1  Just a dog with its  teeth pulled thats all bark and no bite. In the 7 days of the so-called cease fire there have been drone attacks daily on the regime leaders as well as the IRCG. Today a secret meeting of the IRCG came to an abrupt end when a drone came flying in the window causing mass causalities. These attacks are allegedly being carried out by the Mossad. The IRCG is responding by arresting the remaining Jews in Iran as well as Kurds and European nationals caught up in this war. Had the IRCG not put up check points everywhere the revolution in Iran may well be underway.     Meanwhile the Crown prince is meeting with world leaders and has the support of some of Irans army brass that so far has stayed out of this war. Who knows what will happen when Israel gets done in Gaza which will be coming to and end soon. 

2 I think you've got it, Mike. Luckily, the real God doesn't listen to these people.

BTW, I'm not going to hold my breath until the Crown Prince gets crowned. I'm not sure he's hugely popular among the citizens of Iran, and neither was his father. Yes, they were both better-liked than the mullahs, but that's not saying a lot.

3 Mike, I agree that their military can't do much, but any sleeper cells here in the U.S. could attempt an assassination of Trump. Still, with the new man in charge it's growing increasingly difficult for them to operate.

I heard an expert on a show on Salem News (can't remember who) who said the exiled prince isn't coming back. I don't know; if he does he has to come back as a constitutional monarch, like in England. I doubt the Iranians would tolerate a return to the authoritarian style of monarchy they used to have.

I don't know if Trump is right or not in his holding back Israel from taking out Khamanei. On the one hand it would demoralize an already very demoralized government. But on the other it makes him a martyr. It may be better to let the man die naturally and then enjoy the war for control of the country that follows.

As it is, Trump can strangle them economically now. Israel has humiliated them militarily, as have we, and if we should send a few bucks and weapons to rebel groups inside Iran they might just kick these Mullahs out. We did that before, notably in the late fifties when the CIA fomented a revolution against a radically leftist government that had taken power and reinstalled the Shah.

Any way you look at it this is an historic moment in history and, if handled correctly, we could see a major realignment in the region and by extension the world.

If we don't let Democrats and Deep State RINO internationalists screw it up.

4 Iran believes they are destined to rule the Muslim world one way or another and will do anything within their power to do it. One of those things is to try to rebuild their nuclear capabilities, with or without help (I read that Pakistan may help them). Israel and the U.S. really should keep hammering their nuke plants as often as is necessary to make sure they can't rebuild.

5 Dana I agree. They aren't going to ever sttop trying. They truly believe they are the chosen nation to bring the 12th Imam out of that well he fell down and lead the battle of Armageddon. They need nuclear weapons for that.

As for them getting them from Pakistan I suspect not; Pakistan is 90% Sunni and I rather suspect they detest the Shia Iranians. It was bad enough for Iran and Pakistan to bomb each-other last year, in fact.

Of course the Pakistani may give schematics to building a nuclear bomb but Iran doesn't need that; that's the easy part when building a bomb. Iran had been working on an implosion trigger to reduce the weight of it's nuclear weapons so it could be used on missiles, which says they have the relatively simple gun-style trigger employed by Pakistan (and used in Fat Man). Unless Pakistan gives them enriched uranium or plutonium they won't really have much to offer, and I suspect they aren't going to give out such material when they may want it for themselves in case of war with India. Especially to a country that they almost went to war with last year.
