We live in a world filled with threats. Personal threats, geopolitical threats, they are all around. Iran is threatening to strike Israel and, apparently, the preparations are indeed underway in Iraq and elsewhere. This, alone, proves the regime’s cowardice – it can’t strike from Iran directly but hides behind the Iraqi skirt. These regimes seem to mostly bark and rarely bite. Just talk, talk, talk, but, below all the bombastic propaganda, they know what their capabilities are and how inferior they are to Israel, and others. Then again, Iran is losing face and its ”dear leader” can’t pretend nothing is going on, so a strike on Israel is likely.

Still, there’s a chance the preparations to strike Israel are just for show, smoke and mirrors to make you look in one direction when real action is going on........
