#2 Without a trace of irony, it is very becoming that Europe will fall under the gunsights of Iran's missile program first. Kicking and screaming, they have struggled to snatch this defeat from the jaws of victory. They deserve it.

#3 Since Iran cannot physically invade Europe, the Euros are left with the bizarre situation. "Well, if they just nuke *one* of our cities, is that acceptable? How about two?"

They are so marginalized that this is not as ridiculous as it sounds.

#4 We should've known that Europe was finished when we had to save their bacon twice last century.
This time, we should sneak in there and build underground bomb factories, then after the muzzies take over, we bomb their schools and check points and such on a daily basis. Would be fun to watch, wouldn't it ?

#5 Or just fire cruise missiles or TLAMs at random city target coords and at random times. Keep 'em steppin' lively. We could make a game show or lottery thingy out of it.

#6 I envision a "Survivor - Europe" series. However, in this case, no one makes it off of the island.

#7 Hey, buggers, I live in Europe. Had to leave all my guns in Texas. Lots of natives would use 'em if they had 'em. How do we get some arms smuggled over this way?

#8 Hmmm. I think revisiting the Olde Way might work. First you get your pitchforks and torches organized, then you hang the wankers who think you shouldn't be armed (use the Mussolini Model Methinks), then call home and use UPS.

"buggers"? Ahem. If you don't mean 'Burgers, then we have a serious problem, lol. ;-)

#9 To be fair, .com, a fair few Rantburgers are genuine Log Cabin Republicans, bless 'em. ;-)
