I don’t think anything NutJob does is satire (he’s a Muslim, so he doesn’t really have a sense of humor).
I’d watch this closely. Given the political dire straits of Iran, plus its nascent nuclear capability, this might be his equivalent of a “lebensraum” call; i.e., “just like Germany in the 1920s and 30s, modern Iran is a ‘have not’ nation . . . and it’s your fault! You caused it during WWII and Iran has suffered ever since!”
He’s thinking up casus belli rationales. We should watch this story closely.
I think you've nailed it.
