Massive, 25-Nation War Drill in Persian Gulf Starts Today as Israel Preps to Turn Iran into Glass Parking Lot

In preparation for any pre-emptive or retaliatory action by Iran, warships from more than 25 countries, including the United States, Britain, France, Saudi Arabia and the UAE, will today begin an annual 12-day exercise.

The war games are the largest ever undertaken in the region.

They will practise tactics in how to breach an Iranian blockade of the strait and the force will also undertake counter-mining drills.

The multi-national naval force in the Gulf includes three US Nimitz class carrier groups, each of which has more aircraft than the entire complement of the Iranian air force.

The carriers are supported by at least 12 battleships, including ballistic missile cruisers, frigates, destroyers and assault ships carrying thousand of US Marines and special forces.

The British component consists of four British minesweepers and the Royal Fleet Auxiliary Cardigan Bay, a logistics vessel. HMS Diamond, a brand-new £1billion Type 45 destroyer, one of the most powerful ships in the British fleet, will also be operating in the region.

In addition, commanders will also simulate destroying Iranian combat jets, ships and coastal missile batteries.

In the event of war, the main threat to the multi-national force will come from the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps navy, which is expected to adopt an “access-denial” strategy in the wake of an attack, by directly targeting US warships, attacking merchant shipping and mining vital maritime chokepoints in the Persian Gulf.

A strike on Iran, is national suicide, sorry to say.

Thanks Doorbert,

I've learned to look for the one/s that initiate the thread for the content, Your's my friend has never let me down.

Have a good day.

TEHRAN — The head of Iran's powerful Revolutionary Guards on Sunday warned of retaliation against the Gulf's strategic Strait of Hormuz, US bases in the Middle East and Israel if his country was to be attacked.

General Mohammad Ali Jafari, speaking in a very rare news conference in Tehran, also said that he believed Iran would abandon the nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty should it be targeted for military action.

It is estimated that after the exercise ends Sept. 27, the components of the exercise will not disperse but remain in place ready for any repercussions from a potential Israeli attack on Iran’s nuclear sites.

Cheers for the update.

The United States and more than two dozen allies are gearing up for the largest naval exercise ever in the Middle East focused on countering the threat of anti-ship mines. A wary Iran says it will be watching closely.


France, Japan, Jordan and New Zealand are among the more than 30 countries expected to take part in the exercise, which begins Sunday and lasts through Sept. 27. Some, such as Britain, will be contributing ships and other hardware. Others are sending personnel and observers.

The drills will likely be perceived around the world as a challenge to Tehran, which has thousands of anti-ship mines it could deploy to disrupt shipping and drive up oil prices in response to any airstrike on its uranium enrichment facilities.

You should FUCK OFF,
bring SOURCES or SHUT UP!

@ DOORBERT, go on o kudasai!

Nothing to back up your words coward... only insults and lies...

Now hear this, all you military personell. If you are ordered to attack Iran you had better question why.

The reason your leaders are so concerned is that Iran has built the technology offered to all countries by the Keshe Foundation. This technology is Tesla related. Your leaders are positioning you people to be the patsies for a world war.

The Iranians are a peaceful people but they intend to defend themselves from the ever pursuing sharks called Zionist jewish people.

If you are a parent of a service member, write your senator. Tell them that you know our military is being used.

Damn, who pissed in your cheerios this morning, hm?

yes now about real jobs a real economy and real families

oh wait the military has no clue wat these three things are

I agree.

Because there would be so much trash talk going on if say,
China, Russia, NK, Iran, Venezuela, and twenty of their closest buddies were to hold the same exercise to turn the
US into a Parking Lot.

Israel and the US WANT war and they won't stop until they get it.

Be careful what you wish for.

It's actually certain big cities in America that are going to be turned into glass parking lots. I figured out last night that this is why we had to have a foreigner as the "president," someone who actually hates the United States. So he could sit idly by while Russia/China/whoever launches ICBMs at San Diego, Seattle, Orlando, New York, and Dallas (probably others, too).

Romney knows about this, too. We are being betrayed at the highest levels, by those who would rearrange our country, and the world, to suit themselves.

Pray for our country, please, and for the sick minds of those who would do this.

hummm..Iran hasn't done DAMN THING TO WARRANT AN ATTACK.

Guess the American fools really need the oil, or need the oil to be traded solely in their worthless pieces of green paper.

even the head of the Israeli IDF states they are NOT developing a nuke.

American public just a bunch of sound bite morons. Hopefully this war will result in China and Russia coming in and flattening the US back to the stone age.

IRAN MILITARY WILL STRIKE U.S.A. AIRCRAFT CARRIERS 700KM+ BALLISTIC CLUSTER WARHEADS

Here is a new 20 minute youtube video which is basically a short radio show. The topic is how Israel and Mossad are the ones behind the fake anti-Islam movie, the killing of the US ambassador, and how they are using all of this to build up to a massive false flag attack which will be used to justify attacking Iran and starting World War 3.

I wonder if in this exercise the Western fleets will actually win against Iran? (unlike last time) :-p

Truth can be stranger than fiction!

Actually, i would want Israel to do it, just to see them get Fajr stormed.

This weekend is a "new moon" as well. Militarily, this condition is favorable for a first strike. Good to see you DB. Hope you're well my friend. 5*
