TEHRAN, Iran -- The leader of Iran's Revolutionary Guard warned on Thursday that he has ordered his forces to potentially target the U.S. Navy after President Donald Trump's tweet the previous day threatening to sink Iranian vessels.

Iran also summoned the Swiss ambassador, who looks out for America's interests in the country, to complain about Trump's threat coming amid months of escalating tensions between the two countries.

While the coronavirus pandemic temporarily paused those tensions, Iran has since begun pushing back against the Trump administration's maximum pressure policy both militarily and diplomatically. The Guard on Wednesday launched Iran's first military satellite, unveiling a previously secret space program.

Okay, Guard Gen. Hossein Salami, get on one of your converted fishing boats and lead the charge.

Our Navy will be glad to slice you up and serve your a$$ to the crabs in that water, al fresco!

Indeed. How do they say “Davy Jones’ Locker” in Farsi?

Sheba and Dedan drop oil prices, Persia and Magog hurting.

Could get interesting.

Isn’t there a prophecy about Elam getting attacked before Gog/Magog Ezekiel 38 & 39?

I haven’t made that connection, but it’s hard to time some of it.

Even Ezekiel 38 is difficult to pinpoint but definitely for the Latter Years and the Latter Days (KJV).

Personally, I believe it happens before Armageddon.

Time will tell, I suppose.

Jeremiah 49:34-39

I just looked it up. Some Prophecy scholars believe it’s an attack by God or Israel upon eastern Iran that nips their nuke capabilities in the bud since it doesn’t read that the Ezekiel 38/39 force uses WMDs.

I’m not saying that is what it states, but it’s one of several theories out there.

I hope they bring it. Our navy personnel will get in some target practice. See some of that here:

Iran launched a satellite into space with a large missile. Since they haven’t worked out how to re-enter the atmosphere (in a controlled state), the missile remains (for the moment) also up in orbit.

What happens when it comes down? Where will it come down ?
