Mr Trump, you started it and we will end it.

Iran media warns Donald Trump, after US strikes on Iran's nuclear sites, and airs map of US military bases in Middle East.

All US bases are located in neighboring Arab states (Jordan, Kuwait, UAE, Qatar (CENTCOM),Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Oman, Iraq, and Syria). The last thing for Iran to do is complicate matters by involving her Muslim neighbors.

The smart thing for Iran to do is to strike US aircraft carriers. They are ducks sitting in the Mediterranean (USS Truman and Gerald Ford), Gulf of Eden (USS Carl Vinson), and the Arabian Sea (USS Nimitz), multi-billion dollar targets for a barrage of Iran's hypersonic missiles. One hit on their flight decks, and their fighter jets are benched, and Donald Trump is sunk.

What you're saying is literally quite true. Considering that a Navy Frigate with a vertically projected cannon can sink any US carrier or any US destroyer even while parked right beside one, would suggest the true obsolescence of the US Navy as a formidable force to reckon with.

What you're saying is literally quite true.

What is also true is that naval warfare is outdated. First of all, gone are the days when international trade routes and flow of commerce were controlled by the British navy. The US took over the role of sea policeman of the world by building 12 carrier strike groups. The truth is, not all of them can be deployed at the same time. For every one deployed at sea, one is in dock for repairs while another is being refitted for deployment. The American people are paying a huge price for strutting around as a superpower.

Sure! America isn't what it pretends to be ..and America doesn't have what it thinks it has ..and America can't be what it wants to be without the help of other nations to keep America supplied with what America doesn't have of it's own.

Any questions?
