In the Iranian version, there is no hint of aggressive behaviour.Dropping large objects into the water near American warships is aggressive behavior. It really doesn't matter what you say or don't say.
The Iranians now know they can get within 300 yards of American Warships and drop mines in the water.

How interesting.
Did the Monkey also simulate the speed boat’s and the actions of the crew on board?

If true, I hate to say it, but RON PAUL just may have been right, the recent debate, urging coolness and getting all the facts before pulling the trigger. Lets double check all the facts.

The next time the Iranians play chicken with the U.S. Navy and get their sorry butts blown to pieces, they can put it on the Filipino Monkey.

How did this guy know that Iranian boats were swarming American ships and throwing white boxes in the sea at the time? Besides, don’t we have radio directional capabilities to determine where it’s coming from?

Was he driving the boats? If not the Iranians would be responsible for #1 not responding and #2 for getting their ships blown from the water.

"...On the Pentagon's version, a strange voice, in English, can be heard saying "I am coming to you. You will explode in a few minutes." The voice sounds different from one heard earlier in the recording and there is no background noise that would usually be picked up from a speedboat radio.
In the Iranian version, there is no hint of aggressive behaviour.
The Pentagon said it recorded the film and the sound separately and then edited them together to give a "better idea of what is happening"...."
The Pentagon should not have edited them together. It feeds the conspiracy nuts.

“Ham” indeed. Real licensed radio amateurs never do anything like this, right? Well, it could be the ghost of W2OY, but hectoring Persian Gulf radio traffic for twenty five years sounds a little much for the likes of that spectre or most rogue ops. I’m curious if there’s a Kenneth reading this mail that would know typical frequencies for this sort of communications. Wouldn’t all the Navy’s EW capabilities identify the Monkey’s source immediately, if not soon after the fact? And given the sensitivity of the region, wouldn’t all the electronic bells and whistles be turned on and tuned up? Too weird. On top of it all, the threats were delivered in a prank phone call voice, as if Eddy Haskell defected from the Highway Patrol to the Revolutionary Guard.

A heckling radio ham known as the Filipino Monkey, who has spent years pestering ships in the Persian Gulf, is being blamed today for sparking a major diplomatic row after American warships almost attacked Iranian patrol boats.
I am a licensed ham radio operator. There are several requirements to obtaining a ham license including an extensive exam in correct radio procedures and detailed electrical principles. The filipino monkey is probably not a real ham, but a moron with too much time on his hands.

This monkey needs to be spanked.
