Dark Skies, this goading would not happen if Iran did not have nuclear weapons up and running and was ready for war. They are just begging for a fight using this stupid, silly excuse of cartoons for the Lord's sake! Their hypocritical and egregious behavior is showing the world what a joke militant Islam is.

Muzzies always try to provoke so that they can claim that their actions were a response to an attack. Mohammed himself did this. And when that doesn't work, they strike anyway. Mohammed did that, as well.

I agree. The cartoon flap might even be a diversion.

I said it before, but it bears repeating. The United States remains the only power to have detonated nuclear warheads on a civilian population. And we did it twice. These guys are rank amateurs.

And before you accuse me of Bravado, empty posturing, etc., remember.

I know that the Islamicists are not afraid of death, so mutually assured destruction won't work.

But that's just fine, it won't be MUTUAL destruction.

They have three or four warheads, we have 5,000.

You do the math...

No cheers, unfortunately. Nukes cause unimaginable suffering if used.
