Tehran on Monday dismissed as thoughtless comments by a top US general that Iran's atomic sites could be attacked if the nuclear issue remains unsolved, the official IRNA news agency reported.

"His comments are thoughtless and it is better that any statement made in this regard take a constructive approach," Sounds like a Democrat constructed response.

It’s true. General David Petraeus, head of US Central Command should not have said anything like this.
He should have jsut nuked Iran and gotten it over with.

“The Iranian general sent a letter of condolences to Hizbullah saying he believed “the cancerous bacterium called Israel” would vanish soon, according to report by the Iranian news agency Fars on Monday.
“Jaafari’s remarks express hope for the destruction of Israel. This is an anti-Jewish, anti-Semitic and racist remark,” the Ministry said in a statement”

Why would these “bozos” even comment on this? I really believe the Iranians know something about Obama. I think they are trying to dictate their policy to us.

Are you forgetting who sits in the Oval Office. Iran’s mullahs are not only unafraid, they are emboldened.
And they are a mere inch from atomic weapons in their possession if they haven’t already done so. Suspect our intel knows this along with North Korea’s role in assisting there too.

They like to talk tough but at a military level Iran is a paper tiger.

They already have them. They are just biding their time waiting for the right moment to strike.

He's right. A better approach would be the 1st Marine division and the 101 stationed in the UAE, and a heavy corps on the Iraq border. Then call for free elections in Iran and give them a week to comply. When they don't, turn off the lights and take a 2 week vacation in sunny Persia. Then hold the election anyway.
