US terrorism advisory over Iran threat

 Blaze:

The Department of Homeland Security issued a national terrorism advisory bulletin on Sunday warning that Iran-linked extremists might seek to execute retaliatory attacks on American soil in the wake of the U.S. B-2 bombings of Iranian nuclear sites.

The previous U.S. administration's failure to secure the southern border, its cover-up of the rise in terrorism-linked migrants, and its release of hundreds of Iranian nationals into the homeland altogether appear to have helped create the environment in which such threats are viable.

Masoud Pezeshkian, the president of Iran, told French President Emmanuel Macron in a call on Sunday, "The U.S. has attacked us; what would you do in such a situation? Naturally, they must ­receive a response to their aggression."

The Iranian regime apparently intends to respond to the American bombings of the nuclear facilities at Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan in part by closing the Strait of Hormuz, which would disrupt global oil and gas supplies. According to Iranian state media, the Shiite nation's parliament agreed on Sunday to take this consequential step, but the final decision rests with Iran's national security council.

The Trump administration indicated that the decision to close down the shipping lane, which roughly 20% of the world's oil and gas transits, would be a "suicidal move."

The Iranian regime, designated by the U.S. as a state sponsor of terrorism 40 years ago, might entertain other suicidal forms of retaliation.

The US should not underestimate Iran's ability to screw things up.  Iran is not ruled by intelligent people for the most part.  The bombing of Iranian nuclear facilities was intended to reduce the threat of an Iranian nuclear attack.  The bombing may not stop Iran from a terrorist attack by other means.
