"Where is the horse and the rider? Where is the horn that was blowing? They have passed like rain on the mountain, like a wind in the meadow; The days have gone down in the West behind the hills into shadow."

That was first thought. He used to grin a lot at first, until he became frantic.

Geez...they couldn't defeat Iraq after ten years....reduced themselves to sending small children into minefields to clear them....

We defeated Saddam's entire military in 100 hours.....

Yawn....if an Iranian General speaks...does anyone really listen???? They're just a bunch of Persian Pansies....

What if we turned Iran into a ceramic bowl? Would it be us that finished it, General?

Interesting game of Chicken they are playing.
Either he is very stupid, or Iran has available to them weapons we are not aware of - yet. The third option is that he underestimates the US and is betting the entire farm that we won't do anything.
I doubt seriously if they are that stupid.

Even in back in high school, it was wise not to underestimate the little loud mouth pip-squeak; sometimes he was just a stupid loud mouth, sometimes he knew something you didn't know he knew.
I do hope we do our homework very well.

Cordially,
GE

Or perhaps doesn't care what we do as long as they get to trigger their end days and earn their ticket to their virgins in paradise.

If they ever grow the cajones to attack us, we'll show them our fury, just like we showed the world with Japan.

And then there is that...
I have a good friend from Lebanon. His take on the whole Middle East situation has always been that the original target was Iran and Syria, and that we had to get a way into it.

"I would advise them to first get out of their quagmire in Iraq before getting into an even bigger one,"

Where have I heard that before? Sounds like he got the demorats talking points.

They remind me of the Black Knight character in the film Monty Python and the Holy Grail.

Arthur: You're a crazy person.
Black Knight: The Black Knight always wins! Let's fight! Come on then.
Arthur cuts off the Black Knight's other leg.

"You can start a war but it won't be you who finishes it,"

This nut believes that bearding the US into attacking Iran will bring the final battle and the Caliphate (Muslim Domination of the World) He seems to think Allah is a nut too.

The general population of Iran is basically moderate. Getting rid of the Jihadists and the corrupt religious leaders of the country has to be a priority of the whole world. That might be said of a number of Arabic countrys dominated by the nutcase religious leaders.

That advice might by passed on the our own so-called religious leaders who have a following of protestant fanatics.
