"It's a beautiful morning no mushroom clouds, slight chance of solar flares, and no Iranian para troopers falling out of the sky."


You wont see any Iranian paratroops ever in the US they dont not have the capability to realistically reach the US even if they did it would have to pass through several air spaces that dislike the presence of Iranian military aircraft greatly.

I am surprised that they do not make a "Green Dawn" for the Yubbas out there where Iran and Hezbollah invades the US and shoots wealthy businessmen (killing a left-commie teacher
would be a positive) and tramples copies of the bible and "Dukes of Hazard".Yubba as played by Bruce Willis will become leader of the Hickory Smoked Bacons and will ambush Iranian Republican Guard units they will always take 3 alive and force them to eat bacon until they burst.

Iran is most certainly a threat but not on that level to the US.

What, the US did not even shoot back ?
Tell your propaganda ministry to do their stuff right.







edit:
Wait no ! (lol):

From the same source as the OP:
http://www.arabtimesonline.com/NewsD...6/Default.aspx

"US denies sea clash - ***8216;Iranians rescued***8217;

KUWAIT CITY, March 6: The US Navy has denied reports that its forces fired on a boat with six Iranians onboard near Kuwaiti territorial waters on March 5, killing four, wounding one and leaving one mariner unaccounted.

The article, dated March 6 in the Arab Times, that reported the incident from an unnamed source in Al-Shahed newspaper, is unequivocally false and unfounded, according to Lt Rebecca Rebarich, Media Officer for COMUSNAVCENT, US Fifth Fleet based in Bahrain."

A dhow sank in a storm, and some of the seamen were rescued by the US. I hope Israel did not fire the rockets yet ?

A boat sank. A sailor was rescued. Several bodies recovered. No shots fired as far as the US is concerned. Iran continues railing on about the Great Satan...

Wouldn't they be surprised to find out that the U.S. actually works for a series of Lesser Satans, all grouped under the Hell's Half Acre marketing firm. (The actual Great Satan chairs the parent company and, along with a healthy salary, also receives pension from a UK law enforcement agency (i.e. jimbuna )).

So, the national title should read: The United States of America (A liesure-time subsidary of Great Satan, LLP)?

"Honest Cap'n - that dhow just sank. I have no idea why. Well, yessir, those are bullet holes in the bodies of those sailors, and yes sir, the one that is injured appears to be shot as well. But it wasn't us, Cap'n!"

"Good, we don't want an international incident! Now, were we able to down that seagull for my dinner?"

"No sir, we fired every available weapon except missiles, and we missed with every one sir."

"Darn, oh well, I will be in my stateroom. Carry on!"
