MAN'S INSANE!!
Despite Ahmadinejad saying recently that he wants to send Iranian marines “to teach Israelis a lesson," it doesn't appear that is happening now, according to Reuters:
Thanks to Israel Matzav for the tip.A senior Iranian official said earlier Iran's elite Revolutionary Guards were ready to provide a military escort to aid ships heading to Gaza if Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei so commands. [ID:nLDE65509B]
But the Guards' deputy head, Hossein Salami, said there were no plans to do so. "Such a thing is not on our agenda,"he was quoted as saying by the official IRNA news agency on Monday.
Any such military mobilisation would risk a major confrontation with Israel, which fears Iran's nuclear enrichment programme is aimed at developing atomic bombs.
The Jewish state regards Iran's nuclear ambitions as a mortal threat. Iran says its nuclear programme is meant solely to yield electricity or isotopes for medicine and agriculture.
