they have 5 - 100-foot patrol craft ,34 smaller vessels and a naval infantry regiment.
the reason most of us do not know this is because the media don't want us too,,, they will not report on this.....

Yes, the Iraqis were about to load their vast army onto their vast navy and sail unimpeded to our unprotected shores where they would have invaded and occupied the US. We stopped them just in time.

CNN reported on it in Sept 2005 when their patrol boats were delivered...
Helped sink half of it in 1991 off the USS Curts... if only the Penguin system had been operational

Yep, Saddam ordered them from the Chinese, we blocked their delivery, paid for them, then turned them over to the Iraqis after we ousted Saddam and felt they were ready. No big secret.

surely with those figures the term NAVY is rather loosely based..........
But not to worry the US Navy and the UK Navy have those bases covered............IMO the media does not cover it as the average Joe Public is just not interested enough.......the Navy wives and family are of course
