TEHRAN, Iran (AP) - A former naval chief in Iran's Revolutionary Guard says his country has set aside 100 military vessels to confront each U.S. warship that poses a threat.

Gen. Morteza Saffari is quoted by the conservative weekly Panjereh Saturday as saying that troops aboard U.S. warships are "morsels" for Iran to target in the event of any American threat against Iran.

That’s fine; US warships have quite enough bombs and missiles and torpedoes to address them all.

“Iran Says It Has 100 Vessels For Each US Warship...”

Yes; they’re row boats with a single suicide bomber precariously perched in each, but never mind.

"Don't forget to count that submarine with the screen door."

[Liberty1970]

Are they counting the life rafts and inflatable vests?

[nhoward14]

In other words, they gathered up all the toy boats they could find in the country. Each one will be armed with a single firecracker.

[cripplecreek]

Good deal, the more target practice we get, the better.

[hal ogen]

Each of their “vessels” should be redefined as a “casket” should they attack.

[Sooth2222]

100? Excellent!

I was wondering whatever happened to ‘Baghdad Bob’.

At least we did before the era of 0-bummer, plus the will to use them.

Remember when Iraq was at war with Iran? Iran had the third largest and most powerful military in the world. Iraq was rated third and kicked their butts. Iran is stuck with WWII equipment and just has the numbers. They couldn’t stop a war on them if they wanted to. The people of Iran need to stand up against this dictatorship. It’s tough but the longer they wait, the worse it will get.

Just like our country.

Baghdad Bob went into retirement. Iran wouldn’t want him anyhow because he’s the wrong sect.

[null and void]

They’ve improved the technology?

The Cole’s attackers were two to a boat...

When my son served in the Navy on a nuclear submarine about 5 years ago, we had 18 in our fleet.

They each have 24 missile silo's, 8-13 city buster nuclear tipped missles in each silo, coolest part, no one knows where they are in the world seas and they can launch underwater any where in the world to anywhere in the world.

Got boats for them Iran?

[realcleanguy]

Short man syndrome. These people are the most delusional leaders of any nation ever. They lived in a isolated society, have little contact with the rest of the world, and they believe their own propaganda

[Gay State Conservative]

Cool....and we have 750 megatons for each of your vessels.As well as weapons so advanced and so lethal as to make your 9th Century pig fornicating minds spin with disbelief.

We'll be *happy* to introduce a million of you knuckledraggers to your "virgins" if you'll only give us an excuse.

Plastic surgery and a new job...

Think witless protection...
