I have no doubt that Israel and the IDF will continue to enforce the blockade irregardless of what Iran does. However, the only reason Iran has the hubris to assist this shame of a humanitarian flotilla is because the rest of the world has shown themselves to be a bunch of cowardly lions.
When you’re not willing to project unified strength ageist aggression, enemies get bolder and are willing to challenge the world’s resolve time after time.
Do you think Iran would dare do this under George Bush?
Hell no!
Bush would have put his foot up their ass!

If the Supreme Leader issues an order for this then the Revolutionary Guard naval forces will do their best to secure the ships," Shirazi said. "It is Iran's duty to defend the innocent people of Gaza."
Last week, Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad termed the IDF raid on the Gaza-bound Mavi Marmara as "barbaric" and called for dismantling of “the Zionist regime.”
