Iran's 'supreme leader' — Khamenei — tells country to brace for war

In the first such order, Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps has directed its more than 300,000 troops to prepare for a confrontation with Israel and the United States. IRGC has directed and participated in the Hizbullah war against Israel. "Iran's powerful Revolutionary Guards and Basij should prepare themselves to get even with Zionists and Americans," IRGC commander Maj. Gen. Yahya Rahim Safavi said. "The supreme leader [Ali Khamenei] will announce the time for this."

"...should prepare themselves to get even with Zionists and Americans.."

Not even bothering to build up false pretenses are they? They're going straight for the "revenge" card. Of course, all of the supposed offeses they are seeking revenge over are looney, but it doesn't matter to them.

The good news is that we don't need another "Hearts and Minds" war. "Shock and Awe" will do.

Iran should know that our politicians in D.C. haven't the testicular fortitude for another war.

Oh great. I suppose we will begin seeing video of parading women in Burka's holding wooden AK-47's on the news now. And the regular parading goose-stepping troops are also good for a laugh.

Thry don't have the balls for the war we're in now, much less with Iran.

They'd better be careful about the whole 'getting even' gig. Israel has a bone to pick for their open support of Hezbollah. We still have a score to settle over the '79 Hostage Crisis.

To be fair, the side of the aisle that hasn't shown the fortitude hasn't actually had to fight a real war one yet. They have spent the last couple of years engaging in a politcal war more than anything else. If Iran attacks the U.S., I think everyone (excluding the ultra peacenick extremists who would rather be dhimmi slaves than ever fight in any war no matter the provocation) will show they have the fortitude to do what needs to be done.

I think they already know this. That is why they are doing this.
