Iran prepares to start up first nuclear reactor
Obama vacations...
“seize the holy cities of Mecca and Medina in Saudi Arabia.”
For the tourist dollars?
The article is total blather.
If Al-Qaida goes to war with Israel, they should know that the Israeli Defense Forces are not hampered by U.S. rules of engagement. There’s not going to be any gutless lawyers running around to see if Al-Qaida fighters were blown apart fairly and squarely.
If there could be an upside to a war between Israel and Iran it could be that Israel would allow its combat soldiers to actually fight a war without handicapping its soldiers with ridiculous crippling ROE.
self-ping, thanks DMDW2SS.
“al-Shehri predicted that after Israel attacked Iranian nuclear installations, Iran would blame Saudi Arabia — which reports say may let Israel fly through its airspace to attack Iran — and use the opportunity to seize the holy cities of Mecca and Medina in Saudi Arabia.”
I’m mainly looking forward to the hole-y cities of Iran after the IAF is done with ‘em.
Russia and China stand behind Iran whose religious dictators are willing to become the flash point of an apocalypse.
That right there is crazy talk.
IF Iran tried to move an Army...tanks, artillery, men, machines, supplies etc. they would need to be able to defeat the combined Air Forces of the Arabs AND the US...or be sitting ducks.
The slaughter would dwarf that shown in Kuwait on the Highway of Death.
The same fate would await them in the narrow waters of the Persian Gulf.
Overland they'd have to drive through Iraq and Kuwait.
All Iran has is the biggest, most advanced and committed terrorist army the world has ever seen.
They have built something akin to The Assassins of lore.
These people are nothing but purveyors of supposition. They have no clue about the inner alliances within the muslim world. Ever since Iranian fanatics thumbed their nose at international protocol by taking an embassy hostage, it has been obvious to this observer they don’t have any leash on their radical urges.
Iran probably funded Osama because Osama could easily recruit an all Arabian (plus one Lebanese HizbAllah chap) to do the 9-11 historic attack. Iran wants the US public to hate Saudi Arabia. Iran and the Osama-ites have the goal of overthrowing the infidel supported regime in Saudi Arabia. Enemy of my enemy is my friend blah blah.
Now there is an airtight alliance of the USA, Saudi Arabia, the Emirates and Israel against Russia, Iran, Syria, HizbAllah held Lebanon and Hamas held Palestinian territories. It’s going to go down soon. The Russian fires are a sign the pieces have begun to move. Marginalizing the Russian nationalist aggressors is very important. These fires have them reeling.
