In fact, recent weeks have made it all too clear that Iran envisions itself as a regional super power.

With the removal of Iraq as a credible enemy, I fear that Iran is a regional super power.

It’s not their power that’s as much as it is their ambitions and their support for terror that matter so much. But without a credible deterrence in the area, they are able to delude themselves into believing their power cannot be checked. If I were an Iranian, I’d be very afraid.

It wouldn't be a superpower if we weren't treating it as one. "Negotiating" with the mouse that roared is one of the stupidest things we have done in a long line of stupid things.

If they have nukes trained at the US - and we know it - or if they have suicide bombers inside the US - and we know it - we should just take them out right now. Things are not going to get better.

We are letting them get more powerful day by day, and I think we are directly responsible for promoting Iran from a 3rd world s***hole to a "superpower."
