In line with my thinking....The only thing I can think of, that Iran can do, which will be dramatic enough to live up to this (newly created) hype, would be a nuclear test - confirming that they now have a bomb.

I just can't imagine that they would telegraph a terrorist act, or an act of war. That would make no sense at all.

A successful nuke test makes the most sense to me. And that would be shocking indeed --- and --- take us MUCH closer to the end times events leading into the Trib...

We'll see

Seems it would be more than a "test" to stun the west, don't you think?

I don't think we'd be "stunned" by a test.

A nuclear test would shake the entire world...do you remember when Pakistan did theirs? It almost sent that region into war with India. Then NK did theirs, while we had suspicions they'd been working on weapons, we did not know they had the ability to actually build and detonate one. Their first was a sizzle, however...the second was a full blown bonafide test and verified-if they've sent their technology to Iran, and Iran tests, it changes everything. Right now, "they" don't even want to even slap Iran's hand...with a nuclear test under their belt...the world is not going to push Iran and upset the "apple cart" and will put all world powers bearing down on Israel so the world doesn't get blown up. I believe a test would significantly turn the tables in Iran's favor, not ours or Israels. The world would INSIST Israel not carry out any military action against Iran. Look at how Kim JungIl is treated...this WOULD be a crossing of the red line and a crossing of the rubicon. Now that our fearless, spineless world leaders have dilly dallied and played footsie under the table since last summer, giving Iran TWO dealines and still we've done nothing...a nuclear test would be big...AND explains why they live to come in Gog/Magog and why a regime change didn't happen.
