Adam ,   Adam   (11.24.12)
Practise makes perfect When the F22 comes you'll know it's for real, but then you won't see it coming will you ?
2. An Iranian response could be -
Arn. ,   Sweden.   (11.24.12)

3. Oh!
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (11.24.12)
Is that what Hussein Obama told Iran to say?
4. The mouse that roared?
bad Assed Jew ,   United States   (11.24.12)
Why is it that I can never take the Iranians seriously? They remind me of the Keystone cops... Funny although not meaning to be. Somehow, they are more like clowns than 'new world oder' psychopaths that they are proven to be. I doubt that the US military will changes their orders to satiate these lunatics.
5. Not the first Disagreement
Mark of Lewiston ,   USA   (11.24.12)
This is hardly the first nor will it be the last disagreement. There was a naval battle in the 80s that eventually went to an international court There is a reason US navy ships are armed.
6. OBAMA PROBABLY DOES NOT..........#3
MAHMOOD ,   LONDON-UK   (11.24.12)
Even know about it as there are strong indication of outside influence to the Naval command in the Persian Gulf to create some kind of mischief with the Iranians.You seem to be lacking knowledge on the updates from the Intelligence Department. However, the reaction will not be of any help to you.

10. Hahahaha! Iran sends a warning...
RichInBoston ,   Boston USA   (11.24.12)
Just what are they going to do about, scramble their F4 Phantom jets from 1972. Hahahahaha. Clearly the over flights are in preparation for what's about to come. Too bad the Iranians won't even see it coming. How's that mahmoody?
11. WHAT THEY WOULD BE ABLE TO.....#10
MAHMOOD ,   LONDON-UK   (11.24.12)
Is too difficult to predict but it also means that USA will have to think twice before violating the airspace again,Ricla!
12. TO NO 3 SARAH B
sam ,   colorado-USA   (11.24.12)
Hussein Obama knows very well where the interests of his country first striking Iran militarily .... in favor of Israel and means the New Middle East without Iran. this war now will volatility of the region upside down because the whole area over the hot tin easy start of the war, but no one knows when the end and how will end? Is not in the interest of neither America nor Israel even moderate Arabs.
13. FURTHERMORE...................................#10
MAHMOOD ,   LONDON-UK   (11.24.12)
If what you write that the Iranians will not know what was coming,I am afraid you only have to refer to the various statements made by higher authorities in Washington.I am sure you won't like it but it is my duty to awaken you from the slumber.
14. #13 - #1 is referring to the F22 aircraft
michael redbourn ,   Arad Israel   (11.24.12)
The Lockheed Martin/Boeing F-22 Raptor is a single-seat, twin-engine fifth-generation super-maneuverable fighter aircraft that uses stealth technology. Hence Iran won't see it coming.
15. DO MAKE SURE...................................#14
MAHMOOD ,   LONDON-UK   (11.24.12)
You remind me when the F-22 actually makes it way to the Iranian air-space and gets away with its stealth technology.I am aware of its capabilities.Having one and making use of it are two different issues. Keep dreaming,in the meant time.
16. #15, You are misinformed
Robert ,   New Jersey, USA   (11.24.12)
Stealth technology refers to the radar-evading capabilities of the way the fighter is designed and built. It does not reflect radar signals back to the source and much of the body is made of composite materials. It will appear the size of a bird to Iranian radar. As to making use of the Raptor, are you suggesting the American fighter pilots are on a level with Iranian fighter pilots? If so, you are the dreamer!
17. #6 mahmoud...you seem to be lacking knowledge...
solomon ,   bklyn   (11.25.12)
and even basic intelligence. You yourself have no knowledge of “the Intelligence Department” (whatever that is) and use your wild imagination time and time again. Keep it coming; it’s so ludicrous it’s funny.
18. To: No. 12
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (11.25.12)
Do you truly believe that Iran should be allowed to continue its course of pursuit of nuclear weapon capability? For heaven's sake, Sam, stop and THINK for a minute! Turn for a moment, if you can, from the political arena. Iran shouldn't even be allowed to have nuclear reactors for so-called "peaceful" purposes -- which is decidedly not their intent. There is no more earthquake-prone country on the planet. Iran doesn't get small "shiver and shake" tremors -- they get massive earthquakes, over 8.0 on the Richter scale. Separate from wars (in its most recent pathetic show against Iraq, Iran lost one million soldiers, and heaven knows how many civilians -- probably half that), earthquakes have killed more people in Iran than anything else. And that's saying something, for a country where death in childbirth is commonplace and whose infant mortality rate is around 41 deaths per 1,000 live births. (That's considered brutally primitive, by the way, Sam. Israel's, by contrast, is 4 deaths per 1,000 live births, and those deaths are attributable chiefly to women suffering from toxemia and eclampsia who do not terminate their pregnancies, or Bedouin women who eschew giving birth in hospitals and encounter serious complications which result in death.) That's just background. Do you really think a country that sits astride three major active fault lines should be allowed to endanger the world thus? Do you think that putting their nuclear facilities underground in some manner protects the world? No. Iran's earthquakes come from deep underground, and Iran's nuclear reactors are buried in that precise zone. The damage will be far worse. Is that a risk that you think the world should be asked to take, Sam? Or do you think that Iran needs to be stopped -- for geophysical reasons, never mind their primitive social mindset although, heaven knows, there's no shortage of that -- face it; 41 deaths per thousand live births is shockingly high. I should think that normal people would strive to fix that first, before worrying about acquiring nuclear weapons to use against Israel and other countries. What do YOU think?
19. TO NO 18 Sarah B
sam ,   colorado-USA   (11.27.12)
I think always Israel calls Iran the greatest nuclear threat but on the other side Muslim nations and Iran to criticize Israel's secretive atomic program. Israel's Arab neighbors have repeatedly demanded that it declare itself, join the Nonproliferation Treaty and open its nuclear activities to full inspection by the International Atomic Energy Agency Israel rejects - double standards What do YOU think?
