Their "navy" is soon to earn the nickname The Deep Six!

They can cause some real trouble for a short period of time.

This is a case where action should be taken to defang the Iran Navy before they create the trouble they plan. Am not saying it's the responsibility of the US...

This is one of the best things I've ever read!

Their navy would already be deployed but they’re missing a few oars, and they can’t paddle fast enough

McHale's Navy...

--Television comedy series from 1962-1966--

(The show centered on the commander of a World War II P.T. boat and his oddball crew's wacky schemes which tends to get them into trouble.)

I can attest to the fact that paddle craft can go as fast as you can paddle them.

The internet says Iran has ~20 subs. It looks like that count may be increasing soon.

I’m sure their subs are as deadly as the one at Disneyland…

Praying that they are dealt with and sunk immediately.

When I was a kid I loved the submarine ride!

I suspect one US submarine could take out all of the Iranian subs before they know what hit them. I took a peek at their subs... I definitely wouldn't feel safe crewing on some of them.

Deadly for whom? The sailors in them?

Rode that when I was about 5 years old or so. Sometime before that, I had received a red and white Zebco fishing pole and reel, and lost it over the side of a boat when my uncle took us kids fishing for bream. When I got to Disney and on that sub, I was glued to the porthole looking for my fishing pole. I was sure it must be down there somewhere.

Sounds like the way a 5 year old mind would work!

Don't you mean decreasing? Unless you are referring to the number of Iranian surface vessels that will be down deep soon.

Exactly. But now what? It's said to be a cease fire.
