UPDATE: I wrote this blog before Iran shot down flight 752 with the loss of 176 souls. As I had predicted, no retaliation has been taken by Iran against the Unite States, nor will there be. Those demanding an inquiry can have mine free of charge: 'Iran deliberately shot down flight 752 killing all on board mistakenly believing that it was incoming ordinance' Full Stop.
AND THAT IS PRECISELY THAT... IT WILL DO NOTHING.
I am blogging today of course about America's killing of Iran's top general in charge of the infamous Revolutionary Guards' external operations. Blown to bits late this week by missiles fired from an over-head Drone.
But if one listened to the world's henny penny media, its leftist politicians and / or its progressives, you'd be left with the impression that massive retaliation by Iran is on its way.
It is not of course, indeed Iran knows full well that in an out and out confrontation with the US, it would come out a very poor second. Indeed, it would have the potential to bring about the end to the Ayatollahs' Rule. And its main benefactor, Putin's Russia, has no stomach to see America engaged in such a fashion.
And what exactly is Iran crying about anyway? Did it not recently wipe-out half of Saudi Arabia's oil fields and nothing was done to them in retaliation.
There is though one thing that the Progressives are saying which I agree with...that America and its allies need to get out of these Muslim based countries. I have said for some time that the only solution here is to circle off these countries from the rest of the world. If they are so determined to live in the middle ages ...well let's help them along. That of course is my wish not that of the Progressives but again where we share approach is on the desire to see the West get out. Boots on the ground just get mired in the mud.
As I See It...
