Something with this story smells fishy. First we have Debka and now another Israeli news outlet leaking an uncited, yes uncited story. . Why can I not find the original story from the Iranian news agency. It almost seems like this story was "seeded."
Methinks we may have stumbled into and are unknowingly participating in an Israeli PsyOp campaign. The purpose of which is to place pressure on and evaluate the defenses of the Iranian defensive forces.
The following days will tell, but I am placing bets that we will see no war in the following weeks. For one thing General Patreaus would not have been reassigned to Afghanistan from Iraq if something were about to blow next door to Iraq. .
It makes no sense. Mark my words, we are being used to disseminate disinformation.

The thing that is surprising to me is the kingdom of Saudi Arabia having anything to do with a Jew. Jews are not allowed in Saudi Arabia unfortunately. So how can this be? New policy or something?

As I mentioned above, I believe Saudi Arabia will use whoever they need to use to get to the point where they have what they want, in this case Iran out of the way and under their (via U.S. proxy) control. The Middle Easterners are patient people. And clever.

In my view, just to make it clear, IT IS INSANE the amount of money being poured over there right now. If we have a choice fighting fanatics over there or over here, I pick here.
We should leave immediately, and deal(business) with whoever is left in charge. If they want to treat their population like dogs, so be it. If we don't agree, maybe we don't do business with you. But not drop bombs! Its insane, life is too precious.
All that money, in my opinion, should go to EDUCATION> We have squandered TOO many resources, too many lives for these games of the rich. Pull back and make America better, not some slum in the M.E.
Just wanted to add, most countries have their own best interest in mind. Using another country to further your interest is ageless, and most countries are guilty of it.
The enemy of my enemy......you know the rest.

The Saudi public hate the puppets in charge and could snap at any second from what i have been told and no this was not from the zionist controlled news networks but from someone what worked in Saudi Arabia.

The U.S. has been saying that Iran is building a nuke since the 80s. Where's the nuke? And hell, if anyone really needs one (which I don't believe anyone does), it might just be Iran. They're the ones in the crosshairs, targeted for the same treatment Afghanistan and Iraq have gotten in the past decade.

Forgive me for not being clued up but what would Iran likely do in the event of an attack involving the USA - how would they retaliate and with what kind of weapons ? America is a long way from them , would they attempt air strikes on US soil ?

The boats are mainly intended for anti-shipping and anti-submarine operations in relatively shallow waters.
Armament
* Air defence: 8 SA-N-8 Gremlin or SA-N-10 Gimlet[16] Surface-to-air missiles (export submarines may not be equipped with air defense weapons)
* Six 533 mm torpedo tubes with 18 53-65 ASuW or TEST 71/76 ASW torpedoes or VA-111 Shkval supercavitating "underwater missiles", or 24 DM-1 mines,
