Ayatollah: Iran Anniversary 'Punch' Will Stun West
Supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei said on Monday that Iran is set to deliver a "punch" that will stun world powers during this week's 31st anniversary of the Islamic revolution.
"The Iranian nation, with its unity and God's grace, will punch the arrogance (Western powers) on the 22nd of Bahman (February 11) in a way that will leave them stunned," Khamenei, who is also Iran's commander-in-chief, told a gathering of air force personnel.
The country's top cleric was marking the occasion when Iran's air force gave its support to revolutionary leader Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini, a key event which led to the toppling of the US-backed shah on February 11, 1979.
His comments came as Iran said it would begin to produce higher enriched uranium from Tuesday, in defiance of Western powers trying to ensure the country's nuclear drive is peaceful.

They will test their first nuke in Tel Aviv and Hussein Obama will complain to the UN.

Well - we're waiting ?????? The world thinks you are a joke. We will free your poeple eventually and you and your clowns will be gone. Trials by the people sound like a very good idea to me !!! They are going to wrap you up in bacon....

Iran says they're going to shock the world tomorrow--2/11/10. Has anyone else noticed that the number sequences 9-11-01 and 2-11-10 both add up to 21? Scary, huh?
Tomorrow is the anniversary of their Islamic Revolution. The purpose of that revolution--to overthrow or conquer the Infidel. Anyone think that their recent test firings of so many missiles and rockets has been just for show?
I'm guessing that they're going to at least TRY to drop a nuke or maybe a dirty bomb on someone they consider to be the Infidel tomorrow. Hope Israel's ready to shoot it down...

Iran is nothing.......they only have one processing plant for oil, almost all they have has to be shipped out and returned......so all we have to do is let Israel take out that processing plant, they are crippled.....everyone knows the WH won't do nothing to their "brother"...........it's a shame when America is brought down by a so called American in the WH, and we look to israel to protect us.

If they do something really stupid, Iran could be a sheet of glass by the 12th of Feb.
A. Capone
Isn't it wonderful to have a religious nut in charge of a country?
He can justify all his deeds as God's will.
When will we ever learn?
Speaking up
I believe Joe's prognostication will come true - Iran will test a weapon on this date...of course it will have the same sort of impact as the two turtles and worms had - because it will be a dud. Then the government will of course be asking for our help in defusing it - but whatda blow it'll be.

The Islamic Republic of Iran will still be a failed state on February 11th.

110--It wouldnt cost as much if we just lauched one over. There would be no troop cost. Would that make you feel better? Your right Freedom does cost, it always has. When we forget about how we have freedom, the cost for freedom is better than the cost of wasted stimulis and pork spending. The Government is HERE to protect us. My tax dollars to keep us safe and FREE is fine with me. It's not fine to spend on special interest and pork. Spend Freedom =YES.

Millions of Americans, doing their small but significant part in the governance of our nation, are in the process of ending years of “Minority Rule” by the most liberal, humanistic, five percent of our population. Great job….keep it up….give God the Glory.
We must accept the facts a deal with them:
Must-See Video by Former Muslim & Black Pastor - Added 2/3/10
(1) There is a battle taking place around the world and it amounts to the SLAVERY of Islam vs. the Freedom of Christianity. The USA being the base and stronghold of Christian Freedom.
(2) Islam will not coexist in Christian America. Islam cannot accept our Constitution, our Rights, our Freedoms, including Freedom of Religion. If America falls, the world falls. And they know it.
(3) Obama is not a friend to Christians nor American traditions. He does not see the USA as deserving of world leadership.
(4) Obama is a Narcissist, a racist, a Socialist. He respects Dictators.
(5) As seen in his “State of the Union” - he loathes our Constitution and the Supreme Court. He has stated that in his own words in audio and video viewable at www.ameritianity.com.
(6) We are witnessing a setback for Socialism because “THE PEOPLE” have awakened
(7) The Role of Religion - Now we need to remove the Tax Threat from the IRS against ministers speaking the truth from the pulpit in the same way that the Supreme Court has said the Right to Free Speech does not stop a the front door of Corporations.
(8) Obama wants to control where the power lies in America. The power lies where the wealth is. He wants the POWER to lie in the Unions (now own 2 car companies) and the Federal Govt.
(9) Haiti - look where the AID is coming from, the CAPITALIST NATIONS
(10) Healthcare - WILL REMAIN PRIVATE
(11) Waterboarding & Freedom
"In the same way, let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in heaven." Matthew 5:16 (NIV)

Only have a minute-what day do they consider Feb 11th? THEIR Feb 11th, which is OUR Feb 10th or is it OUR Feb 11th-THEIR Feb 12th?? I know Feb 11th is day after tomorrow but it is tomorrow for them...I filled my gas tank just in case. Take care all.

When the enemies of Israel make NOISE, Israelis eat and sleep. When our enemies grow quiet, Israelis ready for war.

110 pct ; Peaceloving attitudes are best exercised when ones' borders are SECURE and your enemies are scared as hell of you. World/human history 101, 102, 103...and yes, 110.
110pct
So tell us, exactly how scared are these extremist loonies after 8 years of bombing? We just need to bomb them more, so they're even more scared-er-er? Sorry, but sending an army to blow up some other country will never prevent one man from blowing up his wanker...we can't ever get them all...so what's the real solution?
JustinCase
Atheism? Freedom? Education? All of the above?
American Lady
I may be wrong here but I don't believe anyone (other networks/news outlets) have brought this issue of Iran's threat to the West to the attention of the American people.

Dont worry Obie will WAH WAH to the UN and the net result will be Iranian taught in the schools if it were up to them. 2010,2012

YOU WILL GET NUKED AND WIPED FROM THE FACE OF THE EARTH!
sayitisntso
Bizarre , how these evolutionary failures have the power to threaten the well being of so many people. Obama's anti-Isreal attitude empowers these evil murderers. He better reach down and find some b@lls. We will be fighting these people for the rest of our lives.
MKM130
Wake up. we have been fighting Islam since Mohammad invented it out of thin air in the 7th Century. You are right. We will be fighting them until the end of time. It just seems no one really understands that.

With a threat like that, our military should totally surround this third world POS country and wait and see what happens on that day. If anything does, we should take out one of their cities no questions asked. Of course we have no one with the balls to actually stop these people but that would. And if it happened again, take out another and another and another until they are gone. Problem solved.
J White
The time for diplomacy with Iran seems to be at an end. Now is the time for Iran to feel the pain of a U.S. Military strike. Of course, this will never happen with the pantie-waist in the White House. Methinks that Israel will have a "22nd of Bahman" gift for the turbin-heads. Complete with mushroom cloud..........

...and we're going to pull that money out of which orifice? Who here would be in favor of a new war tax? You know, so we can pay as we crusade? Thought so...empty talk once again - maybe y'all do realize now that wars cost money and apparently deficits do matter?

For once, I would like to hear one of our heads of state to say, " We have a score to settle with Iran". Do I hear any chicken little Democrats willing to say this? Perhaps you would like to console with Jimmy Carter first.

Why haven't we invaded them and beat the h ell out of them already while we have the men and the equipment over there to do it with. Everyone knows that as soon as the O brings the boys home we'll have to send them right back out. The Grand Salami or whatever he's called can go ahead and try to "punch" us. The US will send you and your ilk on a magic carpet ride.
