Getting more vocal now that the Neo-Soviets are ready to supply this nutbar regime with fuel rods.
Agreed. And since they’ll have deliverable nukes in a matter of months, or at the outside a year, they’ll become more beligerent right up until the moment that they ATTACK their enemies.
Oh — expect them to add one more goody to the three goals mentioned in this article — the Iranians, if they decided to take the initiative and move offensively, would also cut through Kuwait and take Northeast Saudi Arabia — which is where MOST of the Saudi oil fields are, as well as the Saudi Persian gulf ports and offshore rigs. And, they would likely demand the Saudi’s surrender Mecca and Medina — not sure the Saudi’s would do it — but the Iranian Shi’a’s are crazy enough to try and demand it.
If the Iranians are not STOPPED before they gain nukes, they WILL eventually try this — and USE “limited” nuke strikes to gain their objectives.
All the others are but the means for accomplishing the end you describe. That end is also the reason that all the Gulf States and probably Iraq will be involved in the conflict.
That coalition already has the plans to accomplish the mission of destroying Iran.
