Iran warns U.S. against military option
UPI ^ | April 8, 2010

TEHRAN, April 8 (UPI) -- No U.S. soldiers in the region would live to tell about a U.S. military attack on Iranian soil, the chief of staff of the Iranian armed forces said Thursday.

Maj. Gen. Hassan Firouzabadi, the armed forces chief of staff, was quoted in the semiofficial Fars News Agency as saying Thursday that U.S. soldiers would not survive an attack on Iran.

"If the U.S. seriously threatens Iran and takes an action against Iran, none of the U.S. soldiers in the region will return to America alive," he said.

Washington is ramping up the pressure on Iran as it moves forward with a controversial nuclear program. Beyond economic sanctions, Washington, along with its allies in Israel, maintain that all options remain on the table when dealing with Iran.

Different Iranian tribes join military forces during a parade to mark the beginning of the 1980-1988 war between Iran and Iraq on September 22,2009 in Tehran, Iran.

A handout picture made available by Iranian president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad’s official website shows Ahmadinejad as he greets supporters in the city of Oroumieh, in north-western Iran, April 7, 2010. Iran on Wednesday deplored remarks by President Barack Obama on the United States’ new nuclear strategy.

An Iranian soldier salutes in front of a placard of Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei during a military parade on September 22,2009 in Tehran, Iran marking the beginning of the 1980-1988 Iran-Iraq war.

Why would the United States invade Iran anyway?

That won't happen owing to the following reasons:

  1. Zero the globalist elite puppet is in the White Hut pandering to an enemy of Israel.
  2. He wants WWIII to start in the Middle East.
  3. Zero and Ahmadinenutcase wants the State of Israel nuked off the face of the earth (which the Iranians will die trying).
  4. Iran has a role to play in the post-WWIII Russo-Islamic invasion attempt of Israel (read Ezekiel 38 for further details).

Anyway, we would not invade Iran, because it would be a total deviation from our primary goal of preventing Iran from creating a nuke and mating it to their missiles, while not stepping foot on their soil.

This has been a constant rhetorical threat by Iranian Regime since GWB’s administration. Any time the Iranian Regime feels the slightest threat of military action agaisnt them. It is also often, even inadvertently, promoted by those who spread IRI’s so-called fear instilling nonsense.

Saddam’s regime made similar jibes.

Iranian regime & their supporters’ ego have been writing cheques (checks) that their bodies will not be able to cash.

Of course the main reason for them doing so is because the West, many U.S. administrations & MSM have repeatedly let them.

The Iranian comedy channel features Hillary and Obama every night. The Mullahs need a good laugh after a hard day.

Most likely it’s a PKT, a tank-mounted variant of the PKM GPMG (general-purpose machine gun).

Remember the good old days when NOBODY had the balls to “warn” us about anything? I sure do miss Ronald Reagan.

Ronald Reagan was good for a lot of healthy respect. Also, RWR, was to a certain extent, admired by our foes. That's better than respect.
