The GDP of Iran is about the same as the GDP of Alabama. The population of Iran is 81.5 million, Alabama's population is 4.8 million.

The noise they make far exceeds their capabilities.

Persia chose the peacock as a symbol for a reason.

They have been threatening deployments to the Caribbean for years and they have yet to get past the Horn of Africa.

Yep - I bet they’d have trouble recovering if one of their ships had an “accident”....

They have been threatening deployments to the Caribbean for years and they have yet to get past the Horn of Africa.

They'd probably have to fight a brutal battle with the evenly matched pirates in rubber dinghies to get further south. :)

Heading to Gulf of Mexico ...??

Maybe Trump can give them a tour of the Bottom of the Gulf of Mexico.....

Does any Islamic country have a decent GDP?

Good, let Venezuela suck the remaining life out of Iran.

They would have to have more crew than needed to cover for the 5 times per day prayers and all of the foot washing prior to prayers or stop operations during those prayer times. Also they should be easy to detect due to the ships loud speakers blaring out the call to prayers during those times.

[Uversabound]

Yep and the ole POS is still giving to America.

Should be hung for TREASON!!

Just for this with Iran.

[donozark]

Fish food. Think Truk Lagoon.

Is it time for this fake news story again already?

Oy vey...

[moovova]

Why do I get the feeling those Iranian ships should give wide berth to those Louisiana boys...

[TheRightGuy]

did they ever return?
no they never returned,
and their fate is yet unlearned,
... ... ...

when did the monroe doctrine die?

President Barack Obama's Secretary of State John Kerry told the Organization of American States in November 2013 that 'era of the Monroe Doctrine is over.' Several commentators have noted that Kerry's call for a mutual partnership with the other countries in the Americas is more in keeping with Monroe's intentions than the policies enacted after his death.

Iranian Navy coming to the Gulf of Mexico? Not if a whale farts in this “armada’s” general vicinity....
