You are right Markus, its for the Iranian people. But it makes me wonder just how dumb do the Iranian Generals and Admirals think the Iranian people are?

That's a god question and from those Iranian I know living in Denmark and Sweden-they are not dumb.

I'm convinced that the ordinary Iranian know that this video is nothing more than -propaganda-rubbish-they can't say it openly.

Then there are of course those who get a kick of "We the Iranian are the strongest"

Well they do this to those who disagree http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Death...da_Agha-Soltan.... who can say how many believe it probably about the same ratio as anywhere else.

@Marcus your last line seems those types are everywhere. In the US you'll see some my favorite of their sologans is "these colors don't run" I feel like handing them a history book. You know the blind followers which by at least my view of what American citizenship the first duty is to question anything the government dose or says. I'd say that is the duty of any citizen of any nation. In the US the oath of enlistment as well as for officers is to defend the constitution and the people not a certain leader. We kneel to no kings.

I am shocked. Shocked, I say to learn the Iran is practicing war maneuvers. It is a damn good thing that an upstanding peace loving country like the good ole USA would never ever do such a thing.

If the Iranians had really wanted to sink a US carrier, they should have made a pact with either the ancient Mayans, or Roland Emmerich.

Just pure luck they chose a time when the radar and ecm systems were turned off for maintenance and the CIWS systems were being overhauled, alongside the fact all the pilots were having a day off....pure luck is all it was.

It was a million-to-one chance I tells ya! With luck like that, they should play the lottery.
