Khamenei US Frightening Arab Neighbors
Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei criticized the United States' army presence in the Gulf Friday and stated that the US was trying to frighten Iran's Arab neighbors so it could sell them weapons.
Khamenei made the comments after being given a tour of the Iranian destroyer Jamaran, which was launched at a Gulf port Friday. Iranian television, which broadcast the ship's inauguration, said the warship was the state's first domestically built destroyer and a major technological leap for Iran's naval industries
