Iran ups Mid-East tensions; threatens to defend Iran

Iran made a fresh move to ratchet up tensions today, implying that they would defend themselves in the event they were attacked by the US.

The Iranian statement is seen as a grave threat by military experts. It comes days after Iran test fire a missile and held "war games" in the Strait of Hormuz.

"Iran is making a very clear threat," says Simon Henderson of the Washington Institute for Near East Policy, a so-called think tank that has never seen an oil-rich middle-east nation that we shouldn't control.

"The people of the towel must submit to manifest destiny or risk the wrath of the masters of the universe. Resistance is futile."
