#6 ...Probably on their way to the party celebrating being named a terrorist organization by Uncle Sam.

Pity they don't believe in irony OR karma.

#8 I hope there is enough planes/choppers with technical problems for all IRG.

If not, it is possible to channel some technically problematic parts to make it so?

And while at it, why limit that to IRG only? Do mullahs fly, as well?

#10 That "inshalla" crap doesn't maintain rotarty wing aircraft very well now, does it? Seems like lately old Allah ain't keeping the IRG under his wing too much either.
