Iran, Warning Shots, and Returning to the Antediluvean Age
 |
A littoral vessel which does coastal patrol called the USS Thunderbolt fired warning shots at an Iranian Navy Ship in the Persian Gulf. Similar incidents have occurred prior to this and it is said that the tensions are flaring.
The Iranian Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps may well wish to incur the consequences resulting from challenging a Nimitz Class air craft carrier of the United States Navy.
Prudence would be better served maintaining a respectable distance lest the warships be provoked into sending the entire Iranian population back to the antediluvian age where they may once again pursue those conveniences like the rediscovery of fire, fashioning stone weapons, domesticating animals, and hunter-gatherer pursuits while cultivating lives outside of caves.
I simply cannot imagine that Noah would approve of such antics in the presence of a seapower significant enough to make a hostile force disappear into nothingness.
