Just a quickie :) I saw the above headline popping up on my screen at work seconds ago. I don't know anything more than the headline but Reuters will issue a news report in several minutes. :o

Iranian warships won't fire anything and I am just about absolutely sure that if they enter any nation's waters, they will retreat because of military action that would decimate their fleet.

You can read the news story here. I'll reply to the role play thing when I'm home in 2-3 hours have got to get back to work :) NAR: There are US carriers in Italy, as well as US Marines and an office of NCIS.

I would be more worried about the whole Israel/Iran problem. Iran might try to go the Gaza Strip, defying the Israeli blockade. Or they could go to Syria, as the article says, in support of the current regime.

WWIII hasn't started yet. I predict that it will start with North Korea invading South Korea again.

Could do. Or a conflict over water in Africa could turn nasty. Or oil in the Middle-East... again.

I'm gonna laugh when someone running against you will put up a bad ad that says " [whatever] played a video game for ten years and has NO political experience." I would get you ad stuff.
