Former Pentagon Analyst: Iran Regime's Threats Reveal Its "Anxiety"
(Algemeiner) Ruthie Blum - Former Pentagon analyst Harold Rhode, an expert on Islamic culture, said Monday that continued Iranian public threats are "an indication of anxiety." "The last thing the regime wants or can afford is for the Iranian people to perceive it as weak, because if the Iranian government appears weak in the eyes of the Iranian people - as history has repeatedly shown - they will take matters into their own hands and denounce their leaders." Sunday's Iranian ballistic missile test is an example of the regime's attempt to exhibit strength. "They know that if they provoke Trump and he escalates the situation, they're in real trouble, because they're no match for America."
