Iran Patrol Boats, Drones Shadow CVN-72 Abraham Lincoln As It Passes Through Straits Of Hormuz
The US aircraft carrier Abrham Lincoln, which demonstratively passed through the Straits of Hormuz a month ago just to "test the waters", has now sailed out of the Persian Gulf following a several day stay in the 5th Fleet base in Bahrain. And unlike the previous passage, Iran decided to get up close and personal. As AP reports: "The American aircraft carrier USS Abraham Lincoln has passed through the Strait of Hormuz, shadowed by Iranian patrol boats. But there were no incidents on Tuesday as the Lincoln’s battle group crossed through the narrow strait, which Iran has threatened to close in retaliation for tighter Western sanctions. Several U.S. choppers flanked the carrier group throughout the voyage from the Gulf. Radar operators also picked up an Iranian drone and surveillance helicopter in Iran’s airspace near the strait, which is jointly controlled by Iran and Oman. The Lincoln entered the Gulf last month amid heightened tensions with Iran. It is scheduled to begin providing aiding the NATO mission in Afghanistan starting Thursday." Which mission would that be: the one where the US has withdrawn from? Luckily, this time no "hacker" managed to take over an Iranian boat and to send a few stray torpedoes in the Lincoln's general direction. Hopefully that continues. Also, it is unclear if the drones shadowing CVN-72 were the same that Iran with China's help, reverse engineered after the US drone fell in the middle of Tehran and did not self-destruct.
And some more from the BBC:
The US aircraft carrier Abraham Lincoln has sailed through the Strait of Hormuz, close to the coast of Iran, for the second time in recent weeks.
A BBC reporter on board said an Iranian patrol boat at one point came within about half a mile of the carrier.
The vessel was protected by a US cruiser and destroyer. Iranian officials recently threatened to close the channel, through which 20% of the world's oil exports pass, in a row over oil trade embargoes.
The BBC's Jonathan Beale on board the Abraham Lincoln says the US has insisted it will keep the vital shipping lane open. A French warship and UK naval vessels accompanied the aircraft carrier in a journey through the strait last month.
The EU last month banned all oil imports from Iran amid growing concern over Tehran's nuclear programme.

"USS Abraham Lincoln in Strait of Hormuz voyage"
BBC Central Casting, run by hack writers from the 80's
My, they are piddlin' little boats aren't they? Surely that's not the best Iran can muster...
are you talking about those three ships behind the carrier? Those are American warships, and they are actually really big. They just look small next to a massive carrier. Look close, those are aircraft on the top of the carrier, to give you an idea of the relative size of a carrier. Don't be misled by size though, even a small boat can do a lot of damage. The USS Cole was severely damaged by a small boat with explosives, and smaller boats at close range are more difficult to target than large boats at long range.
Nah, you need to build some bigger boats mate, they won't last two minutes in a punch up...
ummm...try a tomahawk missile based on the hole in the ship and other evidence
Missing the point, they even sneeze on the side of the carrier and it's game over for all of the towel heads.
Maybe a rough start, but a good start indeed.
Let's see, what's a good deragoratory term for an American. Porn junkie? Planet eater? Murderous layabout?
milk shake swilling devils
Actually, the problem is if you give us a derogatory name, we embrace it. Yankee was as bad as any. How'd that one work out?
Go Yankees!
"thought-less wanker" covers all your bases.
The real irony in that attack is that the attack craft was overloaded with explosives on a first try, and sank in the harbor. Under all the activity going on, no one managed to clue in to the guys recovering the explosives and repackaging the stuff for the subsequently successful attack...
"USS Abraham Lincoln in Strait of Hormuz voyage"
a three hour tour?

Say, aren't those three Iranian Aegis destroyers way to close to that carrier?
Look at the flags numbskull. And that's likely a stock AP photo, not one from this trip

One wrong move and here we go...more Debt then we can afford...
"more Debt then we can afford..."
We already have more debt than we can afford!
All we have is debt.
One wrong move???
Do I infer from that that if we don't move at all, we won't have any more debt?
Just curious...
We have more debt then we can afford already, that I agree with. As for one wrong move, usually when two opposing sides are with in 1/2 mile of each other I would hazard a guess that the chance for a mistake to happen goes up by one or two percentage points, and it is Harpoon City or do you disagree with that logic?
when two opposing sides are with in 1/2 mile of each other
---
Let's see here.
One side has missles that can be launched from the back of a flatbed truck. The missiles travel supersonic which means they close the 1/2 mile range in a matter of seconds.
The other side has large floating targets which are incapable of manoeuvre in the narrow straits.
What was the question?
. . . and the target is nuclear-powered, guarenteeing that substantial damage to the carrier would result in the poisoning of Iran's coast at a minimum.
Iran has a long coastline and no beaches.
Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, UAE, Oman, Bahrain on the other hand all depend on desalinization plants for their fresh water. They draw the raw water from the Persian Gulf.
Know any good filters for C-137? I-133?
Huh?
I Suppose you think we can afford the debt we have now.
Nope, never did. I just think us getting into another war, just real fucking stupid.
this will not end well
especially if one of the patrol boats is named John Wilkes Booth...
just don't hit the button...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4DUmoJNQK2ohttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v...
By golly, I bet there were some itchy trigger fingers on both sides during that passage.
No, they know shooting isn't until the second act.
Alan Dershowitz (Armenian, Persian?) in yesterday's WSJ, wrote that the US should consider any attack on an embassy or a SYNAGOGUE an attack on the USA. The Zionists are in a purple panic to get a major war going. Damned if I know why.
Every last name that ends with …WITZ is a JEWISH last name. And Alan Dershowitz is a jew. Here is link to wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alan_Dershowitz
Dershowitz was born in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, to Harry and Claire Dershowitz, an Orthodox Jewish couple, and was raised in Borough Park. His father was a founder and president of the Young Israel Synagogue in the 1960s, served on the board of directors of the Etz Chaim School in Borough Park, and in retirement was co-owner of the Manhattan-based Merit Sales Company.
So an attack on a Brooklyn synagogue by Iranians wouldn't be considered an attack against America?
I've been researching the most holy of books....the Talmud, lately.....

The gentleman on CBS news says the Iranian nuclear program is stabbing, murdering children & women
What else one could expect from Jewish/Zionist propaganda?
Remember the first socialist Jewish-Bolshevik created worker paradise (a.k.a. Soviet Union) with endless extermination camps and mass slavery? It was not a secret for anybody visiting USSR but the Jewish/Zionist mass media did an excellent job hiding the truth.
The same mass media was/is hysterical about Nazi crimes but was absolutely silent about American, British, French, etc., colonial crimes.
Well, nothing is new. Nothing has changed. The same people and the same lies.
BBC, NBC, ABC, CBS, CBC, FOX = Illuminati Controlled Main Stream Media.

"We are grateful to the Washington Post, to the New York Times, Time Magazine and other great publications whose directors have attended our meetings and respected their promises of discretion for almost 40 years. It would have been impossible for us to develop our plan for the world if we had been subjected to the lights of publicity during those years."

You're right. Anti-semites still lying here and continuing with false propoganda. When exactly was the USSR a Jewish-led haven? Lenin? not a jew. Stalin? not a jew. Khurschev? Not a jew. Brezhnev? not a jew.
Then again, just spin it as the jew's fault. Got it!!!!!!!!!
Viva I hate jews/Israel propoganda!!!! Lie Lie Lie!!!!!!!!
Lenin = Blank was a Jew
Trotsky = Bronstein was a Jew
Yakov Sverdlov was a Jew and the First President of the Soviet Republic.
Zinoviev = Ovsei-Gershon Aronovich Apfelbaum was a Jew and best remembered as the longtime head of the Communist International.
Kamenev = Rozenfeld was a Jew and Bolshevik revolutionary and a prominent Soviet politician. He was briefly head of state of the new republic in 1917, and from 1923-24 the acting Premier in the last year of Lenin's life.
All four first chiefs of Soviet secret police (Cheka, OGPU, NKVD) were Jews.
11 out of 13 GULAG extermination camps commandants were Jews.
The entire Lenin's government members was Jews except for Stalin who was Georgian.
Indeed, Khrushchev and Brezhnev were not Jews. They came to power well after Stalin liquidated almost all Bolsheviks in 1930s during his Great Purges.
Their unplugging incubators also. Oohh the humanity!!
Better this than an actual closure of the Strait.
"Drone Blowback."
Soon everyone will have a drone AND an IPad. Is the drone manufacturer listed on the NYSE?
I stood in line outside Wallmart all night just so I could get mine. My son MUST have one.
Actually, its only a matter of time before government drone love kills the airbourne, RC hobbyist industry.

Damn, I have a big one dissassembled in the shop, a buddy gave it to me...
The government has almost killed off railfans (trainspotting to y'all in England). Just try to take a picture of a train in the NY area... or in the subway.
Actually it's interesting, most of the regulations pointed at hobby drones are aimed at slowing down automated drones, basically requiring they be within view at all times, limiting traveling range, and requiring manual overrides.
The hobby side is developed enough that there's been successful intercontinental automated flights over the atlantic.

So a cargo ship and a pack of drones becomes the poor man's aircraft carrier.
What are the odds of some bright individuals here in the US hacking into a drone??
That could be interesting....

What you don't see in the foto is the cargo plane loaded with rubber dogshit overhead...
Photo doesn't show a big billboard on the side of the carrier that says "YOUR LAST WARNING: RETURN TO USE OF THE DOLLAR FOR OIL OR ELSE !"
no... instead, all those crew members lined up on the port side are holding a banner that says "MISSION ACCOMPLISHED"
I thought they were 'mooning'...
What a showdown, who would have thunk it would be the Rupee vs. Bernankbucks.

And we can't see theirs, either: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kilo_class_submarine
They have at least three Kilos, and have something around 16 Ghadirs (domestically built light submarine.)
Not a huge offensive capability, but enough to be a problem. It is unlikely that Iran will be as easy as Iraq or A-stan, and neither of thoe were particularly easy based on the current outcomes.
BFD, no news here, Iran won't do squat, move along...
They don't need to do squat... it just needs to look like they did squat.
Sorry, forgot my paranoid pill this morning, silly me!
It's not paranoia, it's reality. If we want war with Iran, we'll get war with Iran. And when we do get war with Iran, it will look like "they started it". Itchy trigger finger or a lack there of is irrelevant.

Obama is a neocon? What are you smoking?
The same people run our government no matter who resides in the white house. Obama ia beholden to the same people as was Bush. The charade that says otherwise is meant to keep people in the dark. Works like a charm.
A bit depressing. 2012 and there are still masses of people buying tickets to the two party dog and pony show.
We are truly fucked when even some folks who read ZH haven't figured it out yet.
Engage in Critical Thinking!! Stop watching and listening to MSM (CNN, Fox, Limbaugh, Levin, etc.)!!
Jounalism on television/radio is dead. It's propaganda owned by the corporations.
Wake the fuck up people!! It's two minutes to midnight!!
smart commentary in this wee corner of the thread. . .
I too have been surprised that ZH has a majority of posters choosing "sides" and lining up to participate in the voting narrative - but as I continue to read, I've come to realise that for many here, the world revolves around "the market" and the stockpiling of "riches" - or simply the gambling ADDiction - and paying attention to a global chess game being played out over centuries without choosing a side as personal perspective is not really seen as necessary.
this may be because amrka is their birth place, and there is heavy identification with this idea - because the story they've memorised and livesd since birth is "we're #1!!!!" - so habit says this is fate, to identify oneself as owned by a fiction that nationstates are, and many are prepared to go down with the(ir) ship. . .
There is nothing more frustrating than listening to my friends with college degrees recycle nonsense they see/hear in MSM. People that display brilliance in their chosen field fail miserably when it comes to analyzing current events and understanding history. They decry the "Socialist Libs" or the "Greedy Repubs" and continue the charade that is our two party system.
I try to break through the wall of conditioning, but normalcy bias is very strong in many.
Even when I provide facts and references, they fail to see the big picture.
ZH is my oasis in the desert of ignorance.
To the MSM/American Idol followers that post on ZH, quit peeing in the spring you fucks!
hahah on the "quit peeing in the spring you fucks!" - it's a good larf, but in all honesty, even some of the "older" posters here are incontinent. . .
and with regards your well-educated friends, it is my experience that "college" merely trains one in a way to be employed - sometimes "self" but mostly by an other entity, as an "employee" - this just means their education is in how to be a worker in their chosen field - so it's more insertion of information than critical thinking. . .
once upon a time, an education taught one how to think, now it's how to get a paycheck (or not, as most are learning too).
best wishes.

You don't expect multinational companies to protect their own assets do you? /sarc
Are you talking about blowback on Iran for their comments about wiping Israel off the face of the earth?
"We will remove the nation of Israel from the pages of history"
Was the actual quote .................
So what's going on in Syria today? Another example of the hypocritical US Gov't. "Oh, another 50 people were killed today, it's the worse thing that's ever happened!!!" Nevermind the US killed over 100,000 in Iraq. That's different.
Using Saddam's attacks on his own people while we enabled him would have been a more apt comparison.
Any negative comments about our Dear Leader will be noted.

That's almost bullish!
it's a much better indicator of impending action when the carriers leave the Gulf, than when they enter. US carriers will not operate in a constrained space when it's likely to be contested.
I amazed at how silent the Sauds are in all of this. Other than saying " we will pump more oil"( which we don't have). They have been pretty quiet.
No different than the microcosm of family life: When the kids are too quiet, you KNOW they are up to trouble!
read a Reuters article stating Shite areas of SA are starting to heat up. Of course the Shites live predominately in the oil producing regions so there's no need to block the Strait when you can blow up the worlds excuss capacity.
Iran also had it's submarine in the area, keeping an eye on things. Here's the photograph:

What do you know about the "incident" in the Tonkin Gulf?
Still looking for the wreckage. Can we get back to you?
LOL, now where did Iran get a drone?
What the picture doesn't show is 100 Iranian smart mines sitting on the bottom of the straits under the keel of the carrier.
The gooberment will be as successful at containing drone technology as they were with the crossbow and gunpowder.

"For example: The ArduPlane. A conversion kit that, in the language of the promotion, can:
"Convert any RC airplane into a fully-autonomous UAV!
"Or the ArduCopter, ArduRover...
"For all of that, one of the coolest projects he's helping along is the ArduPilotMega.
"What is it? It's a fully functional Universal DronePilot. It has a triple core autopilot. A complete motion sensor package that includes precision pressure, GPS, magnetometer, etc. 2 way telemetry. Mission planning system. Flash data storage. And best of all for you scriptkiddies out there: it will soon include Python for acrobatic/maneuver programming."
For what it's worth, some Army reservists in my area are being called up into active duty. Where there's smoke, there's fire, though I doubt that an Iranian R/C helicopter aka "drone" will play much of a role in the action.
The Iran/ME/Levantine mess has got me to thinking-- how about 'we' (royal, fantasy 'we') invite the Turks to re-establish the Ottoman Empire? They seemed to do a good job of running the show, until the Brits tore it asunder after WWI. It was ponderous and inefficient, but there was plenty of peace to be enjoyed.... my other out-of-the-box idea is for the oil-importing countries to buy 1/2 of the Sinai peninsula from Egypt, and set up a "New Palestine", complete with Med-view high rise apartments, solar energy farms, and irrigation-based agriculture, a fresh start for the Palestinian Arabs sans bulldozers and checkpoints. We need some Toffler-esque thinking over there, fewer wars and massacres... good luck with that, right?
I believe that my fellow Armenian would challenge your view that in the Ottoman Empire, "there was plenty of peace to be enjoyed." The Millions that were slaughtered, raped and put into camps would not think that the Ottomans were so nice. They did not seem to like christians. The Greeks, I would also believe, will concur.

Anything "Toffler-esque" is, at its core, pure evil! Can you say "Agenda 21"?
I hadn't known that Toffler was involved in that, pardon my ignorance. I know his book, "Future Shock," which certainly seems to describe/forsehadow our times well. Man, you can't even refer to a flying-car futurist without stumbling across some moonbat UN regimentation program-- that he somehow designed. That's why I come here, as opposed talking about this stuff at the bar....
Toffler and Gingrich teaming up:
"Gingrich has not been shy about presenting his "Third Wave" Plan. He flatly states that his goal is to end the old America forever. Insiders Alvin and Heidi Toffler enlisted the endorsement of Gingrich and the three set forth this plan in the Tofflers’ sinister Illuminist volume, Creating a New Civilization. Gingrich actually wrote the foreword for this ungodly, anti-American book. Here are just a few of Third Wave principles espoused in the book by the Tofflers and Gingrich":
http://www.texemarrs.com/choice_for_2012.htm
Good grief!!! Well, I guess the real seer into the future was P. K. Dick.... ugh. Gingrich, don't get me started on him. Consider the Toffler reference deleted, if I could do it.
based on certain soundbites burped from the craw of GingerItch, I've concluded that he's the globalist's foghorn - he's getting media attention because he's got words he needs to seed the sponge-minds of peoples who can't critical think, but are instead thought by the words they absorb. . .
if you listen to him, you'll hear a prequel of the coming agenda, almost prophetic - the words are ideas, and a wishlist, of those who believe they have control of futures. . . maybe they do, who knows - but I'm betting on some wild cards in the coming 6 weeks.

Carriers are incredibly useful. At full-out speed they can create a 15 foot tail wave that you can ride on your wakeboard for hours.
Read something interesting today that is applicable to all of this THEATRE:
The Play
All of humanity, God’s friends and foes alike, act within a carefully orchestrated script written by the earthly playwright named Lucis. The play is the pinnacle of literary device, employing many elements of a good Shakesperian plot: love, hate, violence, deception, evil, betrayal, and ultimate surprise.
We are all actors who do not know the final act, or the sub-plots woven by the writer. Only one scene’s script is doled out at a time, producing for even the actor confusion and wondering as to the role of his fellow thespians.
Imagine, while playing his part in every unfolding scene, the actor realizes he has not the foggiest idea as to who will finally be revealed as the villain. The plot twists serve to confuse and distort the ultimate agenda and the final act. As the actor is intimately involved in playing his own part, his emotions and actions are highly controlled by the script and the director. At some point, he becomes his character. And in this melding of reality and fiction he abandons the need to understand the plot for the sake of wholehearted character immersion. Instinctively, he even suspects that actually knowing the final outcome could prove to be counterproductive to his authentic performance.
But the actor is also the audience. In the course of the play, he grows to revere or revile certain other characters. His actual emotions are invested. For a short time, he even perceives the theatre as reality. And all the while, the director sits in cool detachment, marveling at his own skill of creating surprise, tragedy, and emotional investment of the audience. He silently analyzes how a scene might be tweaked, how the set might be reoriented, to illicit maximum credence and engagement. His goal is to build false and leading narratives in order to create the element of surprise in the shocking final act, when all true motives, character, and plots are finally revealed. The audience gasps in amazement that they have been fooled the whole time. Their only knowledge of the true plot comes after its ultimate revelation, and they chide themselves for not being able to discern the true nature of the characters. Then, and only then, are they able to see the thread of evil genius, the art of deception, and the convolution of their minds. They instruct themselves to be more clever and attentive next time.
The curtain closes, and everyone goes home to reality…..
Or do they?
no attribution for your "Play" but numerous authors have used the metaphor to describe what they've observed.
the clue is indeed to observe, to choose not to believe the "play" or the "characters" - but to watch it unfold - and if you're fortunate enough to have a mind that empathises, use it for both "sides" in the story - identify briefly with all characters, but not "sides" - individuals only. as for
whose reality?
I could have told you nothing would happen to the Lincoln. It's the
scheduled to be decommissioned "in a process that will cost a lot of money
just like it would of cost a lot of money to renovate the world trade
center" Enterprise that has to worry.
Its just a pity that Iran doesn't have a tie-up with GRASP at University of Pennsylvania's syncronised drone team.
That might spook the shock & awesome battle group
search video swarm of nano quadrotors , and see the future
boys with toys.
always with the toys, creating massive destruction of humanity, but it was sooo cool to imagine into existence, ever hopeful that the MIC will anoint you with the monies and attention.
First of all, misleading photo NOT of Iranian "patrol rafts".
Second, Seriously folks? Why does this site promote so much the ability to think outside and through the deception vortex and than, with articles like this, repromote it?
At this point, a conflict in the strait is not likely to result from a deliberate initiation by either side. Instead, the primary risk is a skirmish or incident that escalates following a misunderstanding or miscalculation.

I won't Appologise in advance, so I'm going to say it. What makes you really think were Allied with Israel to begin with? Because we pay them 7 million dollars a day? I don't think so, Obama Administration placed them on the Terrorist State list and don't tell me it was a mistake, there were hearings and plenty of documentation backing up that decision. Their still listed to this day.
2nd. Israel knows where the preverbial "bodies are burried" they have us by the shorts and they know it. And yes, they will turn on us if we do not lock step to their agenda as described in the post above mine.
3rd. USA is a puppet for Israel and have been.
I personally have nothing against the Israel Nation, I believe their wonderful people and can cook their asses off to boot. Their leadership leaves alot to be desired in respect to the states "means to an end".
Don't get it twisted and don't get it fucked up.. Israel is down for their Nation when the chips are down.

thanks for your posts, they're illustrative of the current ramping up of the story - and the pushing by "sides" to choose an "either/or, with us or against us" - the collective noose tightens. . .
ever wonder why nationstates, which only exist in the minds of those entrained to think that way, gender female?
is it because, for most men, "she" is either possessed by you - MY woman - and defended, or possessed by anOTHER, and raped in revenge? but mostly, the female, gendered, is to be fucked?
"hobbled" by a "lack of understanding" the set minds of those who identify with their abusers. interesting.
"ever wonder why nationstates, which only exist in the minds of those entrained to think that way, gender female?"
ships and oceans are gendered female as well...and then there was Jim Morrison who gendered a city female in LA Woman(Wilson Smith writer).
http://youtu.be/Lw1IwfCaKOE
Did he think he was fucking Los Angeles?
...but no I never really wondered why.
no, I'm sure you haven't. it's like breathing air, isn't it. natural.
like Mother Nature.
with regards Jim, p'haps all things gendered female are also perceived as nature-ally uncontrol-able, debased, filthy, whore-ish. . . like the whole religious Madonna(pure)whore(debased by man)thang.
Jim wasn't fucking L.A. but he knew it was fucked, by someone.
"like Mother Nature"
or like Sophia debased by patriarchal, monotheistic religions.
on second thought maybe I have wondered why...as I was reading this: http://www.metahistory.org/READING/NIHI.php
from cover to cover, the first and especially the second time.
sounds interesting, I've read similar in the past, as how the mind is shaped by "culture" is very interesting to me.
the "transition from Pagan to Christian" - yes, huge story there, with many opinions, well worth researching. . . I wonder, do you read female authors? most males don't, but once I realised I was thoughtlessly choosing male authors over females (decades ago this was), I became more aware of my choice of authors, and perspectives.
Riane Eisler has written a few really interesting books, The Chalice and the Blade is one, Sacred Pleasure another. I also really like the late Leonard Shlain - all of his books are wonderful reads, I like The Alphabet vs. The Goddess, and recommend it often, but really, each of his books are worth your time.
