#1 I had no idea. I'm shocked. No, really . . . .

#2 The minute Israel determined that any foreign government was paying for attacks via proxy, it should have retaliated directly against that foreign government. Specifically against whoever ordered the attack.

Such antics only exist when those pulling the strings feel they can do so with impunity.

Now if the Israelis wanted to be a little subtle about it, they should make of list of the leaders of Iran, from most radical to least radical, then start by culling the most radical, even if they had no direct responsibility for the attack.

By doing it this way, they would both get easier targets, and better long range effects.

#3 "There is a price list that takes into consideration the number of missiles fired, casualties and damage, an official said.”

Hey… this ain’t no idle chatter…looky right there…an “official” said it. So…it’s gotta be true..right?

#5 So it could be true, it it could be false information fed by the Mossad, or it could just be a rumour... I wouldn't be surprised if it were true, though. So many others have paid by the operation through the years, like Saddam Hussein.

#6  "Still flogging the usual peeve, eh DG?"

Heh…Pappy. I know…I know. Sorry, I couldn’t resist. When it comes to Rodan’s reporting, I would be shocked if he actually had a named source. Not to mention…a return on investment list? Methinks a tanker-truck of sodium is needed on this one. Wonder how long before “Iranfocus” picks this one up.
