You have no idea of the lion you will poke.

[Jim Noble]

A good response would be the total destruction of the Iranian Navy

Israel doesn't have the means to destroy the Iranian Navy.

[Covenantor]

Big Satan, Little Satan...all same, same to muzzies.

Iran is a typical 3rd world, Muslim, magical-thinking, multi-ethnic chaotic country. As the Brits say, they couldn’t arrange a piss-up in a brewery. Everything they do must be “asymmetric” because they can’t manage anything else.

Right now, their leaders are wondering how the US tracked Soleimani’s movements, wondering if they are next, and are busy changing their cells phones, computers, and moving their money and mistresses to safer locations.

They will do something. There is a new guy who took over and he’ll need to look like he’s a tough guy to secure his position.

[blam]

"Nothing like firing up the Israel military."

Yup. They'd love a bit of the action.

[Colt1851Navy]

The new guy’s name will be kept secret until a couple of days before his death.

Do pray like you never have before......could this be the time the bible mentions or not..time will tell. “Damascus will be in a heap of ruins...” Isaiah 17:1

[VanShuyten]

It would then be open season on all the Iranian and Iranian-backed fighters from the Mediterranean coast to the Iran-Iraq border, including those in Gaza and the West Bank. Israel has already hit several IRG bases and weapons depots in Syria and Lebanon over the past year.

*** Former Iranian Revolutionary Guard commander Mohsen Rezaei said on Sunday the retaliation for the killing of IRGC al-Quds Force chief Qasem Soleimani will include strikes on Haifa and Defense bases in Israel. I think he is Secretary of the EDC now.

[Feckless]

Yeah, when the biggest dog in the kennel bites your ass the smartest thing you can do is F with the meanest dog in the kennel.

[jeffersondem]

“From Iran’s standpoint it makes sense.”

Only in a suicidal way. Hitting Israel gives the Israelis the moral authority to do what they have hesitated to do - clean up the mess in Iran.

The only question: Do the Israelis have the military might? They do. Or will have after they are resupplied by President Trump.

[oldenuff35]

Israel is already making good use of the F-35’s they bought from us. No one has yet to bring one down and Israel has been using them on combat missions.

That should tell Iran a huge something.

[Cowboy Bob]

But we do.

[Widget Jr]

Other Arab nations may not be happy with Iran if that happens.

[rktman]

Helps keep my retirement chk coming.😁💰

[neverevergiveup]

"Israel doesn't have the means to destroy the Iranian Navy. "

Hard to say what Israel's capabilities are, but the Iranian Navy doesn't seem so formidable. I think their three destroyers are ~50 years old, and they have some frigates and three Russian-made Kilo class submarines.

[stillfree?]

What’s taking them so long?

[MortMan]

So they are admitting their complicity in these terror attacks.

[null and void]

Nice well ya got there in Qom.

Would be a pity if anything happened to it before the clock strikes 12^th imam...
