An Iranian military commander said that his country has detailed contingency plans to strike nearly three dozen U.S. military bases in the region should Iran be attacked, local media reported Wednesday.

Brig. Gen. Amir Ali Hajizadeh, the commander of the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC) Aerospace Force, told reporters the U.S. has 35 bases around Iran and all are "within the reach of our missiles" and could be hit "in the early minutes after an attack," according to an English-language report from Iran's semi-official Fars News Agency.

How many bases do we have in Iraq, Afghanistan, Dubai, Kuwait?
They might be able to.

So much saber-rattling.

Even more reason to close our bases overseas.

You mean they actually might try to defend themselves?

If we attack Iran since we are the Policemen of the world, you don't think they have the right to attack us back???

I don't know that much about Persian culture or the middle east in general.

But it seems like Arabs and Persians seem to be very into saber-rattling always prattling on about how powerful they are.

I like how Israel walloped the shyt out of the Egyptians in 6 days. You don't see the Israel's talking smack, but they sure as hell can deliver it.

The only thing holding the Israelis back from full on attacking Iran is the US, and frankly I wish they let dogs go on that one.

That A hole Ahmadinejad is always calling Israel nasty things like a "rotting corpse".... I'm surprised Mossad hasn't been dispatched to take care of that cretin.

Considering the number of proximity of American bases and installations within spitting distance of Iran, saying that they are capable of hitting any one of them or all of them wouldn't exactly be a noteworthy military accomplishment of note.

Hahaha - yeah, and I can pee 400 feet in the air too.

When are people going to stop believing the BS that's constantly spouted by the Iranians?
