Iran is targeting 21 US military bases with missiles, says Iranian general
American Military News ^ | DECEMBER 02, 2019 | RYAN MORGAN

An Iranian general says that Iran has 21 U.S. military bases in the sights of its missile launchers, according to a translation by the Middle East Media Research Institute TV monitoring project (MEMRI TV).

Iranian Gen. Allahnoor Noorollahi made his threatening remarks during a speech in the southern Iranian city of Bushehr last week. In his speech, Noorollahi touted Iran as the world’s fourth-leading power in missile technology, behind the U.S., Russia, and China.

“Unfortunately, some Gulf countries have become a military camp for our enemy,” Noorollahi’s translated remarks read. “I must say this: 21 of their bases constitute targets for our missiles.”

Noorollahi claimed NATO estimates Iran’s 110 missile sites could launch as many as 20,000 missiles per day against various U.S. positions throughout the Middle East. “This is what the enemy says,” Noorollahi continued. “They only acknowledge part [of our capability].”

The general alluded to further underground missile sites and “missile ‘cities'” in Iran’s arsenal.

Noorollahi concluded his speech with one final detail he said he was permitted to reveal, that Iran “has prepared itself for the greatest war against the greatest enemy.”

From just over a month ago, posted just as a reminder of how threats and rhetoric from Iran have been commonplace - as we all know. They've been threatening us and Israel ever since their revolution, and acting on their threats through proxies and exported terrorism - but our media and the political left they support are only interested in condemning Trump for defending our nation.

Another general who has failed to read the Art of War. It specifically states that after declaring war against two formidable enemies numerous times, the last thing you want to do is attack additional countries. Looks like they are going out the Saddam route.

I know they have missiles. Which bases?

I figured he might be dumb enough to answer if someone asked.

Does he REALLY think OUR president is not prepared? How much have we spent in the last three years on new model equipment. Double dare him to start something.... agree with Catturd

From Catturd2
People who think President Trump is going to have some long drawn out war with Iran - don’t know nothing about Trump.

If Iran pushes too hard, it’ll be over so fast, it’ll make your head spin.

"Noorollahi claimed NATO estimates Iran’s 110 missile sites could launch as many as 20,000 missiles per day".."“This is what the enemy says"

This would be more convincing if NATO had actually said it. Threats fail when the "facts" to back them up are made up. During the first Gulf War, the U.S. fired 6,000 MLRS rockets in total.

This is the Regime's internal propaganda to prop itself up, and not meant as a real threat to the U.S. Of course Iran is a threat, that is why Soleimani is rather thoroughly dead.

This particular threat, is not so threatening. If a hundred Iran bases started launching thousands of rockets and missiles per day, nuclear weapons would be a rational response.

Oh I see....if you check the map of our bases surrounding the gulf and Iran those missiles will be put down if they're ever set off.

I’m still ticked about the $80 million bounty they put on Trump’s head.

As far as I’m concerned, if Trump wants to take out those 52 targets, he has ample reason to.

>>>”Noorollahi claimed NATO estimates Iran’s 110 missile sites could launch as many as 20,000 missiles per day”..”“This is what the enemy says““

In Surah 5, Ayat 51 (the Shia’s interpretation) it’s lawful to lie in self defense under the threat of death, to believers & nonbelievers!

We could have Iran give up their entire missile program, one at a time, attacking hard targets instead of cities. This works for me.

They crater runways, we demolish refineries. They blow up empty hangars, and we level factories.

Oh I know. It’s just that lying this badly is stupid, even if it is permitted.
