Just imagine if some podunk country sent ships to mess with a U.S. Navy destroyer during the days of President Ronald W. Reagan!

Seriously, the United States is joke.

The very first thing that should have come to mind of the Iranian navy is to stay as far from an American naval destroyer as possible.

But no, not these days. These days they can bully the US, showing off to the world what pansies we are, and not a damned thing happens.

Its disgusting.

And the old jokes...What do you get when you cross an American destroyer with an Iranian gunboat?

An American destroyer.

Their entire navy comprises what, 150 boats, ships and subs?

My guess is that with very little planning, every sub, every frigate and above could and should be scuttled within a few hours. The balance could be scuttled over the next few days.

Ah yes - Gulf of Tonkin, USS Maddox, USS Turner Joy. Let's be careful what we wish for.

If Reagan was still prez... he would have warned Iran once... and then there would be NO MORE Iranian navy.

Then again, if Reagan was still prez... there would be NO ISSUES with Iran.
