Iranian Navy Rigid About Deployment At US Maritime Borders
FNA ^ | October 29, 2011

Posted on 10/29/2011 10:26:18 AM PDT by Fennie

TEHRAN (FNA) - Iranian Navy Commander Rear Admiral Habibollah Sayyari on Saturday reiterated Tehran's plan to deploy naval vessels near the maritime borders of the United States, and said Americans are not entitled to opposition as all nations have the right of voyage in international waters.

Speaking to FNA here in Tehran on Saturday, Admiral Sayyari said Iran is serious about deployment near the United States maritime borders and this rigidness has worried the US officials.

"Americans are worried about themselves. The Iranian army is present in free waters and will continue its presence," he said.

He said international rules and regulations entitle all countries to the right to freely sail and be present in the high seas, and added, "I ask if the United States maritime borders are not in free waters? If they are, then why should we not go there?"

Is it possible that our Russian friends have been selling the Persians nuclear sub tech?

It is some 11,000+ sea miles from Persian ports to the American 200 mile limit, so how are these subs supposed to be maintained on station?

My real question: Is this a for- real threat or a fig-newton of the Shiite imagination?

Fact of Muslim life - Iranians included - Installment # 2,871b:
Muslims are invariably and intensely inbred. IOW, when a couple marries, both partners are often 1st or 2d cousins. The father and mother of the bride are also cousins, and further related to the father and mother of the groom, who are also related to each other. In those cases where the young fellow can afford more than one wife at a time, the bride(s) will actually be sisters! Besides the inevitably large number of physical birth defects, one must in all scientific candor also admit that the likelihood of a significant number of mental defects is also inevitable.

Case in point: my 45-man Saudi crew: Many deaf. Many with congenital kidney problems, many cross-eyed or wall-eyed, many extreme ectomorphs (6'3", 135lbs with huge floppy ears), many deaf, many with odd tics, and many of'em nuttier than Aunt Laura's fruitcakes. (Many also witty as hell and a lot of fun!)

There is a reason why every strip mall in Riyadh has a Dialysis Unit, an Optometry Shop, and a Hearing Aid Shop! And we thought West Virginia was bad? How the hell can a Westerner deal with these people?

Multiple launches from nuclear tipped missiles from these vessels could destroy all major US cities with little more than a few minutes warning.

All major US cities are 200 miles off of the coast?

Did you have your coffee this morning?

They are within all within reach of the 1800 mile range of the current crop of Iranian missiles. That range is sure to increase in the short term, if it hasn’t already.

The rhetoric coming out of Tehran would certainly support us carrying out a preemptive strike against their ships.

Have you finished high school?

Why didn’t you say that? If you want to make a point make it. You sure as hell didn’t this time is why I questioned you.

You are a touchy fellow too so I guess your statements being questioned is a regular thing.

Well, yes, but even as a dumb software engineer, I know that the Iranian missiles have a reach of more than 1800 miles.

And your excuse is ...

I may be dumb, but you are the lazy one if you don’t do enough reading to know anything about Iranian missile capability.

LOL!

Yes, I should know the complete missile capabilities of every county off the top of my head in case a bonehead makes an incomplete post so I can fill in the blanks.

Gotcha!

The capabilities of Iran’s missiles are not obscure, arcane details that few people know about.

> a bonehead

Name calling, besides being a violation of forum rules, is the refuge of those who have little more of intellectual value to offer.

It’s what leftists do.

> an incomplete post

Yes, your posts, because you consider yourself such a brilliant and perfect person, should be filled with checkable facts and replete with detailed references.

Instead, your posts appear to be telling us more about you than they do about anything else.

Add crybaby to your list of problems.

A man would have just admitted his post was deficit of facts.

I have to get ready for the game.

You feel free to stew in your juices.

I look forward to your next FReepwhine.

Your posts speak volumes about you.

You’re the only person that complained about not having someone explain to you that ballistic missiles might have a range greater than 200 miles.

Pathetic.

LOL!

I am waiting for your next FReepwhine ‘lil fella.

Note, most skipped your post because they realized that you are not bright. I engaged you and have kept you dancing for days.

Guys, this is the tidbit I told you about Saturday.

You’re the whiner.

We’re supposed to hold your hand, and we’re not supposed to hold you accountable for your toddler tantrum.

Just like a liberal, you’re above the rules.
