I read something yesterday regarding the strike on Saturday that took out the Ayatollah. It said that Mossad had imbedded a dentist that had put a tracking device in the Ayatollah's tooth during some dental work, and that's how they know where he was. I haven't seen that verified so I don't know if it's true or not. But that's some damn 4D chess if true. It also said they had a gastro doc imbedded that was implanting tracking devices that direction too.

Are you sure it was Mossad and not the Gestapo?

Well damn.

In my defense, work isn't allowing me to spend all waking hours of the day on Sixpack these days. The magazine would really be suffering if we gave a shlt about getting out a magazine.

Iran seems to be in the “FO” part of the story.
The thing is, this story is only partly about Iran and China know that.

It's not every day you see 2 strike outs that get scored as wild pitches that allow runs.... That's... special...

Not want Trump wants. He wants the people to rise up and put the exiled Prince back in but that's apparently not going to happen. If I was Trump I would keep mowing them down so no cleric wants it and it throws the country into utter chaos. That may be the best play if you want to put a non radical regime in place.

4 decades of telling the world:
“Death to Israel and US” gets attention.
Surprised it took this long for them to be annihilated.
JFK and Nixon were exiled much faster.

They are pumping out the propaganda, that's for sure, and they are good at it. I'll give them that much. I've seen them (or some pro-Iran media) make the claim that they've hit/sunk the USS Lincoln, they've killed hundreds of US and Israeli troops, they have the USS Arleigh Burke surrounded by their little speed boats, all kinds of crazy stuff. As far as I can tell the only thing they have done is haphazardly lob missiles and drones into surrounding countries with no tactical strategy whatsoever. Sad thing is people actually believe them, and I've seen lots of Americans and Westerners basically hoping we fail miserably. It's pretty sad.

Not likely while the mullahs are still alive. Any and all in their revolutionary guard believes we are Satan

They have a strategy. It's about the only one open to them. They are going to keep lobbing missiles and drones at the Gulf States, and possibly beyond, in order to get the victims to put pressure on Trump to stop bombing them. It has worked before so they think it will work again. We will see.

I wonder just how many missiles and drones they have? Considering the number that has hit something, the ones that have been intercepted and the ones that have been destroyed before they were even launched, at some point they'll have to start getting pretty damn low on ammo.

The estimates I've seen said they had somewhere around 3000 missiles and many thousand drones. I saw somewhere this morning they have fired around 500 missiles so far. Everyone thought it would be a use it or lose it strategy with their missiles. That appears to have been very wrong. They are using them sparingly and continually to keep the pressure on.

All of this is good but ultimately it is up to the Iranian people to stand up to these despots. We spent trillions of dollars and thousands of US lives to deliver Afghanistan from the Taliban but they were back in control the day after we withdrew.

Because the US has complete air superiority, they know the launching station location every time Iran launches a missile and they blow it up. Iran is very much running low on ammo.

If that was the case they wouldn't be firing any by now. My understanding is it's not that easy. Almost all of their launchers are mobile. We don't always have something in a position to hit them before they have moved and we have lost track of them or they have gone underground. The longer it goes on, the more we will get but it's not going to be a quick thing. That's why we can't quit too soon. I'm afraid we will do just that, again.
