Not Netenyahu’s style.. so now Iran is now in the been-bombed club as is Saudi Arabia, ISIS bombed a mosque there a few days ago.

How does it feel guys?

Kills hundreds ?

If true, it should get some rounds on the MSM.

Cool. Any more good news? Did they get any members of the government?

Whoa.. that was taking out some big shots. Mullahs, maybe?

I apologize to the Iranian people who held vigils during 9/11... if regret if there were any ‘innocent’ lives lost.

I may be like Thomas, but I’ll believe this when some source other than DEBKA provides confirmation and details. Just don’t believe two guys in a flat over a Kosher Pizza place would have something like this before, ohhh AFP. And The Jewish Press picked up the story and has since pulled it

That’s a propaganda shot of another building in another country. But something is going on.
