#1 they will not be secure in the region or at home.

The latter is probably true, with the fifth-column activity.

#3 "suicide drones

If there's no one on board, it really can't be a suicide attack, can it?

Unless, of course, he means his entire country.

#7 Irans supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei had on Thursday vowed to hit back at US interests worldwide if Washington attacked the Islamic republic.

Of course, if one of the first things we take out is your sorry ass, Mr Ayatollah, then you won't be in a position to give too many orders, because those 72 babes will have you quite occupied...

when the missiles fly, wake me up.
