Top Iranian Army commander Major General Ataollah Salehi said Sunday that the recent war rhetoric against the country has prompted Iran's military brass to task analysts with developing quick-reaction contingency plans.
The general said the "heavy weight" of enemy warships provides the Iranian side with an ideal opportunity for launching successful counter-attacks.
This is while earlier in June, The New York Sun reported that America's intelligence analysts were poring over scenarios for an Iranian attack on the US 5th Fleet, located in Bahrain.

Yup, we were due for another chapter of "Iran tries to talk up the price of oil."
The Iranians are going to love this.
For them, having Obambi in the Whitehouse is going to be more fun than a barrel of Jimmy Carters.
They loved those days when the Ayatollah would pound his fist and shout, and Jimmy Carter would immediately wet himself and fall to the floor whimpering like a smacked little puppy dog. The Iranians are going to love this guy.
I am going to love watching the US withdraw troops from Iraq via Iran.
Is that like counting coup?
Do these idiots have a plan to deal with Ohio class subs?Hit one of our carriers and the gloves will clearly be off...
They can stop threatening us now....their boy Obama will be in the White House ready to concede all sort of things to help advance the Iranian nuclear program.
With their man soon to be in the White House, the Iranians are going to have free rein over whatever grounds they choose to play on. Elections sure have consequences!
“Do these idiots have a plan to deal with Ohio class subs?Hit one of our carriers and the gloves will clearly be off...”
Not with obambi in the White House. Time to pound our swords into ploughshares! /sarc
“Do these idiots have a plan to deal with Ohio class subs?Hit one of our carriers and the gloves will clearly be off...”
not with Obama in charge.
“Hit one of our carriers and the gloves will clearly be off...”
I served on a carrier and trust me, not a chance.
They can try... and die tired.
Not responding to a major attack against our forces would be the fast track to a coup lead by the Joint Chiefs.Just my opinion.
Not to worry General Salehi, after the junior Mahdi begins to ‘Rule from Day One’, you’ll discover that the Great Satan is actually on the same side as you are, and we’ll probably end up attacking the Zionist entity as a team.
Something tells me that our sailors at sea (and in the air) could take care of business if they were ever to come under attack by 9th Century knuckledraggers like the Iranians.Geeze...in *8* years the best Iran could do with Saddam was fight him to a stalemate.We crushed him in a matter of hours....*twice*.
Hitting a carrier would be far less likely than hitting one of the tin cans. I wonder if the public reaction would be the same if one of them got hit.
This guy is channeling Baghdad Bob.
For people who never steamed at condition 3 or 4 in the Arabian Sea, many tings are possible
I dont feel too confident about those mach 6 missiles from India, though, those scramjet types, not too much can catch them in time
And we are perfectly capable of digging a canal through Iran that bypasses the Straights of Hormuz without putting a single boot on the ground.
