Don't know if it's true or not, but if it isn't, it should be. Supposedly, one of the Japanese military leaders, or maybe it was the Emperor, I forget, was asked why they din't attack the U.S. immediately after Pearl Harbor? Supposedly, the answer was, "Because there would have been a rifle behind every blade of grass."
Fast foreward to a few year back. When Russia attacked Afghanistan that turned out to be their Viet Nam, and the Russian leaders had a lot more resolve towards winning there that Lame Brain Johnson did in Viet Nam.
I think the first blow was struck when Iran took our embassy people hostage and that jackass peanut farmer wrung his hand and said, "Woe is me." An American embassyis considered to be American soil, just as a Russian embassy would be considered Russian soil.Note that as soon as Ronald Reagan was being sworn in, the hostages were free ond homeward bound.
Guess the old Ayatollah wasn't quite ready to meet Allah yet. I hope his death was a painful one and the place where he now resides is extremely hot.
