Reminding the Americans who’s boss, as if the Obama administration didn’t know.
“IRGC Navy Commander Fadavi: American Vessels Will Be Sunk in the Persian Gulf If They Make the Slightest Mistake,” MEMRI, May 10, 2016:
In a recent TV interview, IRGC Navy Commander Ali Fadavi said: “The Americans are aware that if they make even the slightest mistake, their naval vessels will be sunk in the Persian Gulf, the Hormuz Strait, and the Sea of Oman.” He further claimed that Iran’s vessels would emerge from “undersea tunnels,” in which “no force will be able to harm our naval vessels.” In the interview, which aired on IRINN TV on May 10, Fadavi maintained that the crew of U.S. vessels is now obliged to speak Farsi in the Persian Gulf, and indeed do so.
KrazyKafir says
Well, I guess after the way the US navy commander acted when detained, and the capitulation in chief, how can anyone blame them for their swaggering bravado
noel lsq says
It really is a shame probably the POTUS would say we are sorry and give them more money if they sunk one of our ships. They have and are shi–ing on us everyday and we turn the other cheek.
Gungadin says
Where the HELL are the military men of years gone bye? The Nimitz’s the Pattons and MEN instead of WUSSIES that we currently have in our armed services?
I cant really fault the GI’s of today after all they’re all under the direction of the horsesarse that currently sits in the white house — whose SUCH a PANSY that I shudder to think what another democrat in the office of prez will bring to this nation. GO TRUMP 2016 and bring back American leadership !!
Carolyne says
Our military has been culled of its loyal officers and replaced by Obama’s minions.
Mark Swan says
As much as He could make that happen…I am sure He has.
Rob Porter says
Gungadin, I couldn’t agree more about the American military men we see on tv today – and those I’ve seen in congressional hearings. Those on tv have mostly been pathetic specimens, in my estimation weak men who wouldn’t say boo to a goose and couldn’t fight their way out of a wet paper bag. Those I’ve seen in congressional hearings were inarticulate and thick as an Australian brick. Whatever happened to men of the Patreaus and Stanley McChrystal character? Where are they now? Why are they not speaking out about the rot Obama the useless bastard has created.
Wellington says
I’m reminded here of what Humphrey Bogart playing Sam Spade in The Maltese Falcon said, to wit, “The cheaper the crook, the gaudier the patter.”
jihad3tracker says
Hello again Wellington —-
I, too, am a fan of Mr. Bogart, and the irretrievably gone decades of acting / direction / screenwriting by mature adults who had to struggle for their salaries.
Your quote reminds me of another excellent film. with Bogey as Philip Marlowe.
Rich old man’s daughter Vivian to Marlowe — “Well, you’re a mess, aren’t you?”
Marlowe — “I’m not very tall either. Next time I’ll come on stilts, wear a white tie, and carry a tennis racket.”
Vivian — “I doubt if even that would help.”
Replace Vivian with this IRGC commander, and Marlowe with Barry Hussein Soetoro’s seditionist weakling suck-ups to Iran. Presto !!! The words we read above in Robert’s post.
My only consoling thought?
Our P.O.S. president will eventually be written about in Islamic Republic biographies, where top-dog mullahs bloviate extensively on the complete utter “more available than a goat” contempt they hold for him.
And Obama will still be around to face it. Not much in return for the damage he inflicts every week upon American freedom and culture — but, hey, life is not fair.
Wellington says
Hello again to you, jihad3tracker. Oh yeah, I remember that exchange between Bogey and the beautiful Martha Vickers from The Big Sleep (which I’ve probably seen at least twenty times). Of course, Bogey was being sarcastic while a fool like John Kerry is dead serious when he spouts the nonsense he does.
As for Obama, I hope he lives a long life and that truth prevails because if both occur then the Fool-in-Chief will see his legacy ridiculed and trashed as it so certainly deserves to be. Take care, my friend.
mortimer says
No doubt, history will judge Obama’s Islamopandering very harshly.
A third of the world’s oil passes through the Strait of Hormuz. A pipeline bypassing the Persian Gulf would be the cheapest option to thwart the Iranian brinkmanship.

Great quote.
Bob Bowman says
Let us remind Iran that their idol threats mean nothing. Israel taught can them a lesson years ago and would do so again. The US dies but fear any country least of all Iran.
Peter Charles says
The Iranian azzhats have 7 more to strut and posture on a stage where they have yet to meet the US Navy at even 1 percent of their capabilities. He will not survive if we up it to 20 percent….
TH says
An inferior Navy is useless. This was proven in the First World War, when the German Navy only dared to come out of the ports on one occasion and they were defeated in the Battle of Jutland. A Navy has to be able to project power far from its own coasts. Iran has no such capability. Just like Sadam and his tanks which were useless, the Iranian navy is also a mere coast guard.
Bindon Blood says
This is not far short of a declaration of war. The U.S and the allies should call their bluff and at the slightest provocation blow them out of the water. Trouble is Obama and Cameron and their spineless compatriots are in government.We need Churchill,Reagan,Thatcher to teach these loud moths a lesson they will never forget.
Bindon Blood says
“Loud Moths” are not a threat. Should be “loud mouths”
linnte says
Making our sailors speak Farsi? What is that all about? They MUST be monitoring radio talk.
Custos Custodum says
Of course, the Iranians tell the truth only accidentally, but come to think about it, would it really be surprising if Barry’s girls (such as John Kerry) had indeed agreed that communications between U.S. military vessels and Iran must be conducted in Farsi. Such an arrangement would make sense as an excuse to plant Muslim Iranian immigrants of doubtful allegiance on U.S. vessels in the Persian Gulf.
(For the avoidance of doubt – there are plenty of Persian Americans who are entirely loyal. However, special care needs to be taken in the selection and posting of military and government personnel to avoid conflicts between family and personal loyalties and the interests of the United States.)

What a joker 🙂

He’s been watching too much Troy Tempest lol

Hi Angemon,
Who can say now that Muslims don’t have a sense of humor? Only a fool…. 🙂

What undersea tunnels… What are they? Worms?

I got yer tunnel Mohammed.
Walter Sieruk says
That is Navy commander of this Islamic rogue nation of Iran has the extreme gall as to make the threat that if the American vessels even “make even [the] slightest mistake,their naval vessels will be sunk…”That defiant statement just reflect the total arrogance of the mullahs and others in power in this tyrannical Islamic regime of Iran This Islamic contempt they have goes further then their hate for America. Their Islamic arrogance and contempt also extents to the State of Israel .For example, On Monday may 8 2016 it was reported on CBN that Iran just two days before had launched another “test firing” of a missile. So CBN also report that that the missile had printed on it in Hebrew the words Israel must be wiped out.” This exposes much of the vicious and hostile Islamic mindset of those in power in Iran.
Walter Sieruk says
That Iranian Navy commander in saying such an outlandish and outrageous statement full and hostility, contempt and gall in his threat of sinking US naval vessels is a revealing reflection of those arrogant mullahs, ayatollahs and other fiendish Muslim tyrants in power in Iran. So much so the those vicious and oppressive villains in power in this Islamic regime are similar to ,in character,those wicked men described in the Bible in Psalm 73:6-9. Which reads “Therefore pride is their necklace; they clothe themselves with violence. From the callous hearts comes iniquity ; the evil conceits of their minds know no limits. They scoff and speak with malice; in their arrogance they threaten oppression. Their mouths lay claim to heaven., and their tongues take possession of the earth.” [N.I.V.]

Iranian Navy Commander: If Americans “make even slightest mistake, their naval vessels will be sunk in the Persian Gulf”
………………………..
See how well our appeasement of them is working? sarc/off
elana says
Some twit on u-tube posted after Obummer signed the nuclear deal with Iran. She said “oh, oh, oh, I feel so much safer already” I think she came too soon…..
gravenimage says
Yes–it’s absurd but you still find all too many idiots who believe that this has brought us “peace in our time”.
HJM says
but but, “for the sake of peace we must submit”.
FuturePresident says
For the sake of freedom we must fight.
Gungadin says
RIGHT ON !!
Sam says
I think we need to send more money to IRAN. What do you think?
Angemon says
I think you’re right. Those “frozen assets” should be converted into MOABs and delivered straight to the ayatolah’s house from a stealth bomber.
SoCalMike says
Obama is the boy in love with the Iranians and they know they have in him a boy with a high school boy crush on them.
They can count on him to surrender and humiliate American military and the American people.
No just Obama though.
Anyone on the Left.
Hillary, Biden, Kerry, Sanders.
That’s how the Left is.
They are traitors.
FuturePresident says
Iran, your time is coming!
FuturePresident says
This is a declaration of war. When elected any violent act against American civilians or benign soldiers will be seen as an act of war against America, and I will allow the use of the atomic bomb. I don’t care what the U.N or the rest of the world will think. If we must change to appease our allies then they are no allies to us!
Carolyne says
Future Prez, If Hillary Clinton becomes President, you will need to learn to say that in Farsi.
tedh754 says
It would be so cool to put the hammer down on these assclowns and then forget they ever existed.
Annak says
Whatever happened to : “Really ? Then you will be nuked. Or we will just bomb the kaaba, bye bye Islam and just go from there” ? (muslims believe their idol meteorite will never be destroyed if I am correct)
Oh,BO happened.
sooz22 says
Yes, it would be fabulous to nuke ’em, however our sham POTUS would NEVER go to war with the muzzies! They’re his kin! Can Congress declare war without him?
Zub says
IRGC Navy Commander Ali Fadavi has been watching way too to much North Korean propaganda TV.
Champ says
He further claimed that Iran’s vessels would emerge from “undersea tunnels,” in which “no force will be able to harm our naval vessels.”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Uh-huh. Sounds like this is straight out of a Jules Verne science fiction novel …
gravenimage says
Yes, indeed.
Westman says
“Fadavi maintained that the crew of U.S. vessels is now obliged to speak Farsi in the Persian Gulf, and indeed do so.”…”…Iran’s vessels would emerge from “undersea tunnels,” in which “no force will be able to harm our naval vessels.”
More magical Muslim thinking. During a “slight mistake” the US crew may say, “BOOM!”, to Fadavi.
Thomas F Mills says
Let them Blow off their bull-s– now. Mr Trump is taking over in January and obama
And all the rest of the dumbocrat Traitors will be gone and DJT will zapp them.
Gungadin says
I’m chomping at the bit to see the FBI drop the hammer on Killary…..how SWEET that will BE !!
Stewart Davies says
We can all feel hugely relieved that oh so wise Mr. Obama struck that nuclear deal with Iran, thereby ensuring “peace in our time”. And no doubt, in perpetuity
Wakeup says
This guy has to be smoking crack. When admiral yamamoto lead the attack on Pearl Harour against his wishes he said, “I feel all we have done is to awaken a sleeping giant and fill him with a terrible resolve” look how that worked out.
Scorpio says
The current situation in the world is identical to the 1930’s when the Nazi war machine was building and building encouraged on by the appeasers. The lone voice Winston Churchill was castigated for seven years every time he rose to make a speech pointing out the consequences of appeasement.
Here we are, not even 80 years later and the world is again being threatened; not by a nation but by a religious cult roared on by Western appeasers and where is today’s Winston Churchill? I think we might just have found him and if I could appeal to our American cousins for god-sake don’t blow it; we’re all drinking in the last chance saloon, cast your votes for Donald J. Trump. There is no one else – look at the alternative!
ich says
Obama probably held hands with the sailors and had a good long cry
Richie says
If American ships are attacked, Obama will do nothing. Odds are he will offer an unconditional surrender
rappini says
I wonder what this yahoo would say if the Trumpster was POTUS.
David says
My daydream: THE United States Marines, double or triple their present size, is let lose on Iran.
With only one ORDER: neutralize iran, to never again be able to threaten any US interest or Citizen EVER AGAIN!
Yes! How I long for a REAL leader in the White House. Someone with the “stones” to actually take positive action against any and all enemies of this nation and its allies, interests and Citizens.
Anybody else with a “daydream” to share?
Nancy Assaf says
When Iran becomes fully nuclear we can look forward to being annihilated completely when we do “something wrong”. Can’t wait for that.
Florida Jim says
Marxists, Democrats, muslims are always bullies it is only time that separates them.
Geppetto says
That this guy is an IRGC navy commander speaks volumes about the Iranian military. Given that the silver tongued, clueless, narcissistic, Muslim sympathizer, current 7 year resident in the White House, put there, twice, by an equally clueless majority of the American electorate, it is not difficult to determine the source of his outspoken but shallow bombast. He ignores or is unaware of America’s history and mistakenly views America as a paper tiger. The Japanese made the same mistake on December 7, 1941.
Remember, in America, who is the Commander in Chief with the power to arrange via dismissals and appointments, the top down American military command structure? Bingo, if you said BHO. And who, in addition to his equally clueless and feckless SOS, John Kerry, have been the voice and face representing America in what will undoubtedly go down in the history books as one of the worst foreign policy blunders (Obama’s Iranian nuclear arms deal) in our brief history? Bingo, again. Given that, is it any wonder why this Iranian military commander would dare to make such an ill conceived threat?
Does anyone here think that America would not retaliate with an overwhelming response? Unfortunately the answer is yes, and understandably so, but the Iranian military had best control the natural inclination of their military bullies to make idle threats in the face of the top down, directed restraint that they perceive as blatant cowardice. If America ever awakens from its politically correct slumber and takes off the kid gloves of its feckless rules of engagement, the Iranian military will go the way of the Dodo bird (unless Hillary or Bernie is elected POTUS in November in which case: _ _ _. Fill in the blanks).
Jack Holan says
Ooooh they are speaking Farsi supposedly. Even if they are, are they speaking the truth or talking like YOU!!LOL The Military doesn’t speak the same language as John Kerry.
Ralph says
What is most distressing is that the American commander in chief IS a muslin in league with the Iranians.
Carolyne says
Yes, Ralph, sadly you are right. Obama is a Muslim and his every appointment, action and word has been to further the cause of the eventual world-wide Grand Caliphate. It is difficult to believe that he was elected not once, but twice. In fact, it is likely that he attained election by fraud. There is nothing he and his cohorts will not do. And include Hillary Clinton and John Kerry among the cohorts.
common sense says
As usual our superior fire power and superior warriors are hampered by traitor policy makers and a Hussein POTUS to boot.
This guy won’t be speaking like this by 2017.
