Iran Couldn\’t Navigate It\’s Way Out Of A Burqa

Remember that Boy Scout whiny brat that got lost in the woods a couple weeks ago? I think I\’m beginning to understand how he got lost. Clearly he must have taken the Iranian version of the Orienteering Merit Badge. Check out this map brought to us by the seldom reliable AP….
![\"Map](\"http://www.eckernet.com/images/D8O5FP200.jpg\" "\\"Map")
Ok since the AP does a shitty job explaining why this situation is comical, I\’ll have to fill in (as usual).
Now let\’s pay attention to the positions. Position X, is the actual position of the British boarding party, compliments of the GPS coordinates of their craft. Position 1 is the first location the Iranians said the vessel was located. When the British dutifully notified the Iranians that this was still within Iraqi waters, they changed their mind and said the vessel was at Position 2.
Seriously, if you\’re gonna make up some story about a vessel being in your territorial waters, at least make sure your story uses a location that isn\’t actually outside your territorial waters, which means it was YOU that invaded another country\’s territory. Causes really, otherwise the only morons you\’re going to convince is nutcases like Rosie \”9/11 was an inside job\” O\’Donnell, who apparently thinks this whole thing is another Gulf of Tonkin. Hell even France thinks Iran is wrong…which answers the age long question, of who is dumber, Rosie or the French. Historical Footnote : This marks the first French victory in anything.
I think just the fact that Rosie agrees with Iran is the strongest proof that they are in the wrong. Although now the Iranians are saying the British can have their people back if they just admit they were wrong. Which sort of proves that point. It was never about these people \”invading\”, it was about Iran giving a big \”fuck you\” to the world. And with Russian intelligence now reporting a massive US military buildup on the Iranian border and the biggest naval force since the Iraq invasion, this makes Iran\’s \”small penis syndrome\” awfully dangerous.
Now remember UN, these are the guys that claim they only want nuclear weapons power for peaceful purposes.

There is one heck of a lot of damage the US could do to Iran with very minor effort. It could be covert, like having their ONLY oil refinery suddenly having a terrible fire, or “something” happening to one of their highly vulnerable offshore oil loading facilities. Or it could be bolder, like just siezing a “buffer zone” along Iraq, digging in, and daring the Iranians to try to take it back.
Their politics and economy is so fragile now, just about anything will bring them down. It’s just a question of how hard we need to push, and how fast.

well, if we are going to talk about damage the US could do to iran… its close enough to iraq that it could fall under my 51st state plan… let me know if you’d like to hear how we could handle it… given the land mass, i’d be okay splitting it and calling it the 51st and 52nd states plan… and people say i’m not open minded…

I think I would be happier if we could just bribe Iran off by giving them a couple of OUR states– say California and Massachusetts to start, with threats of more if they don’t behave.

Hey, go easy on the French there. At least they’re being supportive. And they’ve had some victories in the past (like 100+ years ago). They had a pretty kick-ass Navy back in the day. Like when a man-o-war was a dingy with a shot gun up on the bow…

Don’t forget to give the French credit for sinking the Rainbow Warrior.
