So Russia (who isn’t any of us) accidentally bombed Iran (which we had nothing to do with) and Iran is objecting to that from Russia and threatening a proxy war on them or what?

Did those bombs (which the USA and Israel had nothing to do with) happen to land on Nuclear facilities? :-)

As Ivan said to Ivan aboard the ship:

“Apparently Iran not flat like our side of Caspian.”

Could we accommodate them with air delivery?

“They can “miss” and hit Israel, too.”

They can “miss” and hit anything they please. Only the people involved know what order was actually given. They have a great opportunity to take out a few targets on their “B-List” without any international consequences. All they have to do is say “Ooops! My bad!”, then go about their business, while the world blames it on bad Russian technology. Meanwhile the command center personnel are snickering their butts off.

The Russians are a crafty bunch, and their military is not constrained by nonsensical ROEs like most of the west. They aren’t using rubber bullets and waving rainbow flags. Besides, who’s to stop them? Obama?

Hmmm, makes me wonder. There is an article on Lion and Lamb Ministries website that talks about the "Prophesy of Elam." Basically, an area within the borders of Iran will become inhabitable for a time. The article

The Prophesy of Elam

talks about the Bushehr Nuclear reactor either being attacked by a hostile military force or destroyed by an earthquake, thereby rendering the area unlivable for years.

The area where the missiles came down, according to Daily Mail Online,

At least four Russian cruise missiles heading for Syria crash landed in IRAN, say U.S. officials

was just north of the area of land formerly occupied by the nation of Elam.

Kind of makes you wonder.......

I don’t know how accurate our Cruise missiles are, but I do know we have failures, some at the point of launch. Duds. Under 0bamba I would expect most of our missiles to be failures.

That’s key.. “Inhabitable”. All Israel needs to do is make Iran’s nuke sites inhabitable with dirty bombs, neutron bombs or something similar. No property damage required!

The Obama Maladministration can’t find its a** with both hands and we’re supposed to believe they know where Russian cruise missiles landed?

“The report is consistent with Iranian media accounts of an explosion in northwestern Iran. The Islamic Republic Press Agency, an official Iranian government press outlet, reported on Thursday that the governor of Takab said an “unidentified flying object” near the town crashed and then exploded. The article contained a photo of a drone, however, and did not provide details about the origins of the crash and explosion.

Iranian journalists have subsequently tweeted these government reports as evidence that that is where the bombing occurred.

It is not clear if there were any Iranian casualties from the bombing. “

Hate using HuffPo but for those saying this was made up, apparently, there was an explosion around there.
