A senior commander of Iran's powerful Revolutionary Guard says the country will target NATO's missile defense shield in Turkey if the U.S.¬ or Israel attacks the Islamic Republic.

Gen. Amir Ali Hajizadeh, the head of the Guards' aerospace division, is quoted by the semiofficial Mehr news agency as saying the warning is part of a new defense strategy to counter what it sees as an increase in threats from the U.S.¬ and Israel.

Things are heating up in the Middle East. Where's our part-time President Obama?

And what will they do if the U.S. or Israel DO NOT attack the Islamic Republic? Nuke them later, with the rest of the "western" world?

Much as I would like to see Iamadinnerjacket and company transported to another universe it might be a good idea to look at the map. Several nuclear bombs going off in Iran would result in a rather large amount of fallout going down wind. Again, Iamadinnerjacket in a glowing glass case would be nice but...who lives down wind?

Judging from the prevailing winds of the region, Iraq.

Yes and what lies down wind from Iraq that we need?

How about just using all the warheads on one Trident Missle Submarine and make the bulk of our Islamic Radical nut cases just disappear into thin (very thin) air?

Boo, hissy, boo. Another veiled threat from Persia. Time for Stuxnet 3. Maybe a third virus plaguing the Iranian nuclear programme would be the charm. :)

Well, the other option is to apply their "flat earth theory" in context. Push them off the outer edge of the map, then they can fall into a Black Hole. :)

Either one or other works. If they fall into the vortex of the Black Hole, one doesn't have to worry about seeing them again. :)

Iran and it's "leaders" must want to turn their nation to glass. This cannot be a good thing.
