Try it rag.

If you want your entire Navy and Air Force destroyed...just try it.

Of course it would set up for Trump just as compelling a reason to hire him in November as Obama bungles the response.

Threats such as these would be far less likely with Trump in the WH.

I have a feeling Iran will soon experience some ‘historical truths’ of their own.

Guess they’ve figured out this is a bigger threat now then when Trump’s President.

I hear the Navy has deployed attack drones that can take out Iranian mosquito boats by the hundreds. All that is needed is the will to use them, hint, hint!

King Obama just crapped his pants. This good for nothing stupid communists black Muslim terrorists is totally useless.

Trump would sink the entire Iranian fleet if they blocked the strait.

“I have a feeling Iran will soon experience some ‘historical truths’ of their own.”

But not untll some time after 1/20/17. Between now and then, the Ragheads know that our pResident Yellowstain Obola would just sit in the White Hut and crap his pants! Most “Zebras” are White with Black Stripes, ours is Black with Yellow Stripes.

I doubt it...Barry probably asked Iran to make this threat.

I’ll have mixed feelings if they do. It would be nice to see JFK and Baraq bin Obama humiliated.

On shore missile batteries would be more useful than the light patrol boats if the camel lovers decided to go that route.

In the straits, not so much all those little boats, as the surface-surface anti-ship missiles hidden in the hills. Got to get past them. Little boats are a PITA once into the gulf.

Since Iran has gotten most of what they wanted, I can’t see them actually confronting US unless their bomb is complete and ready for testing.

I am afraid something will be engineered, either let happen or from the shadows, to try to screw up the election.

Like some military action so they can say Hillary is ready to go on day 1. I'd still take Trump over her poor judgment.

If Hillary was so secretive as SOS, what on earth would she be as President? Don't think they couldn't cook up a better plan to hide things. I think her lust for power and hatred of Republicans is what drives her.
