NO - Iran is a fraud. but it has little air-force or navy. It’s economy is in shambles. It run a trade deficit in Petroleum products! There is anecdotal evidence that 10% of Iran women 18-40 are working as prostitutes in the Gulf States to get-by. It has a dysfunctional, unpopular Government. We should have learned long ago that in the Mid-East that the more they talk in blood-curdling tones, the weaker they are.

This is why I maintain we should ignore the nuke plants (just disable the power plants that feed them) and go strait after the mullahs and the Republican Guard.

Make sure that the Iranian people know we are not targeting them or their general infrastructure.

The nuke plants represent billions of dollars of investment but they are not the problem, the government is. If we can take them out the nuke plants will not be a problem. If we fail to bring down the government we can always target the plants at our leisure.

If the insane Islamofacists in control of Iran, really had the firepower to take out Israel and our military bases in Iraq. They would have done it without talking about it!

A while back the Iranians had had upwards of 10 fully laden tankers parked at Bandar e Abbas. Another Freeper noticed it too and thought it might have been an Iranian con-tango, driving up the price of crude. I thought it might have been preparation for blocking the Strait of Hormuz.

You're spot on about the saber rattling fraud that is Iran, but don't put some terrible incident blocking the Strait or causing a horrific oil spill past them. They're not rational.....not the ones who are in power anyways.
