'You can't do a damn thing!' Iran's supreme leader Ayatollah Khamenei hits back at Donald Trump after the president threatened to make him pay a 'big price' for US embassy attack
- Khamenei strongly condemned US airstrikes on Iraq which killed 25 militants from Kataeb Hezbollah on Sunday night and refurted Trump's claim that Iran 'orchestrated' yesterday's embassy assault in Baghdad
- Thousands - many of them members of the Iran-backed militia - rushed the heavily fortified Green Zone
- Today photos emerged showing the scorched interior of the embassy's secure entrance after it was set alight
- One militant had said: 'God willing if this fire reaches inside the embassy, we will not spare a single employee'
- President Donald Trump's reinforcements were engaged early Wednesday as tear gas was fired to disperse those who had spent the night outside the main gates. Several ambulances arrived to ferry the wounded

So many problems would be solved if, the next time the Iranian Parliament is in session and the Ayatollah is there, they drop a MOAB on them.
Sure, the muslim world would be up in arms, burning flags, chanting Death to America. They do that on a Tuesday.
But one thing they’d definitely be doing is saying....”Holy Sh*t...This Trump guy don’t mess around. Did you see the size of the hole in the ground? They used one of those things in Afghanistan and it took down a mountain. Brother, I gotta go. You take care. Salami & Bacon, my brother.”

Iran wanted the money for bad purposes. They demanded cash and Pussyobama gave it to them willingly.

I thought the same thing when reading that. Stick a cruise missile in this guy’s ear.

This militant obviously doesn’t know much about the embassy. I visited it back in late 2015. It is a sizable complex, with multiple reinforced buildings. Each building has multiple passive protection measures (reinforced concrete walls, thick bulletproof/shrapnelproof windows, etc.). Whatever he was told, this was not a serious effort to seize/capture the embassy.
I suspect that they were trying to either embarass the U.S. or more likely, get one or more of the “demonstrators” killed. With the objective to aid Iran in taking attention off of the regime’s massive repression and economic failures.
Killing them in this context would have given the mullahs what they wanted.

Refuted. The writer was having a gas attack and nearly blurted out how he felt at the moment. (Hope that clears the air)! Snicker-snort!

They were also hoping that our media would eviscerate Trump and create a gigantic failure over his head. Their timing was off as the major Trump haters of journalism (and the DNC who writes their talking points) were off for the holiday so the response from the “Orange man bad” crowd was muddled at best.

Thinking alike.
The moozies might be all fired up but the deed would be done and they couldn’t do a thing about it. Whooosh! Boom! Vaporized. Oh my, how did that happen? Who could have done such a thing?
