Anyone have the coordinates to the White House that can be relayed to the “war” ship?

“By instigating a confrontation that will assuredly result in the annihilation of their country “

Are you seriously suggesting that Obama annihilate Iran under any circumstances?

“Didn’t the Mayflower make it in less time than that? “

Yes, if you discount all the false starts and accept that September 6th was the actual day of departure and that first land sighting was on November 9 (or 19) and then discount all the local sailing about until they picked a spot where they wanted to finally land.

The Iranian navy is awesome. Who gets salvage rights to their sunken fleet?

Two separate things. They “captured” our Drone and they released a whole bunch of Photo Shops of what appeared to be a Stealth Fighter.

I assume our Drone ended up in another Country...

Are you so sure that either a) Obama would be in charge, or b) that Obama, if in charge, would not hesitate to use such a situation to install himself as El Presidente’ for life?

Many things are possible, and most are no less ludicrous than the postulations being put forth in this thread concerning the intentions of the Iranians.
