Rice issues stern warning to Iran
http://feeds.bignewsnetwork.com/?sid=316142

U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice has delivered a stern warning to Iran, urging Tehran to cease what she calls "provocations," after Iranian ships confronted the American Navy in the Persian Gulf.

Secretary Rice describes the move as "provocative and dangerous," and says the United States will defend its interests and allies in the region.

She was quoted Tuesday, calling Iran "the single greatest threat to the kind of Middle East the world wants to see."

Secretary Rice and President Bush begin a trip to the Middle East later Tuesday.

6. Key words: "American Navy in the Persian Gulf"..
The location of those ships is to provoke.

14. Yeah, but not in the numbers we have had recently..
..and they are trying to provoke a war with Iran (and everybody knows it)

BTW, "our interests" consist of occupation and theft of resources in the region. Our interests fucking suck!:thumbsdown:
