IRAN SPIRALS DOWN, DOWN, DOWN, MICHAEL LEDEEN WRITES:

General Baqeri has a multi-front war to supervise.  It won’t be easy. All those pundits who warned us that the billions from the No Deal Deal would stabilize the regime will have to rethink, it seems.  Most of the money goes into the accounts of the corrupt leaders.  Some of it goes for Russian weapons.  But the people hate this hollow regime more than ever, and they have every good reason for that.  It’s a failed regime whose stability is in considerable doubt.  Even the Obama Administration may not be able to save it.

And the administration whose motto is “Don’t do stupid shit”* wants to sell them a new fleet of Boeing jumbo jets as potential troop transports and guided missiles. What could go wrong?

* No, really.
