#1 Because Iran might have the bomb, or might not?

#2 "They tried to bring a small number of tanks and personnel carriers in through al-Durah but they were surrounded and most of their infidels had their throats cut."

#3 This just gave me a funny thought.

I'd love to be in the heads of Middle Easterners if the US were to announce.

"Okay, a**holes, we've had enough of your $h*t. Next time you see our tanks we're taking over and going back to that whole colonization thing. You'll get the gov't that WE think is best for the likes of you. Dig?"

#4 remember when Saddam was doing his "Mother of all Battles" Stchick? And Kadaffy had the "Line of Death"?

Moslems are good at that kind of thing. Its almost a tradmark. They can really Baghdad Bob you heavy. Its Ya Allah at its best.

We should be quivering in fear.

Where is the mayonnaise? Do you want a beef or a pork wiener for that?

A "senior Iranian military commander" you say.? File him under a small jar of cheap Mustard.

#5 Good grief, for some reason this makes me flash back to when I was in the Sinai after the second Arab Israeli war and saw an IDF tank literally tied to the ground with control wires from anti tank missiles that had missed...great hardware, those French made wire guided AT missiles but the Arabs were and probably still are LOUSY shots...

Now that our Army is the most battle seasoned and battle tested in the world...what does that bunch of thugs think they are...we'll eat their lunch in about two weeks and have dinner in Teheran.

#6 Were all IDF tanks issued wire cutters after that, Karl?
