Iran says it has full control of Gulf, U.S. Navy does not belong there

“All the carriers and military and non-military ships will be controlled and there is full supervision over the Persian Gulf. Our presence in the region is physical and constant and night and day.”

We can ensure the security of the Persian Gulf and there is no need for the presence of aliens like the U.S. and the countries whose home is not in here,” he said in the quote, which appeared in English translation on Tasnim.

Iran says it has full control of Gulf, U.S. Navy does not belong there

This seems like posturing and escalation there is an Iranian training exercise Just deployed but with this rhetoric it'll be something to watch Closely With many ships involved....... Its on fox news as well......

US belongs in united states. The invaders (US) has no right to be there unless it was permitted of course.

It's international waters, the United States Navy, and whoever else wants to, can go there.

They're always running their mouth. Let them.

They know better than to trifle with Trump, they know he's not going to bend over and say please sir may I have another like Obama did.

Hope they are prepared for some classic trump tweets.
As soon as he finishes his McDonald's I'm sure he will put it out there.

No doubt the next newest us carrier,the uss mccain, will be there to control everything.

Reef restoration is needed to help our oceans, seems to me they are volunteering a few ships with this stance. What ever happened to their threat (Iran) to sit off the American coast ....in international waters ? Not so much ....

The McCain is an Arleigh Burke Class destroyer, the Gerald Ford is the newest CV.

Iran is in control of the Gulf of Mexico???


I bet Florida, Texas, Nebraska and the rest of the Gulf states aren't very happy about this.

Why can’t we rename the McCain as the Trump? I mean, when the navy starts sinking Iranian ships, if there’s anyone left from the Iranian crews, when they respond as to what happened, the Iranians can then say that they got Trumped.

The McCain is named after all 3 McCains. McCains grand father, his father and the senator. All John S. McCains.

The Navy saved itself some money there.

Maybe we can get a garbage scow named as the SS Drumpf.

The newest info about this is that iran just took control of one of the shipping lanes.
That's what fox just told me for like 2 sec....

I'm waiting for them to talk more about it but they are stuck on the florida shooting.

At least it’d still be afloat.... too soon?

Iran trying to take over the strait is bad news..

I doubt it would be casually on the news like this..

I think its lost in translation, something like

'' we can take over the strait when ever we please ''

or

'' we ultimately have control when we choose to exercise it ''

Iran controlling the gulf is like a 5 year old controlling the sand pit when the adults “US Navy” come to play. You can posture all day long but Iranian naval power is a non issue.
