Just a single day after Iranian warships approached U.S. waters, one of the country’s top naval commanders is threatening to kill American soldiers and destroy U.S. vessels. These remarks come on the heels of Iranian television propaganda threatening violent retribution against the United States and Israel if the country ‘is threatened’.
“The Americans can sense by all means how their warships will be sunk with 5,000 crews and forces in combat against Iran and how they should find its hulk in the depths of the sea,” Rear Admiral Ali Fadavi, the commander of the elite Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) Navy, was quoted as saying Sunday in the regional press.Fadavi issued these threats just a day after Iranian war vessels were reported to have approached U.S. maritime borders.
“Iran’s military fleet is approaching the United States’ maritime borders, and this move has a message,” Iranian Admiral Afshin Rezayee Haddad was quoted as saying by the semi-official Fars News Agency.
Iran dispatched the war fleet in “response to Washington’s beefed up naval presence in the Persian Gulf,” where American ships are stationed to help keep international shipping lanes safe, according to the report.
Is this an example of what the Obama administration has negotiated?

Does anybody have proof of these ships or that the ppl in the video are really who they say they are? I trust not what the news says anymore and I wouldn’t doubt that this is another propaganda show to get americans on board when a ship is suddenly attacked. We couldn’t get to them thru Syria so what better way than stage something. I hope if it is real that its just rhetoric and nothing else. Does anyone on here know of anyone from iran that they can ask if they saw this on tv?
The funny thing is, this Iranian war ship is actually one of our old Navy Destroyers that we sold them. Husseins foreign policy sucks as much as his presidency.
bring it
I bet we are still giving them money and arms
What do you think we would do if a hostile foreign nation put warships off our coast. A little lesson in hypocrisy if you ask me.
Yeah, but he had Hillary, and now has Kerry——no wonder we’ve got trouble.
imagine that with a torpedo locked on to the Iranian battleship without them even knowing! lol!
Remember the Japanese and Pearl Harbor,if these talks are really going on right now and these ships are near the US soil/or ships….remember the Japanese were talking with our government when Pearl Harbor was bombed!!! I say IF these statements and pictures are true!
Drone time
Wipe them off the face of the earth!!!
