#1 ...In a perfect world, the commanders of the IRGC would have the same turnover rate - and lifespan - as the leaders of ISIS or Al Queda. When people start to realize that getting the job shortens your lifespan considerably, it tends to be nowhere near as much fun.

#6 In 1935 the Shah changed the name.

However, during the preceding 3000 years, the land has had many names, e.g., Media (the Greeks usually called it that), Pars (hebrew bible) Arya (from avesta poetry).

#8 IRGC commander Major General Mohammad Ali Jafari demanded Wednesday the U.S. withdraw all of its military bases within 1,000 kilometers (more than 621 miles) of Iran's borders

This is a strangely detailed demand.
What are the odds that the Obama admin actually committed the US to such a withdrawal in some sooper sekrit annex of the nuclear deal?

Might explain Soetoro's adamant refusal to get a SOFA with Baghdad, and insisting on the drawdown...

#12 Why would Israel want the enviro cleanup responsibility?

#13 Shhhh, they don't have to actually clean it up. The message is this: Annoy us, we destroy you and give your land to Israel.
