Saw the guy at a comedy club in West Hollywood a couple of years ago. I think I actually posted about it here. He was quite funny! http://bbs.clutchfans.net/showthread.php?p=5543828&highlight=funny#post5543828 Didn't mention him by name, but he made me laugh.
Meh the us has a permanent base in bahrain and do naval exercises there all the time. I actually visited Bahrain once, its quite a nice place, its where Arabs go to party I suppose. Bahrain is kind of like the Macau of Arabia. But nevertheless I don't see a problem with the Iranians doing some naval exercises, I'd rather them waste their time on a ship instead of a enrichment facility.
I am the farthest thing from a neo-con/right wing zealot/war mongerer , but the U.S under Obama (and its NATO allies) are absolutely bending over and taking it in the rear from Iran, Russia, and China. You have a maniac of a dictator and one of the most notorious terror sponsor in Bashar Al-Assad massacring 60,000+ innocent men, women, and children using Russian and Chinese weapons not to mention thousands of Iranian "revolutionary guard" (ie: trained thugs) while the U.S sits idly watching with our thumbs up our a$$es. What a freakin' embarrassment. Let's forget the humanitarian situation for a second and say "it's their problem not ours" (which is totally f'd up in my opinion btw, but let's go with it), we are totally getting pushed around strategically and geopolitically in that region, losing a lot of grip, and inciting new found hatred among mainstream arabs who in the absence of Western support will (and have already started) to turn to extremism to counter the ruthless massacres committed by Assad. And we haven't even mentioned the chemical weapons that Assad possesses which are very likely to fall in terrorists hands (as if Assad and his Iranian allies aren't terrorist enough for our tastes). Obama says that "using chemical weapons is a red line", Bashar and Nejad stick their big fat middle fingers to him and use it anyways, and Obama takes it with no problem. It is absolutely incredibly frustrating. Now Iran is rocking out with its **** out in the Mediterranean and we're just getting pushed around and taking a "hands off approach", thus putting ourselves and our interests in a vulnerable situation that could end up very badly for us and our allies. It's like we do everything wrong in this country: we start and sustain wars that we shouldn't, and we stay out of crises that we should very much be taking an active role in solving. I've seen and heard some incredibly tragic stories from my friends and family members in Syria. It is absolutely shameful that the U.S isn't even offering indirect support to the freedom fighters. They're not even asking us for boots on the ground, hell, not even aerial involvement, they're just asking for strategic weapon supply and logistic support that's all. And we're saying go F yourselves. They are getting increasingly impatient and I'm seeing an alarming trend of turning toward extremists who are pouncing on this opportunity to gain a stronghold in that area of the middle east. When will Mr. Obama and his administration grow a pair and do the right thing? Actually, the better question is will they ever? Only time can tell, but I'm losing hope with everyday that passes by. 4 days ago 200 engineering students were locked into Aleppo University by regime thugs and a Mig fighter jet fired rockets at the University, thus killing all 200 hundred students. I weep in sadness for a country so heartless that I've seen absolutely NOTHING reported on that tragic incident in any major news outlets, who unfortunately are too busy covering Manti Te'O's fake girlfriend ordeal and Lance Armstrong's PED usage.
I'm not sure if you were serious or joking, but except for the Arabian Gulf, where the long coastline and shallow, confined waters at least help the tiny Iranian Navy tactically a little bit, their "fleet" could be obliterated by one or two of our Arleigh Burke class Aegis destroyers. And we currently have 62 of them, with more being built. We wouldn't need a carrier battle group, of which we have 11. The Iranians are totally out-classed. They have a couple of Russian built Kilo class subs that are a threat, but I would be shocked if we didn't know exactly where they are and could quickly sink them if we wanted to. In practical terms, Iran doesn't have squat in the way of a navy, much less anything that could accurately be described as a "fleet." The biggest threat to the US Navy, our allies, and the world's merchant fleets in the Arabian Gulf are mines.
this is pretty accurate. Obama is doing this intentionally. He actually wants to minimize the US' role worldwide. He's a p***y -- weak and indecisive. not good for America.
Like they can't do both? You think I think they are a threat to us? Not really, but do I think they are a threat to Israel? Yes.
Are there confirmed reports that Syria is using chemical weapons? I have heard there were some reports that they had but nothing confirmed. Do you think the Iranian Navy expedition can really do much but for that matter are you suggesting that the US military should attack that force when it is in International waters? Attacking the Iranian Navy, especially in international waters, is clearly an act of war and as you noted we have started and sustained wars that we probably shouldn't have so do you think we can sustain a war with Iran? Consider that Iran's land area and population is much larger than Iraq and Afghanistan. I agree with you that the US could and should probably do more in Syria but consider what happened in Benghazi and that the big fear is that US aid to groups will come back to haunt them when some of those militias turn their weapons on the US and others. The problem with these type of situations is that it is always easy to get in but harder to get out.
Very doubtful the Iranian Navy is much of a threat to Israel. As Deckard notes they are dependent on Iran's coastline but since Israel doesn't border the Persian Gulf that isn't a factor. Even if they get to the Mediterranean off of Israel's coast Israel has a Navy too also shore batteries and a lot of planes.
Yes they will because it is an attack that probably won't do a lot of damage while ensuring a rapid one way ticket to the bottom of the ocean along with retaliatory air strikes on Iran itself. I know that a lot of people like to have this image of Iran as being a suicidal regime. If they were they wouldn't still be there. This naval tour Iran is taking is most likely for nothing but propaganda purposes.
I don't think they will attack this time around and am more persuaded to believe this to be a propaganda trip. But don't you think this is beginning to be a little like boiling the frog? Meaning they are making it easier and easier to set them selves up for an attack on Israel. If anything they may even be trying to incite Israel to attack them first, so they can not look like the instigators they are.
