#3 What, y'all didn't read the article?

Kerry said the U.S. believed its Arab allies had the ability to confront Iranian interference in the region.

"I think President Obama's belief and our military assessments, our intelligence assessments, are that if they organise themselves correctly, all of the Arab states have an untapped potential that is very, very significant to be able to push back against any of these activities," he said.

See? Not to worry! The Saudis have (or soon will have) The Bomb! And they know how to use it!

#5 g(r)omgoru, I thought you might be amused to hear that I read that and heard myself think, completely innocently, "Damn, he must be about the coolest neighbor ever."

Has Rantburg its own Rochefoucauld?

#8 SecState Jawwhn must be referring to ...

* TOPIX > [Town Hall.com] IRAN: DEATH TO AMERICA, WE [Iran] WON [agz US], AND WE'LL DO WHAT WE WANT WID YOUR BILYUHNS - GUY BENSON.

* BIGNEWSNETWORK > [AEI Today] IRAN: WE WILL SUPPORT ALL THE TERROR GROUPS WE WANT [+ buy all the Weapons we need], as needed or pertinent to protect our Country + Our Security.

Iran Deputy FM.

VERSUS

* BLOOMBERG > OBAMA DEFENDS IRAN NUCLEAR DEAL AS DEMOSTRATION OF US LEADERSHIP.

The choice of mainstream Amerika is between Peace-n-Compromise [Agreement] wid Iran, OR WAR = NUCLEAR WAR.

SNAFU/FUBAR = OBAMA CAN MAKE ROUGHLY THE SAME ARGUMENT VEE LT "NUCLEAR CLUB" MEMBERS + OWG GLOBALIST-DESIRED "US-STYLE", "US-PAR" CO-SUPERPOWERS RUSSIA + CHINA, ESPEC CHINA AS PER THE ON-GOING EAST-SOUTH CHINA SEA DISPUTES [ph, Vietnam, + Nippon], + GIVING UP GUAM-WESTPAC = 1/2 OF THE PACIFIC [Hawaii?] TO BEIJING.

* SAME > [Xinhua] NUCLEAR DEAL ALLOWS IRAN TO [produce +] EXPORT URANIUM, HEAVY WATER.

WHAT COULD POSSIBLY GO WRONG!?

* JERUSALEM POST > IRAN'S CONVENTIONAL MILITARY POWER "OVER-RATED", SECURITY STUDY SAYS.

Noted Analyst-Pert Anthony H. Cordesman of the CSIS Think-tank.

ARTIC = While large, Iran's Armed Forces espec its Air Force + Missle Forces' milassets are either obsolete, andor of an older design easily defeatable by Israel + US-Allies. IN ITS CURRENT STATE, IRAN'S ARMED FORCES ARE CAPABLE OF MOSTLY OR WHOLLY "DEFENSIVE" ACTIONS, NOT "OFFENSIVE" ACTIONS = O-T-H PROJECTION OF COMBAT POWER.

Again, as a future OWG Co-Superpower sibling to the [weak-n-declining?]US, Iran needs to modernize its discrepit, backward, unreliable Military-Industrial Complex to match its new status as Globalist Amerika's BFF/BFRNF + SSSHHH ... CCCCCC "Co-Amerika" in the ME + Gulf.

As a reminder, 1990's = Pre-9-11, Post-9-11 MAD MULLAHS = ... ...
> prefer Iran be attacked andor invaded by the US or US-led Coalition in case of war.
> Iran to unilaterally or "asymmetrically" act "defensively" + wage both Conventional War + "People's War", including "People's Nuclear War", agz any invading US-Coalition Milfors. DITTO AS PER MAJOR ANTI-US NUCWAR = "WAR OF MUTUAL ANIHILATION" IFF IRAN CAN DEV OR POSSESS THE RELEVANT NUCTECHS BY THEN.
> Iran = not afraid to use to violate + use the sovereign territories of its neighbors as a means of waging the above agz the US. ALL OF WEST- CENTRAL ASIA, ETC. TO BECOME AN ANTI-US BATTLEFIELD IFF NEED BE.
> "BETTER FOR ISLAM + ENTIRE WORLD TO BE DESTROYED THAN TO NOT RULE THE WORLD".
