#6 40,000 is almost easier to handle than a couple of hundred. Easier to find, easier to track, and big missles work well when they group together. It's those last few hundred that are always a nuisance.

#7 plus one or two will ineveitably boom accidently and if they're in tight formation it'll be the Iranian version of Chinese firecracker strings

#8 I remember reading in the initial invasion 1000+ sucide bombers attacked near al Kut in a sandstorm.
There were sucide cycles, tanks, people, dogs, donkeys everything... all died without reaching the troops.

#13 Ten years ago I would have said they can't find 40,000 people that stupid who are smart enough to pull it off. Today I'll just say that it's a long walk to the border from Tehran, especially when you have to detour around those high-radiation zones.

#17 OK, maybe I am splitting hairs, but how can they be "trained suicide bombers" and still be ready for action vs. being pink clouds? Is that like training for infantry with broomsticks or something?

I'm really quite amazed they think this is a real threat. I guess it beats pitch forks and torches, but 40,000 guys charging with back packs just seems like pure idiocy. What is their plan, to secretly smuggle them in by the busload and drop them off at shopping centers without anyone noticing? Jeesh ... you just can't fix stupid, err, islam, um, I repeat myself ...

#18 The NPE and USDOD must be ready for any attempt at Terror-disguised-as-Decapitation Strike(s) against Dubya and the GOP, as its about the only guaranteed way the RINO CINO agenda-less Dems can be POTUS, and espec to be so whether or not Dubya chooses to attack Iran = North Korea [Taiwan?] or
not. The WOT is about CONTROL OF THE WORLD IN GENERAL,; and where the Failed/Angry Left is concerned is about inducing = forcing democratic America under anti-sovereign, anti-American American National and Global Socialism and Socialist World Order, by any means necessary, legal andor illegal. IFF NOT, RUSSIA-CHINA > NUCLEAR WAR AGAINT AMERICA, AND ONLY AMERICA, IS NOT ONLY POSSIBLE/REALISTIC BUT DESIRED, CIRCA 2015-2018, when the economies of both nations will hopefully be modernized enough and strong enough to CHALLENGE A DESTABILIZED WEAKENED AMERICA. Both Russia and China adhere to the "War/Battle/Local Zone" strategem of NUCLEARIZED active defense, includ forms of "People's War, but which emphasizes POLITICAL-DIPLOMATIC VICTORY OVER MILITARY OR ARMED FORCE. THe WOT then, for the Left, can be ascribed amongst other labels as WAR FOR/BETWEEN DEGREE(S) = FORMS OF SOCIALISM - since Britain is alreday a Western deomcratic Socialist nation, ANY MASSED TERROR ATTACKS AGAINST HER WILL HAVE THE EFFECT OF INDUCING COMMUNIST- AND TOTALITARIAN-STYLE ABSOLUTIST SOCIALIST METHODS, like America in the name of Safety, Security, Accountability/
Responsibility, and Protection, .....@etal feel-good populist labels. Its not SOcialism or Communism or Marxism or Totalitarianism, etc. but alleged PC, fell-good, Communists-for-Fascism-for-Communism, Leftist-for-Rightism-for-Leftism "ANTI-FASCISM". The nationalist, internationalist, and globalist agendas for Secular Leftist-Socialists, and God/Faith based Socialists =THeocrats, aka God/Faith-based Lefties, are essens the same.

#19 So this is their reserves? Whaddare they gonna do if we do NOT attack? Just keep feeding 'em on 'hot standby"? Why haven't they ALREADY attacked?

I grow tired....

#20 According to Iranian officials, 40,000 trained suicide bombers are ready for action.

Sounds real good to me, be sure to attack en-masse so one good Marine Sniper (But I repeat Myself) can get the whole 40 K with one shot.
