Dear Army intelligence: have you seen the hundreds of military equipment, tanks, and thousands of iranian terrorists being assembled in the bekaa valley ready to engage in war?
BTW, any news on the color (yellow) of the KIA used by the iranian terrorist party in the assassination of minister Shatah?
Another final question: Does the iranian terrorist militia pay its mercenaries in gold coins or does it have bank accounts?
Thank you for your courtesy
