Tehran has always insisted its nuclear program was strictly for peaceful purposes, a claim Israel and much of the Western world doubt.

“Sabre rattling or a backdoor admission that Iran has nuclear weapons?”

In school we called it “shootin’ their mouth off”.

If Iran could hit Israel’s nuclear sites they would have done so already.

In the Koran it's called taqiyya. Muhammad (pieces be him) said to lie your butt off for the cause of Islam. Some Muslims excel at it.

Gee, I wonder how Trump would respond to this if he were president. It appears Iran is threatening suicide. So jump already.

its part of the process

Israel bombed Iran’s Syrian embassy, so Iran had to respond.

USA moderated the response from both sides, as neither side wants an expanded war (at least not at this time, anyway)

For now, its all over but the required shouting and posturing.

Sure would be nice if Israel had another Stuxnet ready to go.

Dear Mr Prime Minister;

Please mount a camera on a Tomahawk missile and shove it up the ayatollah’s fat backside!!!! The look on his face will be priceless.

May the God of Heaven watch over Israel and These United States. May He unleash His righteous judgement upon the enemies of His chosen people

Does Israel have nuclear power plants for electricity? Do they also have a breeder reactor(s) for reprocessing spent power plant fuel into plutonium for more bombs?

I've got a bridge to sell to anyone who believes that.

And some of those drones and missiles the other day may have had Israeli nuclear sites as their target but were shot down before they got there.

They’re certainly trying to develop a nuke.And I’ll bet they’ve made huge progress in the last 3 years.

Wouldn’t be a shock. They’ve climbed into bed with Russia and North Korea—both nuclear powers. They’ve sent a bunch of weapons to Russia—what do you think Russia paid for them?

I have been saying for a while that Iran will wake up some morning and announce they have a nuke. And we won’t touch them.
