    I know this is the oldest take in the world, but man when that region can get rid of medieval fanatic mentalities...aka radical islam, the world will be so much more peaceful, or at least that region would be.

      I know this is wrong to laugh but I am cracking up at re-watching that broadcast explosion video, the contrast of this fanatical religion lady ranting with her finger up and then an almost hollywood-comical explosion and debris and the sound... 😄

                I read something from the Daily Mail where Pakistan said they would nuke Israel is Israel used to nukes on Iran. It's the Daily Mail, so a big old grain of salt is appropriate. I don't believe Israel would do that, but still not comforting.

                    Yeah I saw that too. Could be real. Either way I agree Israel probably doesn't have the need to do that... air winn3rz = precision bombing until something else breaks. Ideally, they need a find a way to enable an uprising and provide cover for it to grow and take over. Could return Iran back to the 70s when they were a modern society.

                      They haven’t unleashed their largest warhead-carrying missiles yet - the Khorramshahr. I wonder if that’s what we’ll see today?

                        They might not have an assembled nuke but they could put together a bunch of dirty bombs I suppose. But I suspect that would green light a nuclear response from Israel.

                                  I can’t imagine there are that many US citizens in Iran to begin with.

                                      @89th I'm pretty sure most Iranians don't want to go back to the seventies: an era in which their country was US controlled. Most of them just want to get rid of a totalitarian islamist regime.
                                      BTW: the pics are showing what one might call 'the elite'. This scenery wasn 't as general as many folks presumed it was.

                                        One commentator I heard said that the Iranians, for the most part, have been using old stock missiles to allow Israel and US to use up their defensive missiles. This would enable Iran's next round of more powerful and effective missiles to hit Israel with fewer obstacles to be overcome. Sounds reasonable, but who knows?
