On Nov 8 after Fred has won the whitehouse, dubya should order the carrier strike groups to take out Iran’s nuke facilities.

The question is will USA wait to let Iran build a bomb. Or will we deliver one on them, first??

Pizza any one??? Will it be DeGoiania or delivery??? That is the question. Time will tell.

Don’t we have the same rule for aircraft carrier threads as we have for Ann Coulter threads? There must be pictures!!

Are all these Carriers *IN* the Gulf?

Why does this seem like a crazy idea to me?

As i understand it, if the Strait of H has an incident, the Gulf could be rendered unreachable, and anything in there, trapped.

Is this true?

The Straits are narrow, but not that narrow. We could fight our way through. We’ve had several battle groups in the Gulf before. It’s pretty well organized.

Your source has bad gouge, not to mention his photos are outdated.
