Iran's so called navy, harasses US helicopter in international airspace with laser light

An Iranian Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps naval ship [aka boat] harassed a U.S. AH-1Z Viper attack Marine helicopter flying in international airspace over the Arabian Gulf on Wednesday, the US Navy reported. It was performing routine operations at the time, Central Command spokesman Commander Rick Chernitzer said.

"This unsafe, unprofessional, and irresponsible behavior by the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps Navy risks U.S. and partner nation lives and needs to cease immediately," Chernitzer told the outlet in a statement and a wag of his finger.

The interaction took place at about 7:30 p.m. local time.  There were no damages or injuries reported and the US did not retaliate because we don't want any trouble and all of our current military leaders just want us all to get along and accept us for who we are and how we identify.

The aircraft is attached to Marine Medium Tiltrotor Squadron 162 (Reinforced), deployed aboard the Wasp-class amphibious assault ship USS Bataan (LHD 5), on a scheduled deployment to the Middle East Region. Fortunately, no sailors nor Marines were taken prisoner, blindfolded and made to offer apologies to Iran this time.

"These are not the actions of a professional maritime force," Chernitzer said. "U.S. naval forces remain vigilant and will continue to fly, sail and operate anywhere international law allows while promoting regional maritime security."

The situation comes one day after the IRGC claimed to have launched an imaging satellite into space they obviously plan to use to destroy us and Israel with a nuclear strike, but for now, everything looks fine.

Five years ago, former President Trump withdrew the U.S. from the nuclear deal of 2015 because Trump said that it didn't go far enough, and he restored harsh sanctions on Iran.

Now with President Biden acting as president, his handler[s] want to re-enter into a deal with the number one sponsor of global terrorism as nothing has been learned from the allegory of the scorpion and the frog, with Iran being the scorpion.

Last week, Iran's President Ebrahim Raisi said that relations with the U.S. can only move forward and return to the nuclear deal if the Biden administration kisses their collective butt and ease sanctions.

Raisi had arrived in New York to attend the United Nations General Assembly as Iran and the U.S. each freed five prisoners who were in custody for years, with us freeing terrorists, and Iran freeing vacationers. The U.S. also released almost $6,000,000,000 in frozen Iranian assets in South Korea for "humanitarian" use [or possible extinction].

Iran has denied seeking nuclear weapons and the scorpion denied that it was going to sting the frog.
