Irans Navy began its first deployment to the Atlantic Ocean on Tuesday, according to reports in local press.
...The Navy held a ceremony to celebrate the ships departure, which was attended by the commander of Irans Navy, Admiral Habibollah Sayyari, as well as his deputy, Rear Admiral Seyed Mahmoud Moussavi.
Iran has long discussed deploying naval assets to the Atlantic Ocean. As far back as 2011, Sayyari had threatened to deploy warships off the Atlantic Coast of the United States.
...As The Diplomat previously reported, Iranian media outlets noted in August 2013 reports that Irans Navy also plans to dispatch its 28th fleet to the Atlantic, Pacific or South Indian oceans in the near future. ...

Remember, Americas to the west, Africa and Europe to the east. Try not to run aground.
“It has also participated extensively in the United Nations anti-piracy operations in the Gulf of Aden”
Well, good for them.
Haven’t heard much about the anti-piracy operations.
Clowns on parade, in a boat no less.
High time for a mysterious accident at sea.
“He blowed up good!”
History will record our failure to deal with Iran early as the cause for the 10s of millions of deaths caused by the Islamic World War.
Jimmy Carter, a man who supposedly knew his Bible (and presumably about some world religions) let the Shah be deposed so an Islamic religious zealot could be put in charge.
And successive presidents did little to stop them.
Now, in a “blunder” of galactic proportions, Barak Obama is diddling along and letting Iran get what they want. Nuclear Weapons.
The utter stupidity of the US policy toward Iran will be fatal.
Wonder how close to DC they will get? HHmmmmm
Did obastard call in Reggie to celebrate?
How do you get a nuke into Washington DC on commercial transportation?
You don’t. You get it there on an Iranian flagged warship and helicopter it in.
Caught your quote marks on “blunder.”
The thing I don’t get is that the Saudis bought obastard’s presidency. But now the Iranians are becoming powerful. Must be missing something, this does not line up. The Saudis and the Iranians hate each other (Sunni vs Shia).
Unless obastard snowed the Saudis? Just don’t know.
Great! Now they can sink in deep water.

Without going into all the obvious steps this is the beginning of the Iranians developing a sort of guerrilla ‘special weapons’ delivery organization. I suspect they are investigating EMP operations as a better giant killer than some small nuclear devices.

Obama would never lie to anyone, would he?
Looking over their edges won’t help them find those Virginia class lurkers though.
EXACTLY....wonder how the elites feel now?
EXACTLY 2.
Nice boat you’ve got there.
Wouldn’t want anything bad to happen to it...
