They are in almost all of our convenient stores.

Most of those guys hate the mullahs more then we do, they were the lucky ones to get out.

It is a threat, and one that they can deliver on. We have thousands of American servicemen and women in Iraq that can be made hostages.

Do we still have a presence in Qatar?

If so, I imagine that would be an early target for Iran.

I feel like I need to give a class here on Multiple Independent Reentry Vehicles on ICBMs and SLBMs. Surely the Iranians realize by now that they no longer have a Barack Obama or Jimmy Carter to push around anymore.

Presence? Qatar is the headquarters of the US military in the Middle East!

I think around 11,000 US military, including some real bigwigs.

My expectation is that Qatar would be attacked by shorter-range missiles. I haven’t looked at the distances.

Yes, probably true. Just like Japan ended WWII, by signing the documents of surrender.

It’s like everybody in the media being so worried about North Korean artillery hitting Seoul. Do they think that after 68 years the ROKs and US don’t have counterbattery fire and other ways to suppress the North’s cannons? We surely have plans in place to defend Qatar, Dubai, Jeddah, and other strategic places.

Thanks. I would imagine it would be a primary target because it would direct our response to them in that area.

It would be a suicide mission for Iranians involved.

Coordinated terrorist activities across America could cause far more damage.

Oh, of course. I expect between the various Patriot versions and in case we have THAAD and some possible SMIII-supplied ships in the area.

Still, given that they’re Muslims, suicide boats against naval assets would be something I’d be wary of.

I’m sure they’re looking at all the scenarios.

Yep. As always BLOAT.

That acronym makes me snicker. It probably triggers liberals.

Ask Japan what happened on August 6 1945.

Iran might want to think about spouting off their mouths.

Sure they’ll end it by surrendering.
