Meanwhile, back in North Korea.
No need to spend any of that $150B we gave you in the name of securing peace and nukes, Iran. The current administration would just wave a white flag and surrender and invite you in.
They won’t be so bold when we have an AMERICAN President.
Iran lacks the ability to project for a shooting war with America.
the best they can do is to increase their current terrorist efforts.
loss of all their ports should bring them to the real bargaining table
“Will they still spout this crap after the sissy in chief is gone? Obama makes Jimmy carter look like George Patton.
Meanwhile, back in North Korea.
“
If I recall, they still spouted even when Ronald Reagan was president. The critical difference was they didn’t do anything while RR was president. (Not after he bombed them once.) What Obama has done is make it impossible for a future president to respond with a measured and limited strike. You can’t slap the face of a nuclear power. So a future president only has the choice of taking their cr*p or killing millions. Obama is betting all future presidents must bow and scrape. His legacy will be much worse than Carter’s as eventually, millions will die as the result of his policies. Bush will be blamed.
Famous last words...there’s probably millions of Iranians who would love nothing more than to seek revenge against the ayatollahs.
A simple blocking of their ports will do. No need to shoot.
A simple blocking of their ports will do. No need to shoot. Mine the harbors and leave.
I’ll think on that but at least one should be destroyed as an example
But Barry said it would all be peace, love and Soul Train with Iran now. That’s what “the deal” was all about, right Barry?
But, I'd bet they could muck up the Straits of Hormuz. I wouldn't want to be stuck on a US ship there if hostilities broke out. Somebody (Russia, CHina) might sell them a lot of advanced anti-ship missiles.
In April 2003, the Iranians were in deep lock down. They did not have a single military radar turned on, they were not flying any military aircraft. (I know this from more or less first hand information.) The *last* thing they wanted was a military conflict with the U.S., which they knew included a long overdue supersize shipment of whuppass.
Circumstances have changed.
Didn’t Hitler say something like that?
Under the current U.S. administration, I wouldn’t fear a war with the United States, either.
Maybe, but how I would love to see Donald Trump, Bibi Netanyahu, King Abdullah (I don’t know his first name), General al-Sisi (or his, either), & Vladimir Putin- acting in concert, turned loose on these (pardon me) sh!theads.
They have it coming.
when they muck up the straights Bandar Shapur (khomini) is gone
The Saudi’s et al will take it out
The beauty of fracking is that the Straits of Hormuz is no longer a sensitive area. We can get our own oil now.
Although the Al Qods (shock troops for the Supreme Leader) and Hezbollah performed poorly in Syria, Russia remains an ally. Is there anyone here that believes Russia would not sell Iran S400 systems for the right price?
Is there any one here who thinks the US has a deployed working counter to the S400?
If not, then there is no attack on Iran by the US - whose mil offense is predicated on air supremacy - once those systems are purchased and deployed in Iran.
And yes they will continue to “spout” ... their objective is war, which they declared in 1979 and we ignored. The more dead the better, the Iranian leadership believes ... it is the 12ver way and their religion.
We should have got some of our own damn oil elsewhere.
...AND the loss of their refining capability would be fun, also.
