Nov 18, 2008 - I am a Navy veteran (USS America) that was let go from my job after 16 yrs. I am a 45 yr. old white male, South Carolina resident & American Legion member. I am a hard worker & I don't believe in sitting on my rear collecting a check. I am looking in the following counties: Aiken, Edgefield, Greenwood, Lexington, Newberry & Saluda. Any assistance that anyone can give me is appreciated. Either reply or call 864-554-0517 or 864-445-8545 if you know of any prospects in these counties. Thanks.

Nov 18, 2008 - Geeze for all you know Bush faked this also. They deployed aircraft carriers and destroyers to start a Air Raid Attack over Iran along with Israels Air Force will take out the Iraninan Nuclear Facilities. Just watch, in a few months before Bush gets out of office, or he stages another attack and cancels the 2008 Elections.

Nov 18, 2008 - the distance between NY and Iranian shores is 6416 miles away. if the Iranian ships were 15 miles of the Iranian shore that would put them 6399 miles of the US shore line!!so according to the US navy anything that comes within 6399 miles from the US coast should be toast.

Doowoo Says:

Nov 18, 2008 - Its international waters!

LettegusZR1 Says:

Nov 18, 2008 - Why did the Americans deploy a nuclear submarine to the Persian gulf? Common why are you callin him stupid when its you. Do you think that the US will allow Iran to complete any nuclear product? I don't think so whether is Bush, McCain or Obama its gonna happen.

ooroborus Says:

Nov 18, 2008 - It seems US is now planning to fight with a whole world at same time. Well, all i fear is nuclear apocalypse. And what americans fear? Are they really going to win?Or maybe american people is also destined to be a sacrifice in someone's bloody games?Think about it. greets from Russia.

rishnix Says:

Nov 18, 2008 - Wow, are you for real? I mean could you seriously believe this? America doesn't work like that pal.

16sag7 Says:

Nov 18, 2008 - America doesn't act like what? Get real yourself, habeas corpus has been suppended and the government has the power to put US citizens in labor camps and a host of other things if martial law is declared. Take the time to research the executive orders Bush has signed in to law without the approval of congress. Do this search and you tell me what the US is capable of doing.

rishnix Says:

Nov 18, 2008 - Do you feel like a fool yet. It takes more than just the president to get a law passed. On top of that, as happens every 4 years, America had an election and come January of 2009, Obama will be the president. No labor camps, no martial law. So sorry to disapoint you.

16sag7 Says:

Nov 18, 2008 - rishnix: No I don't feel like a fool. It was my hope this did not happen. What you don't understand as more people become more informed about these things there a less possibility for them to happen. There are millions that are aware the plans of the NWO and that alone had an impact on the out come of events. This was on the agenda of the Bush adminstration is partly why he was not impeached because congress was afraid of Bush declaring mashal law.

Nov 18, 2008 - I guess the Cole is something that most of these people have forgotten. Iranian swift boats did that damage. It killed several people on board the U.S. Navy ship. I guess most of the people commenting on this video are either liberals or anti-American.

mynameistoejam Says:

Nov 18, 2008 - Somali pirates and Iranian terrorists are trying to stop free trade. The world needs us to protect the shipping lanes or else these people will stop it if it's a ship of a nation they don't like, i.e. Isreal.

mynameistoejam Says:

Nov 18, 2008 - wow, you are not practicing what you preach. You said that guy has a bad attitude but what about you? "...defecate in your empty skull?" that's ugly.

JAK3THETUB3 Says:

Nov 18, 2008 - That's laughable. Iran against the US Navy? Hahaha! They don't want our fleets, haze grey, and underway, coming to their doorstep. BIG mistake on their part. But hey... Let 'em find out the hardway.

themengsk176 Says:

Nov 18, 2008 - Yeah, how dare they try to defend the waters right off their coast, it's not like they don't have ships 30 miles off our coast..Oh wait, they don't.We don't belong there, and the fact that we are there in force means that we're rubbing ourselves in their noses.Jingoism and yankey aggression is a bad thing people.

JAK3THETUB3 Says:

Nov 18, 2008 - There in force? They've already threatend to target 32 of our military bases. So, we should just sit back and not prepare? Of course we are off their coast. We have ships all over the world. We have US Troops through out the world. Bases, Embassys, etc..IN the water, on land. That's how it goes. Don't you think they might reconsider if we have Aircraft carriers parked at their front door? I know I would. We don't have to launch a damn thing. They know we are their and I'm sure that's enough.
