(CNSNews.com) – "An act of God" was responsible for U.S. Navy sailors entering Iranian waters, leading to their arrest at gunpoint, Iranian supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei on Sunday told Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) members who detained the Americans.
"Your job was excellent, interesting and timely and, in fact, we must consider this incident as an act of God, who brought Americans into our waters so they would be arrested through your timely action and in that manner, with their hands held above their heads," Khamenei told the group in a face-to-face meeting, according to a report on the supreme leader's office website.
PORTSMOUTH, N.H. – After a massive storm slammed the East Coast with snow, ice and battering winds Saturday, New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie returned to his New Hampshire campaign on Sunday, where his wife, Mary Pat Christie had filled in for him since Friday, when Christie left the Granite State for New Jersey after forecasters indicated his state was in line for a direct hit by the blizzard working its way up the East Coast.
"She hung in there for me, doing my events, which means I am confident that my polls numbers have gone up," he joked to the crowd. His wife has had a successful Wall Street career in investment management. She stepped away last year while the governor campaigned for the Republican presidential nomination.
