The message is clear, the target is America. Israel is 300 miles away, the old skuds would work just fine. The range improvement is to work towards hitting America, the firing of the missile on the day of the American peace treaty is clearly defining the target and the last imam is supposed to lead the Muslims in the last jihad to kill all the infidels of the earth.

It is chilling alright, we are hoping MAD will constrain a madman, which is pure insanity. Our state department fits the old saying perfectly, "Thinking themselves wise, they become fools..."

What's wrong with this picture? France had Charles Martel, we have W.

Do England, Spain, Austria, Greece, Portugal have any Crusade creds?

(in my best educator voice) If not so, then why?

I agree Modern France has had a rap of late of being a “wimpy” country, but they seem to get it on the Iran thing.

Chucky M stopped them at Tours in the 730’s I believe.

I’m sure Iran dismantled their nuclear weapons program for now. That only takes about 6 months to a year to reconstitute. Of course the enrichment of Uranium, the lengthy process which gives the bomb its kick is still continuing..So Iran is 6-12 months away from having a bomb once they enrich enough Uranium for fuel.

I was thinking Martel was ~1000- A.D.

At any rate, Rome is not showing any true resistance. The Holy Father issues edicts castigating the war from time to time, but doesn't seem to ever address the true, eternal war between Islam and (any religion's) civilization, in any country.
