Iranian Foreign Minister: US Can't Afford War with Iran

He means afford, as in money.

Foreign Minister Manouchehr Mottaki said in a news conference at the UN that the United States is not in a position to attack his country because Washington cannot afford another costly war in the region.

It seems they assigned a crack team of accountants to assess our ability to pay for it.

"Our analysis is clear," he said. "U.S. is not in a position to impose another war in our region against their taxpayers."

O RILY?

He also outlined their strategy for retaliating to a US attack.

Asked how Iran would retaliate, he said: "The relevant people at that appropriate time will explain to their public opinion."

That sounds pretty severe.

I don't know who these guys are but I want em to do my taxes next year.
