Iran will take action if a U.S. aircraft carrier which left the area because of Iranian naval exercises returns to the Gulf, the state news agency quoted army chief Ataollah Salehi as saying on Tuesday.

The sabers rattle louder and the drum beat of war becomes more intense as we all wonder ... will they or will they not stay out?

So Iran drew a line in the sand (oops, water)? Does Iran really think they can attack an aircraft carrier?

I just hope the USA picks their next move wisely, not rush to react swiftly and foolishly. Still we must go back into the Persian Gulf to keep shipping lanes open, Iran doesn't own the Persian Gulf. (It's like darn if you do and darn if you don't)

Right, O.Z., they would be stupid to try attacking an aircraft carrier but then.....the Iranians are led by insane zealots who care nothing for the lives and well being of their people. Something is going to happen in that region and soon. Washington is not backing away from military confrontation with Iran nor is Israel.

The US has replied by stating that the US Navy will go where it wants to, when it wants to. So far, just finger poking ...

Depends on what the Commander in Chief orders they can or cannot do.

I am thinking of when the Seals were unable to rescue the kidnapped captain from the pirates due to the orders from the Commander in Chief not to.

Iran was the only uprising that did not receive US intervention or interference or whatever.

So it's hard to say what the game plan is.

Sorta reminds me of an old Jim Croce song.

They say you don't tug on Superman's cape.

You don't spit into the wind.

You don't pull the mask off the ol' Lone Ranger

and you don't mess around with an Aircraft Carrier. :24:
