I am not sure this came from the Irainian government. Sounds like these threats were well thought out trying to push all our buttons. However, I do not doubt Iran has sleeper cells in the US. and they are just waiting for the word to strike, this particular threat ought to be at the top of the intel hit lists.

have announced their complete preparedness for a possible military attack on Iran’s nuclear installations

Big talk.

They're scared.

Good.

The reason not to take this article seriously as a military matter is that Saddam Hussein made the same sort of boasts, and so did Mullah Omar in Afghanistan. Both made claims like this just before their militaries collapsed like a house of cards when competently attacked.

The only difference between Iraq and Iran is this: If we need to attack Iran, we will insist that any Iranian units who surrender shall remain in place and stack their weapons, rather than have any chance to go home with their weapons. If they don't like that alternative, they are welcome to die in place == their choice.

Stand off and nuke them from orbit, it's the only way to be sure.

Great, so either take them out now or wait til they have nukes and are blackmailing the whole of Europe and the Middle east, not to mention directly the U.S.A.
I still feel pain from them holding us hostage for 444 days during the weasel wimp carters prdsidency. I'd have no problem knocking the stuffing out of the bastards.
Oh yeah, these punks released the American hostages the moment a real man took office, President Reagen.

The United States of America is the single nation on Earth who has demonstrated the political will to detonate tactical nuclear weapons upon a declared enemy.

And the government in power at the time, were Leftists.

I really believe that this is true. There is SO MUCH going on behind the scenes. Neither the U.S. nor Israel are sitting around biting our fingernails when we're not sitting on our hands. A lot is being done, and probably a lot more is being said directly to these barking dogs in Tehran, which make it clear to them (à la Condi) exactly what our reaction will be in the event that they choose an unwise path.

Personally, I think that Condi talks more softly and carries a bigger stick than Colin Powell did, during his tenure at State. She's awesome..........and I'd still love to see her face off against the one who plans to become The Empress of the Once and Future Planet. Condi would win in a walk-away.

Three ethnic provinces in Iran had simultaneous riots and uprising which the Iranian government had to send in IRG police units because the local police response was restraint. CIA and NSA is testing the coordination of all dissident groups in Iran. Each uprising increases the confidence and intensity of the rebel groups. Keep your ears to the ground freepers. The US will not attack Iran because it will trigger nationalism and strengthen the mullahs. Peace and dissent will be our weapon to destroy the Islamic Republic of Iran. These riots will get more intense and widespread. The more force the Iranians apply the more rebels will join the rioters. The US had learned well from the Soviets and Chinese during the Cold War. In the end the Iranian forces will discover that their guns are facing the wrong direction and nukes cannot be used for riot control, especially in the streets of the capital.
