The Iran thread
-
Iran will turn out to be a paper tiger ala Iraq. It's such a shame, there are millions of decent Persians living there that don't want this. I have had the pleasure of speaking with many Irani's during my vacays in Mexico. This is what they all say. They are ashamed for their country. Israel and our tech could neuter them for a long time if there was a will. But what stops them from crippling the oil in the meantime? Need to break out my Risk game and develop a strategy.

They are weak and haven't the power to muster two fronts let alone the one they are floundering in. I am sorry, but it's starting to become time again to shed American blood. And be done with it.

Will he die peacefully or unleash the Kraken just so he can see it? Or will it be our new policy to eventually let him have his Kiev pie and let him feel satisfied and let him know there will be no further advancement of that? Would that satisfy his craving to kill and conquer?

And a war could help Ms. Harris look kind of presidential.

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,'

I suspect the Russians did not give him the launch button but the codes, like us. If Putin is starting the war, does the military comply, knowing the consequences? It’s not certain just as it would be with us.

I thought Saudi and Iran were kind of enemies?
Maybe there will be some "accidental" sinking of Iran ships.

Any sense of what they’re hitting?
Bear in mind I have supported destroying their nuclear weapons facilities for years.

Such a conservative SOB.
Take out the whole theocratic government.
Search "Iran before the revolution" to see what this government has done to its population. I worked with several Iranians - all of whom are sorrowful over what the country became in the last 40 year.

I had Iranian friends in 1980 San Diego during the hostage crisis. A bit backward with women. but warm, good people. They hated Khomeni.
