Quote:I still don't think Iran is stupid enough to blow itself off the face of the earth simply to maybe hit one American city. Maybe. If their missiles are as accurate as North Korea's, I fear more for the wildlife in the Indian Ocean than for the US. IMO, Iran wants a bomb so it has some marginal chance of defending itself against Israel, which inexplicably has 80, should Israel ever choose to become imperialistic in the Middle East.
 

Bingo. Some people want to believe Iran's leadership is suicidal in their hatred of Israel and the U.S., and use non-events like the brief incident with these sailors to stoke the fires of fear. When there is a suicide bombing, it's never the leaders sacrificing their lives. Iran is not going to nuke the nose off their face (or nuke their face) just to show Israel or us who is boss.

 

The irony is their cleric's rhetoric only appeals to the fringe there, and only frightens the fringe here.

If something can corrupt you, you're corrupted already.
