The US ship repeats its message to the boats by radio transmission: "You are approaching coalition warship operating in international waters. Request you establish communications, identify yourself and state your intentions." In the video tape, these words are nearly drowned out by the repeated blare of a US ship's warning horn.
After the video tape turns black, the audio track resumes with an accented, deep male voice saying clearly in English, "I am coming to you." He emphasizes the word "coming" and stretches out the word "you."
An American voice is then heard: "Inbound small craft: You are approaching a coalition warship operating in international waters. Your identity is not known; your intentions are unclear. You are sailing into danger and may be subject to defensive measures. Request you establish communications now or alter your course immediately to remain clear. Request you alter course immediately to remain clear."
Accented voice in English: "You will explode after (indecipherable) minutes."
American voice, apparently speaking to fellow crew members: "He says, 'You will explode after a few minutes.'"
