Looks like the Iranians are letting it be known that Trump can say what he wants about "all options are on the table." They seemingly aren't afraid of a showdown with Trump who thinks the Iranian deal was a canard and who continuously promises to get tougher on Iran.

Sometimes i wonder if we shouldn't just go ahead and go to war with Iran just so that our more warmongering citizens can get it out of their system. Apparently, losing wars hasn't lessened their appetite for more conflict. Too many people think that Iran is an easy mark. Maybe another long, protracted war that'll end up like Vietnam did will satisfy them.




Iran ready to give U.S. 'slap in the face': commander

Why would you think a war would solve this?

I don't think the OP is saying that actually.

It wouldn't actually. Because we're Americans. Repeating the failures of history is no big deal. It's the family business.

Yeah, but they haven't been nearly as disastrous as a war with Iran will be. But people keep underestimating the Iranians as if they're the Iraqis. They aren't...and war in Iran will make Iraq look like a Super Mario game.

So what's this "big warning" from Iran?

I don't think it's worth clicking on the link to find out.

Iran would be another "cakewalk" and we would be greeted as "liberators". Sorry, I couldn`t resist. Perhaps we`ll pay for it with Iranian oil revenues.

The animated film version:

Message to ‘warmonger’ Trump: Film showing Iran defeating US forces set to be released

"An animated film depicting Iran's Revolutionary Guards defeating US forces will soon open in Iranian cinemas. The movie's director says he hopes the film will show “warmongering” President Trump what will happen if the US attacks the Islamic Republic."
