    It worked a lot longer than we thought it would.

    Did that ever worry you?

      Hmmm.

      The whole reason we call them illegal aliens is because they’re subject to our laws.

          I don't quite understand what would be gained by a renewed attack.

            Optimistically a regime that didn’t pursue nuclear weapons for millenarian purposes, didn’t build proxy armies all over the Middle East (and soon Europe) to destabilize governments also for millenarian purposes, etc.

            But we know better than to be too optimistic about these things.

              Had to look up millenarian. Interesting. I find it hard to believe that something as arbitrary as base 10 mathematics (I suspect 10 fingers... 10 toes is the genesis of that) has anything to do with or effect on world events.

              And I don't see how another attack is a remotely likely catalyst for that.

                The US has now 2 aircraft carrier groups moved to just outside of Iran? Each of those holds ~80 planes.....................

                    I don't see what the justification is for another attack.

                      Well the immediate cause was the deadly crackdown on the protesters.
