Few will raise any objections, as they're all doped up out of their minds and will not get in the way. |

The Iranian defence ministry offered no information on who it suspected carried out the attack, which came as a refinery fire separately broke out in the country’s north-west and a 5.9-magnitude earthquake struck nearby, killing three people. Tehran has been targeted by suspected Israeli drone strikes amid a shadow war with its Middle Eastern rival as its nuclear deal with world powers collapsed. Meanwhile, tensions remain high with neighbouring Azerbaijan after a gunman attacked that country’s embassy in Tehran, killing its security chief and wounding two others. Details on the Isfahan attack, which happened at about 11.30pm on Saturday, remained scarce. A defence ministry statement described three drones being launched at the facility, with two of them successfully shot down. A third apparently struck the building, causing “minor damage” to its roof and wounding no one, the ministry said. Iranian state television’s English-language arm, Press TV, aired mobile phone video apparently showing the moment the drone struck along the busy Imam Khomeini expressway that heads north-west out of Isfahan, one of several routes to the holy city of Qom and Tehran, Iran’s capital. A small crowd gathered, drawn by anti-aircraft fire, watching as an explosion and sparks struck a dark building. “Oh my God! That was a drone, wasn’t it?” the man filming shouts. “Yeah, it was a drone.” The bystanders fled after the attack. That footage of the strike, as well as footage of the aftermath analyzed by the Associated Press, corresponded to a site on Minoo Street in north-western Isfahan near a shopping centre. Iranian defence and nuclear sites increasingly find themselves surrounded by commercial properties and residential neighbourhoods as the country’s cities expand. Some locations remain opaque about what they produce, with only a sign bearing a defence ministry or paramilitary Revolutionary Guard logo. The defence ministry described the site as a “workshop” without elaborating on what it made. Isfahan, 215 miles south of Tehran, is home to both a large airbase built for its fleet of American-made F-14 fighter jets and its nuclear fuel research and production centre.

You don't honestly believe that nuclear war was ever going to be broadcasted on CNN or something, like it was portrayed in The Day After? Reality is never like it's portrayed in Hollywood movies. No one is going to tell you to duck and cover when nukes start flying, because you'll already be dead by then (you can't outrun ICBM already in flight, and everybody who matters knows that). You just won't know that you're already dead, and when one detonates right above your head, you won't have enough time to even realize what's just happened before you're turned into ashes, so... Yes, everybody in power -- and their TV and radio stations -- are going to keep their mouths shut, run for their bunkers, and leave your crispy corpse to rot in the sun. It's when they're silent (like they are right now) that you know something extremely dangerous is happening. |
