These assholes shove their ability to do whatever they want right in our face, constantly. They make veiled threats and we cower (in this case, we've reduced our Persian Gulf presence).
What we need is a President who's a little bit off his rocker. I'd LOVE to see a press conference where our President looks blankly at the screen containing Amenijidad's face and says, "I'm just gonna let you know that if, you know, you do something fucking stupid like block off the Strait of Hormuz that we're gonna have to, you know, sink every Iranian boat we find. Just sayin'. Oh and if you touch our bases anywhere and you know, kill innocent soldiers and US citizens, we will have to you know, drop a bunker buster into a city of yours for every base you hit. Just to be fair & all... we will draw the names of the cities out of a hat while the planes are airborne. It'll be like a game, we can call it the Iranian Bombing Lottery. We'll even use one of those big spinning baskets to make it visually pleasing. We can even let the Iranian TV stations broadcast it on a 5 minute delay, so that the cities name we draw has 5 minutes to evacuate. So I hope we're all on the same page when I say if you even fart in the water by the strait, I'm going to bomb the ever-loving shit out of you, ya stupid asshole."
