I agree with you. It’s not Iran’s technology that makes them a terrible threat, it’s their strategic position and their assymetric positions within other mid east countries that gives them another form of power projection.

When they achieve nuclear weaponry, they will be able to dictate to the rest of the ME and Obama will likely hand over Iraq’s security to them.

Nice hat.

What, when you buy a hat like this I bet you get a free bowl of soup, huh?

They reverse engineer them. Think of all the high tech milling machines that they can buy from the likes of China. Iran has the money to invest in keeping their U.S. supplied airframes flying.
