There are reports that Muslim terrorists, proxies for the Iranian Mullahs, are planning symbolic attacks in this country tomorrow, the 4th of July. I hope that they understand that would be the last straw for all but the most craven leftists of our population.
Our very precise attacks on the Iranian nuclear facilities were planned to avoid, as much as humanly possible, any Iranian civilian casualties. We didn’t even target their military installations, although we certainly could have done so.
Our ally Israel did, of course, but only to take out their capability to threaten our B-2s and escort aircraft during our raid, as well as eliminate as many missiles as possible that were being fired indiscriminately at Israel, most hitting civilian targets.
After hearing chants of “Death to America” for over forty years, and seeing Iran become the leading supporter and exporter of terrorism against us and others, supplying the IED devices that killed and maimed thousands of members of our military, Trump finally said, “Enough!”
What happened to their nuclear sites was just a small sample of what we are capable of doing if further provoked. The Mullahs of the Shia sect of Islam preach the most virulent and violent version of that religion. They believe that through violence and war on all non-Muslim “Infidels”, they can bring on the return of the ”Twelfth Imam”, who will lead his followers into Paradise.
Since the formation of the Iranian Islamic Republic in 1979, the Mullahs have ruled with an iron hand over their people. Their religious police make the Nazi Gestapo and the Soviet KGB look pale by comparison. Women are treated like chattel, and can be beaten, mutilated, and even blinded if they are perceived not to be covering their hair properly.
Unfortunately, we could have helped an enlightened populous uprising against the Iranian regime during the administration of Barack Obama. He chose not to, and the movement was crushed. Iran has a very young population. It is estimated that over fifty percent of the Iranians are under thirty years of age. There is a great deal of evidence that they would like to end Theocracy if they could.
Should any serious attacks by Iranian sleeper cells occur in this country tomorrow or in the future, I believe we should publicly tell the Iranian Mullahs that they must change their ways, free their citizens, and disband their terrorist activities, or we will, as the saying goes “Bomb them into the Stone Age.” from afar.
We could, if we wished, make Iran:
“Flat, Black, and Glow in the Dark!”
Mr. James.
I don't believe that this threat is a "hobgoblin." The "Twelvers" are very real and very dangerous. Suni Muslims have feared these fanatics since they first emerged in the eighth century. There is no doubt that sleeper cells crossed our southern border during the Biden administration's "Open Border" policies were implemented in 2021. The only question is where they are, and how many. My personal greatest fear is the use of shoulder-fired missiles against airliners. There is virtually no current defense against those. If a couple of airliners are shot down on approach or departure, the panic that will, not may, ensue will shut down our air transport system. Equally dangerous is an attack on our very fragile electrical grid. To see what might happen then, you might enjoy reading my novel "The Water Lily Warriors."
Be vigilant, check 6 often, but by all means never forget:
"The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by an endless series of hobgoblins, most of them imaginary." - H.L. Mencken
