re: #299 Sergey Romanov

BTW, I discard the argument that the Iranian powers-that-be are not like the Soviets in caring for their children. Their anti-Western and anti-Israel rhetoric is worse than the Soviet one, but I also think that ultimately they’re not “like” Taliban, if you know what I mean. I think MAD *is* possible with Iran.

They have shown every time we ramp up they respond.

It’s pretty much definitional.
