The current Liar in Chief is making bellicose statements in the general direction of Iran, which is retaliating with equally bellicose statements. Some hawks are even urging a strike against Iran to stop it from developing nuclear weapons.

Israel is also threatening pre-emptive strikes.

While the threats are handy enough, we don't need to invade Iran. The Iranian government is already terrified. To give you a bad analogy. It's comments of aggression and threats are the actions of a mouse cornered by a cat. The mouse knows it's going to get whacked unless the cat loses interest or it manages to escape.

To rephrase, Iran is not going to develop nuclear weapons any time soon. In addition to the fact that they lack the resources to build more than one or two, the regime there is terrified of doing something that'll spur more sanctions and retribution.

Don't believe me?

Lemme link this pastor and Iran's nuclear ambitions for you.

The only reason this pastor hasn't been killed is because of international pressure and the idiotocracy that runs Iran is afraid of what will happen if he is killed. Need more proof? Look at past cases from Iran in which sentences were reduced for people who's case received international attention.

Need more proof? Look at China. China kills citizens there for a variety of crimes and thumbs its nose at the rest of the world. China knows it doesn't have to worry about international opinion.

Iran is worried, justifiably so. The United States has a pretty hefty track record of beating the hell out of nations that it finds annoying. Damnocrats and Reboobicans are equally responsible for this imperialist attitude.

And people wonder why the United States is hated in so many places.
Iran is not going to do anything that brings more pain down on the collective head of the country. 


Of course, I could be wrong. I attribute some common sense and rationality to the Iranian leaders. That may be a mistake.

The leaders in Iran could be just as delusional as the elected leaders of the United States.
