I hope Iran settles the score directly with tRump and not Americans. He is the direct source of our current problems with Iran so he is the one who should reap what he has sown. If they took out tRump I would celebrate for a year.

Why not just draw targets on the places you want Iran to hit?
I see people in threads talking as if they have no idea how powerful Iran's military is and where this can go. Doh! I guess they think it is some sort of backwoods postage stamp. Sheesh!!! That's unnerving. Turn it into a parking lot? Oh, gosh.
