So? If I was the Iranians, I would sure as hell be arming myself as well as I possibly could right now and demonstrating my capability to return fire effectively, having been labelled as part of an "Axis of Evil" and having been threatened by a superpower which has recently launched an unprovoked war against the country right next to me. Damn right I would.

What are you complaining about, Bearded Bruce? Would you prefer that they just unilaterally disarm, lie down and die, surrender now, and let the Americans come in and start building McDonald's franchises on every street corner?
