Iran has been giving the US slaps in the face for the past 8 years. The difference now is that we will finally start punching back again rather than crying and taking it.

Iran is about the size of Alaska.

You slap the wrong person in the face and you better be ready to get to punched in the face for it.

I say we respond to any slap in the face with a solid kick to the nuts followed by a double tap to the head.

Will they do it with a pair of gloves? Will they challenge us to a duel?

Trump probably will not respond the way the old muslim president would have.

The reality is that the Iranians just can’t stand being ignored. Most Americans could not care less what happens to their bizarre, medieval, non sustainable theocracy. Let them stew with the Russians to their North, the Chinese to their East and the Sunnis to their West. If they actually were so stupid to try something nuclear, they would be incinerated and not by the US. Goodbye and good luck fools.

Start with pest control. Take out their annoying fleet of mosquito boats, every last one.

Then an EMP pop over Teheran to deprive the mullahs of their command & control, which will throw Iran into chaos.

Time to dust off the bunker buster MOABs and warm up the engines on the B-2s.

Then get ready to arrest the Obama Admin alums who spent 8 years looking the other way as Iran built up it's sleeper cell network in the US.

Iran keeps rattling the saber but no one is paying attention to them.

It appears that Iran underestimates the US’s offensive capabilities.

They’re following NK’s “look at me” program.
