Iran's naval warships enter Suez Canal first time in 3 decades

Two Iranian naval warships entered the Suez Canal this Tuesday, en route to the Mediterranean. Israel, which views Iran as a threat, has already called the move a 'provocation'. Iranian officials say the frigate and supply vessel are headed to Syria for a year-long training mission. It's the first time Iran's military ships have sailed those waters since the country's Islamic revolution of 1979. Egypt's Defence ministry says Iran's request stated the vessels would have no military equipment or nuclear materials onboard.

@03nj yeah the war for oil theory is probably the dumbest thing I have ever heard. First of all, U.S. companies got ZERO oil contracts in Iraq when the interim govt. auctioned contracts off. Secondly, western government have no problem with dictators. THey keep the oil market stable and keep the price of crude down by exploiting slave labor.

@durhamdf its not about the U.S. when everybody realizes that we will be doing better already

@03nj CONT: be silly and block the strait of hormuz, disrupting patrols of the persian gulf that the US has been conducting for decades and interfering with US interests in the gulf than OK, so be it. We have an expression here in the US. "you mess with the bull, you get the horns" Do you have any more stupid statements to make? because i feel i have adequately expressed my opinion and dispelled all of your ignorant bullshit.

@03nj CONT: thousands of its own people. Give me a fucking break dude! All of the super powers are guilty of something. Do i think the US should stop policing the world? ABSOLUTELY, if it were my choice, the US would go back to pre-WW2 isolationism and let the garbage men take out the garbage. But it's not my call, and as a service member, it is my duty that when my commander in chief tells me to kill the enemy, i do it without hesitation. I don't want to go to war with Iran but if they wanna -

@03nj First of all, Not a single Jap stepped foot on pearl harbor. It was a conniving deceitful attack following continued peace talks, in which the US ended the war with a push of a button... remember when i said that before? Secondly, russia isn't aggressive? Are you fucking kidding me? Ever heard of the cold war? When russia invaded afghanistan and murdered innocent villages with helicopters. Thirdly, China isnt animalistic? ever heard of Tiananmen Square? Where the Chinese military massacred

[03nj]

@codynieman

So Pearl Harbor was not your soil huh? :D And why do you even merit strength with how much someone is being aggressive and war mongering, China has not attacked anyone for a long time but they are quite strong they have biggest army in the world, Russia is not aggressive and they are also strong power, and so is Iran, you Americans think that attacking poor and weak countries is proving how strong you are, but instead proves how weak you are and that you have no honor

[codynieman]

@03nj You are truly delusional. Iran has studies US strategy in Iraq and Afghanistan to prepare their defensive against a US attack. Iraqi republican guard was surrendering before they even saw American troops and Afghanistan has no uniformed forces at all! If American homeland was ever put at risk Iran would be leveled with the push of a button. We haven’t had a foreign military step foot on our soil in 200 years, and that isn’t gonna change any time soon.

@capenati thats an insult to shitty navies sir

[03nj]

@codynieman

hahaha you believe what you see on TV and read in papers, hahaha and you are calling someone other stupid hahaha, you must be some dumb kid, oh no wait being stupid is typical for all Americans most stupid and ignorant people on the planet. ps: Iran will kick your ass and Russia and China will finish you off.

[codynieman]

@03nj It was on live television!! I remember watching it, do a little research you ignorant fuck! Use your computer to educate your retarded ass rather than spread your bullshit. Yugoslavia shot down only 4 american aircraft, and 47 aircraft owned by NATO. 4!! only 4! are you aware of how many aircraft are at the disposal of the american armed forces? THOUSANDS!! I dont understand why you are bragging about getting your shit kicked in by air superiority
