In order to understand what those running Iran intend to do, it is important to put yourself in their shoes. If someone was planning to kill you, how far would you go to save your own life? For many people, there isn’t anything that would be off the table in such a scenario. When it is a matter of life or death, what really matters to you becomes very clear. For the nuts that are in control of Iran, survival is everything. They have already shown that they will gun down tens of thousands of their own citizens in order to ensure the survival of the regime. Now a major U.S. military operation is looming, and the Iranians fully understand that the coming conflict is for all the marbles. When the missiles start flying, there is nothing that they won’t be willing to do to protect themselves.

Accordingto the Wall Street Journal, President Trump is now considering an initial series of military strikes on Iran which would be designed to force it to agree to his demands. If that didn’t work, it would be followed by “a broad campaign against regime facilities—potentially aimed at toppling the Tehran regime”…

President Trump is weighing an initial limited military strike on Iran to force it to meet his demands for a nuclear deal, a first step that would be designed to pressure Tehran into an agreement but fall short of a full-scale attack that could inspire a major retaliation.

The opening assault, which if authorized could come within days, would target a few military or government sites, people familiar with the matter said. If Iran still refused to comply with Trump’s directive to end its nuclear enrichment, the U.S. would respond with a broad campaign against regime facilities—potentially aimed at toppling the Tehran regime.

The Iranians have already pledged to respond to even a limited strike with tremendous force.

In fact, the Iraniansjust sent a letterto UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres warning that all bases, facilities and military assets of the enemy will be legitimate targets if war breaks out…

Iran told UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres on Thursday that Tehran will consider bases, facilities, and assets of the “hostile force” in the region as legitimate targets if it faces military aggression.

US President Donald Trump’s rhetoric towards Iran “signals a real risk of military aggression,” Iran’s permanent mission to the United Nations said in the letter, adding that Iran did not want a war.
