Amid the political tensions between the U.S. and Iran over patrols in the Persian Gulf comes word that Iranian fishermen were rescued by a U.S. Navy destroyer after their boat was commandeered by suspected Somali pirates in the Arabian Sea. The rescue came just days after Tehran warned the U.S. to keep its warships out of the Persian Gulf. No comment from Iran on the goodwill gesture.
