Iran warns U.S. to keep aircraft carrier out of Gulf

U.S. Aircraft Carrier

Iran warned the United States Tuesday not to return a U.S. aircraft carrier "to the Persian Gulf region." U.S. officials rejected the "warning" and another recent threat from Tehran that it could close the Strait of Hormuz. The White House and U.S. State Department called the latest threats signs that sanctions against Iran, the result of a standoff over its nuclear activities, are working.

Senh: It seems like Iran's always making empty threats towards U.S. and the rest of world who are against its nuclear ambitions. None of it is ever acted upon though - at least within the last couple of years. I guess it's good that there's no action in their end.
