Second, if the President does what I think he'll do, we will see a massive air campaign. Any Iranians who try to come in after you guys will be tank-plinked straight to Hell.
Trust me, none of us are calling for war lightly. This letter appears to be a declaration of a new phase of jihad, declared by an unstable man with nukes. We cannot afford to take it lightly for any reason, not even to save you brave men and women from making more sacrifices.
the iran leadership is nuts! they already are shelling northern iraq where the PKK operate on this side of the fence.
Turkey is sabre rattling too so they are playing everyone off of each other as they intend to send troops up here as well.

I would beg to differ. There seems to be no shortage of knee-jerk claims to war right now.

So says an American blog. I'm not convinced LGF has a deep enough knowledge of Iranian culture to understand this letter. They're trying to read between the lines, but from a Western mindset that assumes the worst about Islam - which may or may not be true.

No, we can't afford to take it lightly. We have to keep ourselves prepped for the worst case scenario. We should not, however, lurch into war based of half-cocked psychoanalysis of a letter written by an entirely foreign culture. Especially not when our forces are exhausted by two wars already.
