LOL!! (literally. I think I woke up the cat in the other room, though.)

[PAR35]

Think I’ll hit abuse on breaking news from Debka. Even if it’s true, you can’t believe it if it comes from there.

[St_Thomas_Aquinas]

Witnesses report heavy Revolutionary Guards and Basij forces speeding to the area.

How long has this revolution been going on? It's like the mullahs think they're commies.

چه اتفاقی افتاده؟

[InMemoriam]

Zero confirmation on Twitter. During the unrest in Teheran, there was a torrent of Twitter activity, day after day.

This didn’t happen.

[CivilWarBrewing]

Wow. Catastrophic.. Gas line accident or bomb? Where’d ya pick that photo up from? A tall, heavily occupied building says it was a bomb. Payback for Iran’s involvement in pushing ISIS back in Iraq or a Yemeni group, maybe?

When someone says, “pull my finger”, don’t.

This didn’t happen.

Even if it didn’t, it made a LOT of people *look*. :)

A diversion from the Israeli attack on nuke sites?

What Israeli attack on nuke sites?

[Forward the Light Brigade]

My bet—its IS—just showing the Mullahs they can hit them and hit them hard. Expect more attacks soon.

[combat_boots]

Ah. Make the Blue Mosque will turn neon green.

[The Cajun]

Who knows, maybe the Saudis dropped their "wallet" on Iran.

Kind of a little payback/warning thing.............Just saying.

[combat_boots]

Get ‘em, guys.

[Baltimore ken]

Uh oh.Jugears and horse face ain’t gonna be happy about this.

Some new natural gas storage facilities being built in city centers

Seems a might bit risky to the population centers to me...

This is Debka, so, probably worth Bupkis. Thanks Dave346 .
