Re: What part of "Israel has 200-400 nuclear weapons" don't they understand?
Iran never said they'd nuke Israel; they didn't even say they'd wage a direct war on them. They said Israel wouldn't be around in 25 years. A LOT of people are getting sick of Israel's ultra right wing nonsense. They are surrounded by a lot of potential jihadists who they piss off regularly, they annoy a lot of their own citizens as well as a lot of their formerly staunch supporters. They will die of right wing rot (sort of like us) way before Iran needs to nuke them. "Religion, n.

Khamenei's Tweet in question.
https://twitter.com/khamenei_ir/status/641520641724780544 It seems pretty clear to me in context that it's a response from comments by the government of Israel, not a general comment about the country. Of course, Twitter doesn't exist to provide communication of complex ideas, so ... :-/ Bibi is 65. In 25 years he would be 90. I don't know if an English translation of the speech which was the source of the tweet is easily available - I haven't looked. (Don't read the follow-ups.) FWIW. Cheers, Scott. |
