A senior Iranian naval commander says his country has sent several warships to the Atlantic Ocean, close to U.S. maritime borders for the first time.

The commander of Iran's Northern Navy Fleet, Admiral Afshin Rezayee Haddad, is quoted by the official IRNA news agency as saying Saturday that the vessels have already begun the journey to the Atlantic Ocean via waters near South Africa.

"Iran's military fleet is approaching the United States' maritime borders, and this move has a message," Haddad reportedly said, according to Fars, a semi-official Iranian news agency.

Right, and that message will be, "Glub glub blugg blub blub *"

I'm not sure they know what the term 'threaten' means ...

[Gusington]

I'm impressed that the Iranians claim to have a destroyer and a helicopter carrier.

How will the world react to the powerful fleet of Falsehood and Fiction? Let us all hope that they don't send Guffaw and Boondoggle out to join them! We aren't ready for that!

Somewhere deep in the bowels of the Capital.....Congressmen are working on how to turn this into a credible threat worthy of increased military spending....in their district, of course.

Maybe the Cuban and Venezuelan navies, along with ragged squadrons of Somalian pirates, could be encouraged to join in the "invasion"? Where the hell are the Wolverines when you need them?

Or where's Chuck Norris?!? He has experience with fighting horrid overacting!

"....Iranian officials said last month that the fleet consisted of the destroyer Sabalan and the logistic helicopter carrier Khark...."

Don't tell me the U.S. doesn't have the naval strength in the Atlantic to oppose that "fleet"!

You could go psy-ops and just leave a naked star out there in a rubber ring and one of those fairground sugar dummies round his neck

It is nice having no tan lines.

Lets just hope that the current US President and his Secretary of State don't screw things up this badly;
