#13 Okay, Schwarzkopf had a damned hard time searching the scud box, with next to nothing to show for it. But that was then--how many scuds did Saddam launch in 2003? How many FROGs? Planes? Anything? We've been tracking Iran's mobile target sets for a looonnnggg time, all I can say is that they'll be gone in about the same amount of time it took us to take out all of Saddam's mobile missiles. |

#11 The Lefts have to do something ags America, to rsetrict or stop her or destroy her before America/Western democracies starts deploying DEATH STAR(S), BATTLESTAR(S) GALACTICAS, WAR PLANETS or MOON BASES, et al. |

#10 IRAQ = IRAN = NORKOR = CUBA....... etc. it'll be ASYMMETRIC WARFARE, more popularly known as INSURGENCY, GUERILLA WAR, or PEOPLE'S WAR, be these Conventional or Nuclearized. The US- and International Lefts know America's concepts of maintaining absolute BATTLEPSACE/MILTECH DOMINANCE > America's enemies need GROUPS-MASSES of nations, societies, regions and governments just to attain military-specific warfighting parity or sufficiency of scale ags US or US-led Allied milfors. It is a major rationale for the anti-USA agendists working to induce the world community and UNO against alleged, "illegal" or "immoral", American and only American "imperialism" and "international aggression(s)", etc. The Failed Left in reality will NOT accept or tolerate America NOT warring for new global empire! |

#9 They're using Atlantic Monthly for strategy -- good enough to beat the French, but we're not the French. |

#8 Whistling as you pass the graveyard has historically been proven an effective strategy to ward off evil spirits. Now, the only thing we have left to determine... will whistling fiercely keep the American's at bay long enough for Iran to become a nuclear power. |

#5 This is from Scrappleface, right? "Almost all the Arab states possess one or another kind of advanced missile system, eg, . . . Iraq's Frog-7." The Frog-7 is sophisticated? Amazingly funny stuff. |

#4 The ruse of power, however, is that it is often blind to the opposite momentum that it generates, as has been the case of the Cuban people's half a century of heroics vis-a-vis a ruthless regime of economic blockade, Algerian nationalists fighting against French colonialism in the 1950s and 1960s, and, at present, the Iranian people finding themselves in the unenviable situation of contemplating how to survive against the coming avalanche of a US power led entirely by hawkish politicians donning the costumes of multilateralism on Iran's nuclear program. Yet few inside Iran actually believe that this is more than pseudo-multilateralism geared to satisfy the United States' unilateralist militarism down the road. One hopes that the road will not wind down any time soon, but just in case, the "Third World" Iranians are doing what they can to prepare for the nightmare scenario. The whole situation calls for prudent crisis management and security confidence-building by both sides, and, hopefully, the ugly experience of repeated warfare in the oil-rich region can itself act as adeterrent. Tipper, you been getting tips from Mikey? |

#3 I hear smooth, radioactive, glowing Iranian glass is also quite "mezmerizing". |

#2 DN - Lol! Prolly the sparkling rainbow glitter effect as the blood mist fell - backlit by the setting sun and secondaries. Almost brings tears to my eyes... |

#1 A week-long combined air and ground maneuver has just concluded in five of the southern and western provinces of Iran, mesmerizing foreign observers, who have described as "spectacular" the massive display of high-tech, mobile operations No doubt mesmerized by the spectacle of seeing untrained boys march into minefields as human sweepers. |
