A certain resemblance?
Mike from Kennesaw, GA asks:
Doesn't Iran's foreign minister sound like Iraqi PR guy Baghdad Bob during the 17 days of the Baghdad battle?
"Iran does not think that the Zionist regime [i.e., the U.S. and Israel] is in a condition to engage in such a dangerous venture and they know how severe the possible Iranian response will be to its possible audacity," Mr Mottaki said. "Suffice to say that the Zionist regime, if they attack, will regret it." That message was underscored yesterday by Iran's defence minister who said that any attack on Iran would bring "a crushing response".
They must have a class they all take called Bluster 101.
