    Iran Cleric Warns U.S. Persian Gulf Fleet: ‘One Missile Will Destroy You’

    A U.S. Navy force gathering in the Persian Gulf could be entirely destroyed with just one missile, an Iranian cleric warned late Friday.

    “Their billion [-dollar] fleet can be destroyed with one missile,” Ayatollah Yousef Tabatabai Nejad was quoted as saying by the ISNA news agency after Friday prayers in Isfahan, according to Reuters.

    “If they attempt any move, they will… [face] dozens of missiles because at that time [government] officials won’t be in charge to act cautiously, but instead things will be in the hands of our beloved leader [Ayatollah Ali Khamenei]” added Nejad, who is the supreme leader’s representative in Isfahan.

    The threat comes after the White House announcement last Sunday it would send the USS Abraham Lincoln aircraft carrier strike group and B-52 bombers into the Persian Gulf to counter Tehran. The Lincoln on Thursday passed through the Suez Canal on its way to its new assignment, as Breitbart News reported.

    “The deployment of the USS Abraham Lincoln Carrier Strike Group and a bomber task force are considered a prudent step in response to indications of heightened Iranian readiness to conduct offensive operations against US forces and our interests,” acting Pentagon spokesman Charles Summers said in a statement.

    “We emphasize the White House statement that we do not seek war with the Iranian regime, but we will defend U.S. personnel, our allies and our interests in the region.”

    I wish the President would quit telegraphing his moves. "BTW, we moved a new carrier task force in on your ass last night," sounds WAY better and is much safer tactically.

    I NEVER liked being penned in the Arabia Gulf. And I don't care how big it is or how big anyone else thinks it is, the one way in and out is NOT big. I am all too aware it is standard procedure so this is just my opinion (having to go through the Strait of Hormuz is NOT opinion).

    As far all that Ayatollah BS goes, whatever. Remember, Iran only fought Saddam to a draw and they only managed that by throwing more bodies at Iraq than Iraq could kill. That is Iran's only real asset, even against us. Manpower and space. We couldn't occupy the place. So I figure we should blow it up

    It's a load of rubbish.

    What they should do is sneak an Iranian on board (maybe a sleeper agent ?) ... and get him to sneeze a few times.

    That'll do it.
    It's That Bloody Foreigner Again !!!
