#1 They have been at war with us since 1979. That is some serious preemption.

#2 On one hand they talk first strike, then retaliation. Sounds like a group of Jr High School kids I saw in a parking lot the other day. I'm glad they still don't get it. After our first strike there will be no retaliation. Dumb little Assmanjohnnie.

#3 Seems there's been a spate of 'Iranian response' articles lately. With the exception of the reputed ballistic missiles, anyone who's followed Iran's internal and extra-national activities would by now have a fairly good idea of what they intend to do.

Most of the Iranian pronouncements are likely for internal consumption. When the Iranian population stops buying gold, then I'll worry.

#4 I'm glad they still don't get it.

Even better would be if their top brass really believed any of this unmitigated tripe. It's like they've got Bagdhad Bob's twin brother scripting this stuff.

#5 "Increasingly offensive ... and deterrent"> now DEFENSIVE DETERRENT?

Consider PRAVDA > GORBACHEV - EUROPE NEEDS RUSSIA, i.e. EUROPE = EU will NEVER attain its desired level of global or international influence without Russia. DITTO IRAN + RUSSIA-CHINA = IRAN NEEDS SCO/EURASIA???
