Iranian naval fleets were on their way across the Atlantic Ocean and headed toward the US, the Fars news agency reported on Saturday.

“Iran’s military fleet is approaching the United States’ maritime borders, and this move has a message,” Adm. Afshin Rezayee Haddad of Iran’s Northern Navy Fleet was quoted as saying.

This is the country who has displayed phony stealth fighters and claims to have put a monkey into orbit. I’ll believe their claims when the ships actually show up somewhere.

Wooden park benches float better than these after they've been hit with missiles or CWIS.

I heard the othe rnight that Obama is no longer considered the most powerful man in the world. That is because everyone knows what a coward he is.

People will stop laughing when the Iranian Navy hooks tactical nukes onto a squadron of drones and flies them into downtown Washington D.C.

I’m waiting for at least 2 FReepers to reassert their position taken yesterday that they (and NK) have every right to take an aggressive posture against us.

Don’t forget the fags lead and roam the ships freely now. It’s not the same navy you and I were in.

Gee, and what would happen to Iran if they did such a thing? Assuming the Coward in Chief was in D.C. and was killed along with the bulk of our Federal Government, what do you think our response would be?

And I mean the response of what is left of our military chain of command.

Would you want to be anywhere near Iran if it came to such a scenario?

Is there an implied EMP threat here? Warships, or any ships, that get close to the coast would have an easy time launching a missile up over the USA. Our antimissile response would have to be near instantaneous and 100%. A freighter could launch one or two of those things. A couple of warships would surely have a capacity to launch a bunch of them simultaneously.
