Iran: the Strait of Hormuz Incident from the Point of View of Iran

Here's a video from Press TV (uploaded into Politube), which shows the same incident that Washington is using for its "Gulf of Tonkin"-style war propaganda from Iran's point of view: "Iran: Strait of Hormuz Incident from the Point of View of Iran."


Richard Holt of the Telegraph reports on this Press TV video: "Iranian Video 'Shows No Threat to US Navy'" (10 January 2008).

The video debunks the much-hyped Pentagon hoax about the incident, as Daniel M. Pourkesali points out: "Straight Facts about the Persian Gulf 'Incident'" (MRZine, 10 January 2008).

Update

Check out an excellent Steve Bell cartoon on the incident: "USS Lastgasp Lameduck: 'Cry "Harassment" and Let Slip the Ducks of War'" (Guardian, 8 January 2008). I hope that's all there is to it.
