How about equal analysis of what comes out of the mouths of Iranian leaders? Threatening in couched language how the Zionist regime will be wiped off
the map.
Israel does not want to attack Iran, but it doesn't want the threat of imminent extermination looming over them either.
Iran has to sabre rattle, it hasn't got much other leverage. It's econonmy is in freefall and the people aren't happy. Money and the remaining
brainpower are fleeing the country at an alarming rate. It on a neverending spending spree bankrolling the likes of Hamas and Hezbollah as proxies,
buying arms and nuclear technology, and subsidizing rogue state allies as far as South America. All this was budgeted at oil $100 a barrel, when the
price is less than half that.
In 30 years it's no closer to the mullahs promised international Islamic Revolution. The Muslim world has not rallied around them, only those hoping
for a paycheck.
Were it to destroy Israel and exterminate every Jew in the Middle East, it's problems would still be the same as they are today. A tragically failed
state thrashing in desperation.
