Really...what's it to ya? Why the bluster? How many ways do you want to lose? I'm counting two so far.
Been a while since the U.S. whooped ass...it seems that these days they just wanna drag things out to make the profiteers richer. Good thing there's always a malleable public to wave the flag and send their kids along as cannon fodder.
Myself? Soon as I saw the report, I said cui bono. Doesn't take much to figure that one out.

Whether it's people blowing themselves up or protesting fraudulent election results, they're just refusing to allow their people to see the divisions in their own society.
With such an oppressive regime, they have to blame an outside source for anything within their own nation, otherwise it'll allow people to see that there are divides and differences in opinion within that nation. The main issue is that they don't want their people to see that the majority there do not support the regime any more.
It's all about control. I doubt they'll do anything in actuality. They'll just make a few comments to divert attention, and then it'll be forgotten.
It's actually very similar to what is happening in the US.

Sky News is hardly a disinfo outlet.

That's a Paul Bunyan reference?
Just, me son, is very subjective, and it does not necessarily coincide with American economic interests.
And a self edit to note that the only country, so far, to rain nukes is the USA.
Which is why American drumbeats are scary, rather than simply tiresome.
"Rain nukes" ya and i am sure there was absolutley no reason for that......... your dribble is tiresome.

Honestly you should be far more worried of Pakistan than Iran. They have constantly had skirmishes with India and even war and so much animosity over disputed region... and both countries have nukes.
-BUT-
whats there been since Pakistan went nuclear? Now both sides are afraid to go to war - because they know the possibilities.
I think it is possibly the best thing for Iran, a 'M.A.D.' deterrent for war. Best thing maybe short of all countries not allowed nukes.
If Iran nuked ANYTHING they would be wiped off the earth so fast. They have more to gain from deterrent than offensive capabilities.
Besides, their one nuke gone and they would be soooo screwed. I dont think they can afford to use them, just my 2 cents
