Iran to conduct joint exercises with Syria?

An Iranian flotilla has arrived in a Syrian port to provide maritime training to the country’s navy, media reports. It’s only the second time Iranian warships have sailed through the Suez Canal into the Mediterranean.

The ships have docked in the Syrian port of Tartus some 220 kilometres from the capital. They are due to take part in a joint training exercise with Syrian navy which was organised last year, the Mehr News Agency reports. Syria is the only country in the region which has an agreement on naval cooperation with Iran.

So this is why the ships went from Iran through the Suez Canal. Oh boy, Iran is playing hardball.

I believe that all government is evil, and that trying to improve it is largely a waste of time.

In obedience there is always fear, and fear darkens the mind.

Hoping that this "civilization" will change is like hoping that a rabid foaming at the mouth wolf will change into a nice doggie. Ain't gonna happen! The best solution is for the rabid wolf to crawl off somewhere and die.

As for me, I harbour not the slightest doubt that the United States is about to commit and lead the world towards the greatest mistake in its history.
