The Iranian regime seems to have an endless supply of bad moves and braggadocio.
We saw this past week how the regime claimed to be a superpower like the United States. They claimed they hit a U.S. warship, then released a video that didn’t show any such thing. And in maybe the wildest move of them all, the regime seized a tanker shipping its own oil.

The regime appeared to be at it again when the official account for the Iranian Embassy in Sierra Leone posted a video.
Interesting footage of an Iranian Navy officer taunting Americans while chasing their warship out of the Persian Gulf.
He’s calling them ‘liars’ and ‘old foxes,’ saying, ‘This is Iran, the land of lions and Islam—no place for you hyenas to flex your muscles. Run for your lives!’ pic.twitter.com/5ae1aiUtLx

First, if this guy were spouting off against a U.S. warship, rather than striking the ship, it would just tend to show how weak they were — screaming because he couldn’t hit the ship. They want to act like a dude having a fit in a speedboat is some big attack or chasing the U.S. out?
Be real. Last week, U.S. forces took out a bunch of targets when the regime tried to attack their ships, and the U.S. ships weren’t even hit. They’re not exactly going to be scared by a speedboat that they could take out in a minute.

But check out the Community Note, which just destroys the Iranian claim.
This is a BAYNUNAH class Corvette operated by the UAE Navy. Not a US warship.
This isn’t even a U.S. warship. The Community Note identifies it as a warship from the United Arab Emirates (UAE).
Then, too, that video sure looks a lot like a claim the regime made in 2019 — seven years ago — that wasn’t even accurate at that time. Then, they claimed that they were chasing a British ship.
Funny this same video was posted in 2019 toohttps://t.co/4wUTw2Znza

Yes, and thanks for reminding us that the Iranian regime has a long history of causing trouble in the area.
Oh, and by the way, where are the Iranian regime’s actual navy ships? At the bottom of the Gulf. They’ve been decimated — all they have left are speedboats like this.
Maybe they should just concentrate on putting their surrender together, because at last check, President Donald Trump had rejected their latest proposal and signaled his patience for their delay was at an end.
When all they have left are bad posts on the internet, they don’t have much.
Editor’s Note: For decades, former presidents have been all talk and no action. Now, Donald Trump is eliminating the threat from Iran once and for all.
