Iranian Commander warns US about stopping his ship.

Tehran (AFP) - A senior Iranian commander warned the United States that a "fire might start" over an aid ship bound for Yemen on Wednesday after the Pentagon urged it to change course.

Brigadier General Masoud Jazayeri said it was Iran's right to deliver relief supplies to Yemen as a humanitarian ceasefire takes hold and rejected Washington's request that aid be taken instead to a United Nations hub to allay worries the cargo might be military.
"I should say frankly that Iran's restraint has a limit," Jazayeri, a deputy chief of staff, told Iran's Arab-language Al-Alam television late on Tuesday.
"Saudi Arabia and its novice rulers and the Americans and others should know if they continue to create obstacles on Iran's aid delivery a fire might start that would definitely be out of their control.

"My strict recommendation is that they let Iran and other countries deliver their humanitarian aid to Yemen."
Ok.  Consider me a knuckle dragging Neanderthal but that Iranian bastard just called us out.  Time to finish our beer and head out back to meet him.  

But seriously.  The US Navy ended its escort mission because the Iranian Navy continued to take ships "under control" and inspect them at their ports.  No negotiation can be conducted with these people.

We must act if for no other reason than to show the region that we are not to be trifled with.
