| Iran military to do war games in February | |
| 2007-11-26 | |
Iran's Army Naval Force will carry out a war game in Hormuz Strait and Gulf of Oman in southern Iran, in February, it was reported here Saturday.
The war game aim to exercise technical tactics, test the Navy's equipment and promote power of the naval forces in the field of different surface-to-surface and air-to-sea operations. The Navy personnel will also launch different missiles during the military exercise, added the rear admiral. | |

| #4 A move designed explicitly to allow the Russian intelligence gathering machine to track the 'US response' and coordinate those logistics with the Iranians through their mutual back door. That's if there is a 'US response'. |

| #1 Looks like the Iranians are getting jittery on that rumored spring US 'offense window' opportunity. A move designed explicitly to allow the Russian intelligence gathering machine to track the 'US response' and coordinate those logistics with the Iranians through their mutual back door. The war games will also tend to 'throw water' on the initiative of a presumed preemption on the US's part in affect, prodding the United States to 'put up or shut up' in world public opinion. As long as the Iranians don't lay sea mines while there in the Strait; and don't occupy the center (ie; a symbolic blockaid), it may go off without a shot being fired! |
