   Six Iranian gunboats unsuccessfully attempted to halt a U.S.-flagged oil   
   tanker in the Strait of Hormuz on Tuesday, The Wall Street Journal   
   reported.   
      
   The security firm Vanguard Tech told its clients on Tuesday that the   
   Iranian vessels were armed with .50-caliber guns, and they ordered the   
   oil tanker to turn off its engines and prepare to be boarded. Instead,   
   the tanker sped up and was ultimately escorted to safety by a U.S. Navy   
   vessel, according to the Journal.   
      
   The Pentagon did not immediately respond to a request for comment from   
   Fox News Digital.   
      
   The incident comes as the U.S. continues to ramp up its military   
   presence surrounding Iran, with President Donald Trump describing an   
   "armada" arrayed in the area.

   Kill them all.  Not one second of mercy.
