Note to Iran.......Be careful what you wish for.
They can talk tough now because we have odumbo at the helm but soon, odumbo will be “gone” and a new sheriff will be in town. If that “Sheriff” is Trump, Iran had better dig some pretty deep holes, they are going to need it.
You missed the point - they want/welcome war, the bloodier the better. Even if Iran suffers huge numbers of dead and dead leaders it is just fine with them.
You are thinking like a westerner not a Shiia 12ver. They are effectively and clinically insane from the western point of view. Westerners love life, they love death.
This is their religion: mass blood will bring the 12th Imam out of the well he climbed into 600 years ago. He will only emerge if sufficient blood is spilled and the scent draws him forth. Out of the well, he will lead the forces of Islam to total world domination and everyone will be brought to Paradise (aka human extinction), with he last two living muslims obliged to kill each other.
They are not called the mad mullahs for no reason ...
