US unable to demine Strait of Hormuz: IRGC cmdr. 19 Jul 2012 An Iranian commander has downplayed the US move to dispatch modern mine sweepers to the Persian Gulf in a bid to prevent the possible closure of the Strait of Hormuz. "Americans talk a lot about different things but in practice they are faced with problems. We have no doubt that the United States can't do anything in the minesweeping sphere," said Deputy Commander of the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) naval forces Mahmoud Fahimi on Wednesday.
