#1 These comments by Iran's brass should be tattooed on their foreheads after we capture them.

#2 Iran will shatter the image of enemies in the event of any military strike on the country.

“In the event of an attack on the Islamic Iran… we will 'bury their remaining credibility',”

the “hands of arrogant powers would be cut off”

We will absolutely drill you with our bloviation.

#4 It will be the "Mother of all battles" no doubt. Didn't Iran fight the Iraqi military to a stalemate after 8 years? The US beat Iraq in 8 minutes? Now we've got Call of Duty 4 shipping tomorrow and Americans will be playing "kick Iranian ass" across the nation (oh that level on the demo was freaking great).

This is typical nonsense rhettoric to bolster the ignorant.

#6 
It is a shame we will have to shatter so many of our JDAM's on their installations. How will we every recover our dignity?

#7 That kid in the pic is a real fatty. He needs to eat less and get out a whole lot more otherwise he is going to have the body of a mullah.

#9 The US should call the operation "Thunder Sword", not something idiotic like "Valiant Shield". The First burst should never mind any nation building consequences, destroying along with the usual list of Command Centers, armories, and Communication hubs, all bridges, dams, electrical grids, and fuel depots. Tactical nukes of low yield should be utilized behind tracer bunker busters at all nuclear, chemical, and biological sites. 'Agent Orange' the border with Iraq on the Iranian side. Napalm the border with Afghanistan! If a non nuclear missile happens to get through to Israel or hit a Carrier, destroy Qom with 4 Moabs! Close the Strait Of Hormuz anyway, sever all oil pipeline arteries out of the country! for after the first strike, the Iranians are going to swear off every ounce of oil to Russia and/or the Chicoms...make them sweat out the spike with the rest of the world.

#10 The Iranian Air Force commander declares Iran will shatter the image of enemies in the event of any military strike on the country.

Gonna be down there at the end of the runway waving goodbye to the boys like in the movies if the shit hits the fan, General?
Because I'd say you've gotta better chance at burying most of your pilots rather then anybody's "remaining credibility".
And you know it...

#12 I'm fairly certain SMN is a professional. Be careful with your identiy. You could get in a heap of trouble releasing this sort of SUPER THINKING into the non-classified world.

#13 with this threat on the horizon, I don't understand why we don't push ANWR development as a national security issue - right before heating oil bills hit the roof. Let the enviros and donks defend why we shouldn't increase our domestic oil supply

#17 JPOST > ISR Transport Minister MOFAZ:2008 WILL BE DECISIVE/DECIDING YEAR FOR STOPPING IRAN. Iran's nucprog/nucdev efforts is proceeding like an express train, while other efforts to stop or hinder Iran is like a slow train.* IDF INTEL CHIEF also warned a major Govt committee on Tuesday 11/6 that Iran could have nuclear bombs by 2009. REGION [WORLD?] IS ENTERING A "NUCLEAR REALITY" WHICH MAY FUNDAMENTALLY ALTER THINGS = BALANCE OF POWER IN THE ME FOR THE WORSE. NO ONE KNOWS WHAT WILL BE THE FINAL OUTCOME.

#18 I wave my genitals at your nanny.
I expose my buttocks at your mother.
You mother was a hampster and your father smells of elderberry.

Does Monty Python writes these guys speeches?
