I dunno...I figure for an ol’ broad, I do pretty well comparing past history to current situations...Seems Iran did something pretty foolish when Jimmeh Cahtah was in office, too.
I hope the curmudgeonly ruler of Iran doesn’t make a mistake that he can’t undo.

My comments were merely rhetorical, maybe a bit histrionic but rhetorical nevertheless, to emphasize how meshuggeh,off-the-wall-wacky, they really are.

I’m no strategist but it looks like a no-lose move for Iran.
I’m sure Iran has our bases under observation. If there’s an increase/change in security status, because Israel signaled to us that an attack is imminent, that could be interpreted as a prelude to an Israeli attack - so they have advance warning. If Israel attacks Iran without warning and Iran attacks us in turn we get on Israel’s case for not giving us a heads up. Perhaps we retaliate against Israel by cutting some aid.
If nothing else, Iran gets in a little saber rattling to maintain their anti-crusader image.

Last I heard, we still have some bases in Turkey. Turkey, last I heard, was a NATO member. If the Persians were to attack a U S base in Turkey, which would emerge:Islamic Turkey or NATO Turkey?

It’s clear, The U. S. would be drawn in, if Israel attacked
Iran. I imagine that’s why big”O” won’t meet with Bebe.

They’ve said this numerous times before. Maybe they feel the strength because of their huge submarine fleet.

That is a great question! One for which I do not have the answer. I have few answers which are based upon knowing the region. Best guess, is still a don't know, yet iran could count on being whacked.

I’d bet that the powers-that-be(the imams and the mullahs) would go for that trip to paradise, but the guys in the street, not so much.

Ax, I misread your post the first time and thought it said, gays in the streets. Was LOL. Must need new glasses.
Regarding the imams and the mullahs ... It is sometimes difficult to not be sorry for them, when considering where they will spend eternity. Bet allah is fired up while he thinks about it and has the fires stoked and readying those fires for them.

Being “out” in the Moslem world is never a good thing. Even in relatively secular Turkey, gays are not welcome. And don’t worry about the misreading: I do that several times a day.

In that sense, it is good ahmadinejad is gay. Turkey will stand with NATO on that basis.
