Utterly pointless.

THe media is preparing us for Iran invasion. First they have to tell us lots of stories of the bad things that Iran does, then when the US attacks, people will think it's deserved. Let's see how long this post lasts.

At least there wasn't any violence. There is still a lot of territory to drill in.
Isn't this what Saddam did to Kuwait? < :-)

The religion of Oil will drag the US into a war with Iran. Another Gulf of Tonkin no doubt!! The evil empire of the United States of the World will concoct a story to justify a war but we all know no oil will be found.

Brilliant! Another Iran-Iraq war. Only now, the Iraqis can send the Americans stooges up front....

This is why it's a "disputed border" and why "Possession is Nine-Tenths of the Law."

A curious and interesting story.
Who is really running Iran, if anyone? Was this seizure operation undertaken on directions from the political leadership in Tehran, or does it signify an ever-increasing division between the political leaders and the forces running the Revolutionary Guard? Or could it represent a split within the Guard itself?
If nothing else, this action by the Iranians appears to suggest a system that is slowly unraveling.

That quote, like the vacant stream of unconsciousness in the form of questions would seem to indicate zero knowledge of the topic at hand. Far from unraveling the country is slowly closing ranks against oppressors from outside. Stomp on the tiger's tail, I dare you!
