Iranian Revolutionary Guard Commander Says Iran Has Upper Hand Over the US

The leader of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard told supporters that Iran has the upper hand over the US and that the US would suffer the heaviest damage if it dares to launch an attack on the regime.
Fars News reported:
A senior commander of the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) underlined that Iran has the upper-hand and the initiative in the Persian Gulf, and warned the US that it will sustain the heaviest damage if it ever dares to launch a war on Iran.
Addressing a ceremony in Iran’s Southern port city of Bushehr on Wednesday, Commander of the IRGC Navy Rear Admiral Ali Fadavi pointed to the status quo in the strategic Persian Gulf, and added, “Under the present conditions, pressure has been laid on Iran to the highest level possible, but Iran has the initiative in the region, and the issues raised by the US and its allies also confirm this fact.”
“If Americans are after shooting (at Iran), an economic and military havoc will wreak on them,” Fadavi said.
“The conditions and requirements of war against Iran will not be prepared for the Americans, therefore the loss and damage of war with Iran is way beyond its benefits,” Fadavi said.
Iranian officials have repeatedly warned the trans-regional states, specially the US, to pull their troops and warships out of the Persian Gulf.

Iran’s navy of oil burnin’ piston slappers have all been targeted and could be destroyed within an hour if our fearless leader ever had the guts to give the order.

Remember we were all told about Saddam’s dreaded, totally ruthless, battle-hardened, military forces? They turned out to be nothing but a bunch of boot-licking, toothless, neutered puppies.
This is nothing but typical bluster we’ve heard before from muslims who believe in their own allah-given superiority over the unbelievers. Fear not. They’ll run with their tails between their legs at the first sign of trouble.

go back to sleep..
Aimed at co-opting Americas foreign policy in the Middle East, a
network including well-known American diplomats, congressional
representatives, figures from academia and the think tank world –
with ties to the clerical regime in Tehran – is directing the Obama
Administration’s policy towards the Islamic Republic of Iran and
the Middle East.”

That’s a given, considering the current CiC and his team…

I’m actually beginning to be fearful that Obama wouldn’t even defend our country if we were attacked.
Dianne commented:
What this tells me is that they are NOT ready for an attack by the US and would get their asses kicked and they know it. That’s why they are yelping so loud. They are hoping to strike fear into us so that we’ll be too afraid to attack, because they are not ready. If they were, they’d be welcoming an attack, since they want to kill us so bad.
They all use this same tactic over and over again.

Rumor has it that Iran acquired a couple of nukes and maybe 4 tactical shells (or more) from Kazhakstan after the breakup of the Soviet Union.
If true (how the heck would I know?), what would a 1 kiloton tactical shell do to an aircraft carrier?
I’m not arguing against taking out/down the mullahs – but perhaps everyone needs to have their eyes wide open.

You sure his name wasn’t Reid, the Iranian commander?
I think that Reid guy said the same thing against that invincible Red guard of Iraq’s. Where is that invincible military now?

Well, considering he despises this country you have a good reason to be fearful.
WillofLa commented:
This guy is a dope. We’ve already kicked the hell out of a couple of Republican Guards, Revolutionary Guards, what-the-hell-else-they-are-called-guards, and they were burnt to the ground and rolled over with our tanks. What is this guy, some kind of idiot, he doesn’t remember Iraq, the Taliban in Afghanistan? Where has he been for the past ten years, under a rock?
If you Iranian’s want some, c’mon over here and get you some!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
WillofLa commented:
You dummy Iranian’s must not be paying attention to the news, or you’re def or something. Didn’t you hear about this past Christmas?? You didn’t hear about more guns bought than any other time in the history of this nation? You don’t know that there are about 30 million American’s who are lawful gun owners now? Do you have 30 million soldiers, terrorists inside the country, or where ever else you keep these cowards? And that is, in case you don’t read so well, 30,000,000,000 gun owners, not just guns.
SO, C’MON OVER HERE AND GET YOU SOME YOU BUNCH OF RAG HEADS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
WillofLa commented:
And I want to put the word out right now to the FBI! You people had better be finding all these terrorists who’ve crossed our border with Mexico, get yourselves down to the border and attack that Hamas basecamp just over the border. Do you know how to do that? And let me say this, SCREW MEXICO’S SOVEREIGNTY, THEY OWE US BIG TIME, AND SHOULD BE TAKING CARE OF THIS PROBLEM, NOT US!! We ought not to have to do Mexico’s job of patroling the border to make sure there aren’t any MUSLIM terrorist basecamps right on their soil!
Are they crazy???? You guys in the FBI don’t have to worry about getting into trouble, because we’ll back you up and will raise holy hell if you do. We’ll get you off. We still have enough money to pay for lawyers, but that is IF, IF you get caught. You guys know how NOT to get caught, don’t you????? You guys go down there and kill those MUSLIM’S you have our permission!!!

When Barry promised to negotiate without preconditions, with an open hand, with a tyrannical terrorist state, is it any wonder they have the upper hand over the US?
