#1 Ready to react? Like what? Saying "Oh Sh*t" when he goes up in flames as they strike the command structure?

#2 And, in the same vein, what if it's the US that comes to call, instead of Israel? Enough bluff and bullshit. Decap. tick... tock...

#3 Kharrazi needs to lay off on the kool-aid and stick to decaff as well. If there is an attack it's not going to look like it did when Iraq had it's French supplied reactor taken out. Iran may well be left with no means to respond.

#4 However, he added, "we are for a one-state solution."

In other words, "Push Israel into the sea ..."

Decap. tick... tock...

.com, remember all the shit you gave me over advocating decapitation of Iran's government? Can we finally agree to agree?

#5 Any chance that U.S. forces will add insult to injury when Israel's pilots do their job? I'm kind of thinking along the lines of a rain of Tomahawk missiles to finish off what was started....

#6 Zen - You've got a selective and flawed memory, son. I was advocating a decap well over a year ago - long before you showed up on RB. Here's one that's almost exactly a year old, for example. I don't keep links to all my comments, but this was was kept because it was, IMHO, a clear cassis belli for dealing with the Mad Mullahs.

When I challenged you to help me develop a real plan for how to take down Iran - and you responded with a bunch pf utterly pointless political diatribe - I gave up. Remember, now?

"tick... tock..."

That was often my closing byline on comments regarding the Black Hats... long ago.

Y'know, life on Earth did exist, and RB was blowing and going strong before you or I showed up, heh.

#7 Oops - forgot to mention, I was "PD" back then.

.com, glad to know it, but I just wanted to make sure you and I were reading from the same page. It's not like my own order of battle against the Iranians would have been utterly ineffective. Iran's mullahs need to be given the Yassin treatment right away. While you may not like my own style, your own "fry 'em up" sentiments gain strength every day this world must continue to endure the thundering silence that is Muslim disapproval of terrorism.

#9 I hate to say it, but that "fry 'em up" sentiment gets stronger within me everyday. And I do believe it's coming. Sad. I am very glad the internet is here, now, documenting this slow, but steady, evolution towards an inevitable showdown. Left to the MSM, our grandchildren would be presented with a load of total crap about how and why we came to have only annihilation or dhimmitude as options. Heavy Sigh. I don't much care about history, but I do care about what those kids will think of me, us.

I don't think we're on separate pages, regards Iran or even Islam, just domestic politics - and the fact that I can't follow the ABB BS when people say they want action. He's the only one with the stones to deliver. He's flawed, no doubt, but he "gets it" regards Islamofascism far far better than any other US politician. Hell, they don't even have the stone to talk honestly about it - he does shit. His recent statement that we would not allow the Mad Mullahs to have nukes, in combination with the fact that Congress (lol!) has already authorized him to use "'all appropriate means' to end Iranian nuclear weapons development" is why I'm sleeping well, these days. Like it or not, he's the man for the job, heh.

#10 What form of reacting will those nuke happy mullahs undertake when Israel feels the situation is very dangerously close to becoming on a direct nuclear threat by Tehran's leadership of 7th century mindset wackos.?

Cry to North Korea to help build another nuke weapons plant with the assistance of former Soviet nuclear scientists among others, or option two, scream, yell and rant but nothing more since they already know one little mullah missile launched at Israel from Iranian territory will result in many mullahs being greeted by Hitler, Stalin, Khomeini & other mass murderers like 9-11's Atta all saying, "What took you crumb bums so long?"

#11 Providing Iran with enriched uranium under an IAEA inspection regime could be an answer to calm the Mullahs down and promote stability in the region. At least we could begin a dialogue if we offered this plan. After we win their confidence (say only 5-10 years) and they see that we are sincere, then Rosie and I will be willing to put up a few homes in Bam. And supervise Iranian elections. Golly, look at the job my team did in Venezuela. I'll talk to Kofi and see what he says.

All the best,

Jimmah

PS: Rosie is polishing my noble pride, I mean prize, right now in celebration of my 80th birthday. Sheeit! Amy, what did you do with that Masters and Johnson book? Damn, can't you just leave my books alone and stick to your own? You know how that got me ridiculed before and I don't want to get ridiculed by your mamma!
