#1 I know what a nautical mile is. Has anyone heard of a nautical kilometer?

#2 Must be an Iranian thing.

The International Nautical Mile is 1,852 meters.
We define it as 6080 feet, but usually it's rounded off/up.

#3 Soon to hear of them docking in Cuba, then the Bermuda triangle will swallow them whole.

#4 I was thinking Venezuela myself. Probably Brazil as well.

#5 What's their route? Suez or Cape of Good Hope? Brazil would be quiet a voyage either way. I see a learning process about to begin.

The Kharg is an ex-RN replenishment oiler and looks to be capable enough if it is in good form. That said it was built in 1965 and deh.... um uses a steam turbine plant. (cough)

#6 I wish them luck, they look to be somewhat tired, but perhaps they have have some sort of sea life extension. I dunno. I thought the Sabalan was sunk in the Tanker War. Maybe this is a new construction.

#7 Not necessarily un-related ...

* TOPIX > [SCMP] US MUST BE PREPARED TO SEE CHINA AS AN EQUAL POWER.

Rising Iran = Rising China = Rising ????? = Bammerika's new BFF + OWG Globalist Co-Superpower.

IRAN, RADICAL ISLAM = IFF WILY DASTARDLY DESPICABLE ZIONISM-N-CRUSADER LOVING ISRAEL CAN HAVE NUCLEAR WEAPONS, ETC. WHY NOT IRAN + WORLD ISLAMIC COUNTRIES, ....@ETAL???

Lest we fergit, SEVEN [only?] OWG-NWO GLOBAL/GLOBALIST CO-SUPERPOWERS FOR OWG-NWO SEVEN [only?] GLOBAL FEDERAL UNIONS ON SEVEN KNOWN CONTINENTS.

Lest We Fergit II, GLOBALISM + "MULTIPOLAR/
POLYCENTRIC WORLD" = Historical or traditional "Great/Major Powers", espec the current "Sole" Superpower USA, unilaterally give up Power-n-Influence to Wannabes so that the latter can rise to new status.

E.G. IIRC TOPIX > ITS NOT THE US [US-West] IN DECLINE, BUT THE RISE OF THE REST.

Rise of the Non-Blonde, Non-"Whitey/Nordic-European, Non-WASPIES, Non-JudeoChristian,...etal.

DO THE GLOBIES MEAN IT, OR ARE THEY JUST GIVING A PCORRECT-DENIABLE NEW COVER TO MAINTAINING TRADITIONAL US, WESTERN + JUDOECHRISTIAN WORLD DOMINANCE???

DOTH NOT 9-11 + GWOT = WAR FOR OWG-NWO = WAR FOR TYHE ANTI-STATUS QUO, AKA WAR TO CHANGE/AMEND THE STATUS QUO ... ... ... FOR THE GOOD OF ALL, NOT JUST THE US-WEST + JUDEOCHRISTIANS???

OR DID THE GLOBALISTS "MISUNDERSTAND" THEIR OWN "-ISM" = CONCEPTS OR TENETS???

[VULCAN-ROMULAN STARFLEET KILLER-BABE KIM CATTRALL TO ADMIRAL KIRK = "DID I MISQUOTE YOU, DID I MISUNDERSTAND YOU ..." here].
