Eh, the IRGC isn't going to blow themselves and their equipment up. That's what Shi'ite militias in Iraq are for.

Well, at least they managed to hit a military target this time.

 

Babysteps.

 

That April post had a short shelf life.

On Tuesday, the Washington Post reported that Israel was behind a cyberattack that seriously disrupted operations in the Bandar Abbas port in southern Iran. This appeared to be a retaliation that followed an earlier attack on Israel’s water infrastructure, which was attributed to Iran.

Iran issues arrest warrant for Trump that Interpol rejects
 

Iran has issued an arrest warrant and asked Interpol for help in detaining President Donald Trump and dozens of others it believes carried out the U.S. drone strike that killed a top Iranian general in Baghdad, a local prosecutor reportedly said Monday.
 

Interpol later said it wouldn’t consider Iran’s request, meaning Trump faces no danger of arrest. However, the charges underscore the heightened tensions between Iran and the United States since Trump unilaterally withdrew America from Tehran’s nuclear deal with world powers.
 

Tehran prosecutor Ali Alqasimehr said Trump and 35 others whom Iran accuses of involvement in the Jan. 3 strike that killed Gen. Qassem Soleimani in Baghdad face “murder and terrorism charges,” the state-run IRNA news agency reported.

Pretty sure that Trump faced no danger of arrest even if they had decided to consider the request...

I'm sure they're just practicing for a 4th of July white supremacist rally fireworks display.

 

 

Hopefully they don't shoot any more of their own planes down...

 

...that is always a little embarrassing.

A darn shame.

A fire and an explosion struck a building above Iran’s underground Natanz nuclear enrichment facility early on Thursday, a site that U.S.-based analysts identified as a new centrifuge production plant.

The Atomic Energy Organization of Iran sought to downplay the fire, calling it an “incident” that only affected an under-construction “industrial shed,” spokesman Behrouz Kamalvandi said. However, both Kamalvandi and Iranian nuclear chief Ali Akbar Salehi rushed after the fire to Natanz, which has been targeted in sabotage campaigns in the past.

Kamalvandi did not identify what damaged the building, though Natanz governor Ramazanali Ferdowsi said a “fire” struck the site, according to a report by the semiofficial Tasnim news agency.
