Iran Vows Revenge On US And UK After Attack
Sky News ^
Posted on 10/18/2009 8:59:01 AM PDT by maquiladora
Iran has warned it will take revenge against the US and Britain, accusing them of being involved in a suicide bombing that killed several Revolutionary Guard commanders.
Six senior commanders and dozens of civilians died in the attack.
The headquarters of the armed forces blamed the bombing on "terrorists" backed by "the Great Satan America and its ally Britain", the semi-official Fars News Agency reported.
"Not in the distant future we (Iran) will take revenge."
Earlier, Iranian state television said Sunni rebels carried out the bombing.
It said the militant group Jundallah (Soldiers of God) had claimed responsibility for the attack, the deadliest in Iran in recent years.
State media cited sources as saying "Britain was directly involved" - a common tactic used to divert attention away from the countrys internal problems.

I went to school with a Jundallah.

Is it wrong to want to attack Iran just to wipe the smirk off that little weasel’s face?

Iran knows that if it strikes the West, it would be a green light for the West to take it down. Of course with Zero at the helm, that would mostly be an empty exposure to military action wouldn’t it.
Hey Obama, is this more of the international respect we were going to gain with you at the helm?
What’s your excuse for our lagging respect world-wide?
I don’t recall Iran threatening direct military action before you became president. Is this the hope and change you promised?

Before everyone tells Iran to “Bring it on”, I caution you to remember who our “commander-in-chief” is. The jacka$$ would probably surrender.

yes. The IRCG, according to Ken Timmermann, was a threat to the mullahs.

Wait for Obamas apology.Yes, or the blame of Bush and an OJ-esque commitment to get to the bottom of it.

Why would Iran think we had anything to do with it with Barack Hussein Obama at the helm? Unless...the Iranians have orchestrated the attack on themselves so they can blame us, so they can take revenge—confident we won’t do anything. Still, who would believe, under this administration, we would do anything so...provocative.

Can you imagine how bad this threat would be if the power of Barack Hussein Obama’s words had not gotten them to “unclench their fist?”
Shiver.

So why do they think we had anything to do with the bomber?
Actually I already know the answer.
Who was it that said bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb- bomb Iran?

Not that the US and Great Britain don't have a lot of legitimate gripes against Iran, but its citizens have an even more compelling reason to go after its leaders! What a shame Obama doesn't have what it takes to encourage the overthrow of that regime. Although those who take the place of the current ruling thugs might not be a whole lot better it would certainly put a hitch in the git-along of worldwide network of terrorists dependent on Iran.
If it were up to me I would be working day and night to find ways to mess with that regime in hopes of making it easier for their own dissidents to do away with them.
