 Iran threatens to close Mediterranean Sea over Gaza war

An Iranian leader threatened on Saturday to close off the Mediterranean Sea in retaliation for the ongoing war in the Gaza Strip, local media outlets said.

Israel and the West “shall soon await the closure of the Mediterranean Sea, [the Strait of] Gibraltar and other waterways,” Brigadier General Mohammad Reza Naqdi of the Iranian Revolutionary Guards warned.

The potential closure would be revenge for the United States and its allies for supporting “crimes” in the Gaza Strip as part of Israel’s retaliatory war in wake of Hamas’ Oct. 7 terror attack, the military commander said.

Iran backs Hamas, as well as Lebanon’s Hezbollah and the Houthi rebels from Yemen, but has no direct access to the Mediterranean itself – making it unclear exactly how the Guards plan to close off the vast sea.

Yeah, that's the ticket.

I think the combined Navies of the dozen or so countries that border the Mediterranean can beat you Iran.

Well, I guess we'll see how good their subs are.

If they send a nuke on one of their missiles, they are done.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
