Iran's phony carrier

[dannyboys]

So typical of those radial Islamofacists. They don't have the intelligence to actually build a 'Nimitz' class air craft carrier but they are more than capable of building a phony one.
Their stupid 'Navy' consists of a dozen rubber speed boats stolen from a Zodiac distributor in Britain.
I wouldn't be at all surprised to see the idiots accidently explode their first nuclear bomb as it's being paraded down the street in Tehran.

Intelligence officials do not believe that Iran is capable of building an actual aircraft carrier.

Yeah well "intelligence officials" also told us Iraq had WMD's...soo yeah...not buying it.

Given how often "intelligence officials" are right, that is an odd position to take. Take Crimea for example; before Russia set foot in there, US officials were warning that they might be planning to go in. Odds are, if US officials say something, its probably true.
