Iran Communique Orders Its Terrorist Cells to Attack US Embassies In Case of Syria Strike
From @benk84's round-up.
Well see this makes me want to do this, actually. That's not a completely rational response, I guess, but Iran wants to remind us that they're sorely lacking a Attitude Adjustment Airstrike themselves.
The U.S. has intercepted an order from Iran to militants in Iraq to attack the U.S. Embassy and other American interests in Baghdad in the event of a strike on Syria, officials said, amid an expanding array of reprisal threats across the region.
...
The Iranian message, intercepted in recent days, came from Qasem Soleimani, the head of Revolutionary Guards' Qods Force, and went to Iranian-supported Shiite militia groups in Iraq, according to U.S. officials.
Oh, and the Nobel Peace Laureate will address the nation on Tuesday night to explain why we have to go all Them Duke Boys on Syria's ass.
