Iran is believed now to be planning to relax the intensity of its threatened 'devastating'* revenge for the fatal US drone strike against Iran's General Qassem Soleimani, after the deaths of 232 people. Following two ballistic missile strikes against US bases in Iran (which killed no-one), the crushing to death of 56 Iranian mourners at Qassem Soleimani's funeral and the deaths of 176 passengers in an airliner crash in Iran, Iran's leaders said 'Enough is enough. Too many people have died. We hope the Satanic American imperialist warmongers have now learned their lesson'.
[* Some of the more colourful Iranian threats were vastly more hyperbolic, threatening - as a minimum - intense, prolonged and widespread devastation of American interests and personnel around the world. And it was this vividly-expressed, near-hysterical but highly articulate rhetoric which I wished to mock.
Unfortunately and frustratingly, despite spending some time Googling, I cannot now find any reports or transcripts of these gloriously colourful, OTT threats. Can other readers find and contribute any of these, please?]
