TEHRAN (BHN) - Iran's state-run Islamic Republic News Agency announced Tuesday that Iran is sending navy ships to shadow U.S. coasts.
"Commander of the Navy of the Army of the Islamic Republic, Admiral Ihabirag Onmihed said that the same way that the world arrogant power is present near our marine borders, we, with the help of our skillful sailors and a really good compass shall also establish a powerful presence near the marine borders of the United States," the story said. The reference to the "world arrogant power" was presumably intended to refer to the United States.
A Department of Defense spokesman dismissed any military threat the Iranian ships might pose, but expressed concern over possible environmental damage from large quantities of rust washing up on popular tourist beaches.
My comments: A good BB gun and a scope could sink the whole fleet - I hope they stay well off shore!
