CNN reports iranian navy made threatening moves

[Thermactor]

they did make sure to draw up media and popular hysteria first before admitting that the whole thing was a farce

How will the market react if something happens?

Gold at least seems to be on another leg up. How about crude oil and equities. Any ideas.

Quote from mschey:

There are several strategies available to defend against these missles. From CAP intercepts, High Value Unit protection, the Aegis system, and Sea Whiz, otherwise known as, Phalanx(See that thing shoot was really cool!)

Sea Whiz is actually

CWIS

Close In Weapons System......sick, nasty shit. In a good way

75 rounds a second, sounds like cloth ripping it\'s so fast...great against missiles of all types.

Train it on one of those Iranian speed boats and there won't be much left over to sink to the bottom!

"Doubts intensified last night over the nature of an alleged aggressive confrontation by Iranian patrol boats and American warships in the Persian Gulf on Sunday, after Pentagon officials admitted that they could not confirm that a threat to blow up the US ships had been made directly by the Iranian crews involved in the incident.

Several news sources reported that senior navy officials had conceded that the voice threatening to blow up the US warships in a matter of minutes could have come from another ship in the region, or even from shore."

Quote from RhinoGG:

Please tell me again, why does the U.S. military have ships in the Straits of Hormuz?

Because rag heads manipulate the price of oil we need to function as a nation. If it weren't for the oil weapon we wouldn't have carriers and other heavy equipment pointed at stupid archaic people that want to take down the modern world. Comprende? Now no understand...

Quote from TheDudeofLife:

Iran doesn't have any nukes.

Doesn't matter it's a rag head oil country. Kind of like what Canada and Mexico are trying to become and what South America and the rest of Opec members are. Russia is so twisted in it's policies but they don't want to percieve themselfs as rag head terrorist because they have good trade with Asian countries. Any country using oil as a weapon is a serious piece of shit. Russia does it to so they are no different than the rag heads exept they like Canada act all fakey so they think their in a different class. Their all low life shit.

Comprende? Now no understand.....(roll eyes) estúpido idiota!
