and the reason why iran waited so long to bomb the shit out of israel with hundreds of intermediate range ballistic missiles was because they wanted to get the american aircraft carriers out of the region so that they could launch their old ass missiles and have them still hit the target at a high rate, to prove a point a few days before oct. 1st, the only american naval refueling tanker was hit by yemeni (iranian) something or other and the aircraft carrier strike group was forced to retreat and then iran conducted their attack the ayatollah does have ultimate power in iran, certainly when it comes to questions of foreign policy
