More Iranian Threats of Destruction Against the US: Just "Noise"?

Although you won't find it in the US news media, Iran is again threatening the US with destruction. As reported yesterday by Iran's Mehr News Agency in an article entitled "Iran can target any military bases in the world: general" (http://www.mehrnews.com/en/newsdetail.aspx?NewsID=1706231):

"QOM, Sept. 26 (MNA) – Brigadier General Hossein Salami, the deputy chief of the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps, said on Wednesday that Iran’s armed forces are able to target any military base around the world.

'Our military might has reached such a point that today, we are able to target any point or base in the world at any moment and with any intensity,' the Tehran Times quoted Salami as telling a gathering of armed forces in Qom.

Brigadier General Ali Ostad Hosseini, the IRGC commander in Semnan Province, also said on Tuesday that thirty-five U.S. military bases are within the range of Iran’s missiles."

Meanwhile, Obama still refuses to establish "red lines" regarding Iran's nuclear weapons development program.

Obama also refuses to put personal differences aside in order to discuss with Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu a coordinated approach to the Iranian nuclear menace, which German Chancellor Angela Merkel acknowledges as a threat not only to Israel but to the entire world (see: http://english.alarabiya.net/articles/2012/09/17/238533.html).

Obama insists that he needs to "block out" Israeli "noise" concerning this issue (see: http://www.mehrnews.com/en/newsdetail.aspx?NewsID=1704330)

Apparently, America's president is also "blocking out" unpleasant Iranian "noise."

After all, there is nothing more important than being re-elected.

  2. When America's economy is spiraling downward and voters are expected to decide on either a leader who endorses rhetoric like "Go ahead, make my day"

    vs obscenities such as "WAKE THE F--K UP!”

    ...any sound, no matter how true it may be can be misconstrued as 'noise'.

    Given these circumstances, Israel will once again have to take destiny into her own hands and do whatever is required to ensure her own survival. Better to brace for (the usual) EU and UN sanctions that would likely follow any preemtive strike than to face the unthinkable consequences of a nuclear bomb in the hands of fanatical Iranian mullahs.

    This future-forward amateur video was intended to be a warning to the world of what could happen if everybody decides to do nothing. Sanctions have failed. Containment is not an option.

    Pay close attention to the dates. This hasn't happened...yet!

  3. Apparently, the NY Post found the ad too offensive - it's already been taken down. Here's another link to the video:
