Iran says it has 100 vessels for each US warship
 The former naval chief for Iran's Revolutionary Guard said the country has set aside 100 military vessels to confront each warship from the U.S. or any other foreign power that might pose a threat, an Iranian newspaper reported Saturday.Off the port bow. What is that, ensign? Looks to be...an Iranian in a rowboat. With a blunderbuss. Take him out. Aye, aye, sir. Saffari said more than 100 foreign warships were currently in the Persian Gulf and the Sea of Oman, adding that their sailors were "morsels" for Iran's military to target, the newspaper reported. By putting the number of foreign warships at 100, the general appeared to suggest Iran has 10,000 military vessels at the ready. Iran is known to have many speed boats used by the Guard, but there is no public information about how many larger military vessels it has. Posted by: tu3031 2010-07-24 |
