(MUST SEE) Iran Captures US Warship: WW3 2021?

Iran and the US have found themselves at loggerheads after the former claimed to have captured a US warship fleet in a key strategic waterway. IRGC Navy Commander Rear Admiral Sardar Alireza Tangsiri said Iranian drones have tracked a number of US vessels. "Sardar Alireza Tangsiri announced the interception of an American aircraft carrier fleet with IRGC native drones during the annexation of 188 UAVs and helicopters to the IRGC navy and stated: Two destroyers 114 and 104, battleships 58 and 59, two patrol frigates 9 and 12 and a US Coast Guard 1,333 terrorist submarine were identified before entering the Strait of Hormuz and the Persian Gulf," according to the Tasnim news agency.
The US and Iran, although often engaged in ill feeling, have been otherwise engaged in their own national crises, with the coronavirus pandemic having hit both countries tremendously hard.

Iranian President Hassan Rouhani drew attention back to the discrepancies after he used his speech at the United Nations General Assembly on Tuesday to denounce American pressure and send a message of resistance and resilience to the US, signaling no matter the pressure, the Islamic Republic will refuse to budge.

President Trump did not address the statement, focusing his slot on anti-China sentiment.

He warned Tehran earlier this month that should Iran assassinate Lana Marks, the US ambassador to South Africa ‒ as it has suggested ‒ he will order severe military action against Iran; the move would be in retaliation to the American killing of Qassem Soleimani, Iran's former most powerful military commander.

Conflict between the US and Iran has been a risk for years before Trump took the White House, but the incumbent has taken a more aggressive policy stance with Iran than his predecessors, and last year told Rouhani that war would be the "end" of Iran.

It came as tensions soared between the two after two Saudi tankers were sabotaged off the UAE coast, with one ship reportedly containing oil bound for the US.

In a tweet shortly after the incident, Trump wrote: "If Iran wants to fight, that will be the official end of Iran.

"Never threaten the United States again!"
