once Obama leaves office, he can stop by and say a few words. Since he is the man who made this happen.
Iran’s Revolutionary Guard is planning to build a statue of the US sailors who were captured in Iranian waters earlier this year, a senior officer said.
Commander Ali Fadavi, the head of the Guard’s naval forces, said the monument of the surrendering Americans would be a “tourist attraction”.
“There are very many photographs of the major incident of arresting US Marines in the Persian Gulf in the media and we intend to build a symbol out of them inside one of our naval monuments,” he told Iran’s Defense Press news agency.
Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, Iran’s supreme leader, said the arrest of the sailors was “Allah’s deed” and presented medals to the Iranians involved.
While the Obama administration expressed outrage over the incident, officials said later that the sailors swift release was evidence that communication between the US and Iran was improving after years of estrangement.
Clearly, there's so much improvement happening here. I'm not sure how much more improvement we can take.
Just imagine what sort of statues they'll be building once they nuke New York.
