File under: Govt of Iran
#1 Iran's seeming strategeery to isolate the US CVNS + Gator Boyz, etal. to the Sea of Oman + beyond shows they do care about the deadly after-effects of having to detonate Nukes-WMDS near or on their own soil in order to defeat a foreign invasion, occupation force.
Fighting major conventional sea war inside the Persian Gulf agz the USN is undoubtedly one of Iran's last L-A-S-T options/resort to save its budding NucProg - its only real or best weapon at this time to counter the US CVNS + Gator Boyz, etal. is the various "Arab/Muslim/Islamic Spring" + the Nuclear Ummah + US-NATO-vs-Russia-China.

#6 Sub drones cut cables (snip snip) and tow the buggers into the nearest Iranian harbor, then release them. Then, back for more.

#7 If they had the ability and capability, they would carry out the minesweeping by manned systems
Does that mean the Iranians have trained their 12-year old 'martyrs' to hold their breath for hours?

#8 Horsefeathers. The Iranians have old tech at best. Trained monkeys that can swim. We have trained dolphins.

Rantburg was assembled from recycled algorithms in the United States of America. No
trees were destroyed in the production of this weblog. We did hurt some, though. Sorry.
