Served in the Persian Gulf in '87 when Iran was threatening to close the Straits of Hormuz. People don't remember that was a shooting war, though undeclared. We loved it when we saw Caron on "Tonight" doing his monologue.
"The Iranians have developed an amazing new combination warship. It makes its appearance as a PT boat, and upon encountering a U.S. Army Cobra helicopter, converts to a submarine in precisely 2.7 seconds!"
'Course, those Iranian guys never figured out how to resurface, either. Wound up swimming.

I remember during the first gulf war when Baghdad bob and sadam were were being their blowhard selves saying that it was gonna be the "mother of all battles" and such things. It seems that being a blowhard is a common personality trait for the leadership in that part of the world. Kinda like obamas multiple "red line" comments.

Saw that. Meanwhile, our intel chief was telling Congress quite a different story.
So who ya gonna believe? The lyin' swift boat "hero" who ducked outta Vietnam as fast as he could upon getting a third (dubiously deserved) Purple Heart as Navy regs allowed -- to be next spotted in Paris rubbing elbows with the North Vietnamese delegation to the peace talks -- or the guy who actually sees the intel on a daily basis?
Clapper has his own occasional lapses of acquaintance with the truth, but I'll still take his word over that coward Kerry's any day.
I will remind everyone that Persia still existed unto carved up after WW1 and without a major conflict conquered Babylon of old.......The minute we underesitimate Iran (persia).........could lead to our downfall.......a suitcase nuke at the right place and in the right moment followed by a moment of indecision on the part of our illistrious government or maybe even assistance.............
I suppose everyone thought that Goliath could not be brought down with his armor bearers and his huge size and at the end of the day a man of war from his youth was brought down by a stone from a youth!

Basically, if there was no oil in the ground in Iran, that the British and Americans wanted exclusive rights too, there would have been no Iranian revolution or no Iran problem now.
There would have been no BP either.
