    Indeed, Iran might just be parroting what its Kremlin benefactor and fair weather ally does on a regular basis. You can be sure the Moscow Gollum is whispering in the Ayatollah’s ear:

      Hit them with what, exactly? Their missiles?

      I may be wrong, but it sounds like a bluff. They've already been attacking US interests through the Houthis and we've done very little.

          It's a bit about conforming to history. The management of Iran is already located back in the dark ages, why not put the economics of the country in the same status? There is no reason Iran should be allowed to deliver such a vicious and random attack on the citizens of Israel. Individual citizens should not be hurt but Iran should be rendered economically unworkable. It's time to neuter Iran.

          Bach, please inform Mr. Netinyuhu he has my full assent. Proceed with your plans. 😉

              FIFY. There is no possible way to target a regime without hurting some individual citizens.

                      Not sure how accurate this analysis is, but it’s as good as any I’ve read or seen.

                      Don’t know what this guys background is.

                        Saw a comment that France will not support the Israeli retaliation against Iran.

                        Norman Schwarzkopf: 'Going to war without France is like going hunting without an accordion,'

                        The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

                          Taking out their ballistic missile capability sounds pretty proportional to me. Restrained even.
