+1 for highlighting lack of journalistic integrity at Fox News. -1 for making a statement, that could quite happily be broadcast by Fox News ;)

  i.e. speculative conjecture, and a generalisation based on cultural assumptions: I can quite easily believe Teheran lacks the technical knowhow to defend themselves. (plus Teheran is a city and a region, not a nation state - it would have made more sense to talk about Iran) EDIT; I surrender, I saw the Fox logo, it's now very clear -> 'fair and balanced' ;)

    Using the name of a capital city as shorthand for a central government is very common and accepted

      Sorry, I didn't realise. Previously, I'd only heard this kind of reference made in 1950s war films. Perhaps I'm wrong, I but I think it's foolish to dismiss a country's capabilities without firm evidence. Much of the news media picks up on vague themes, and often makes assumptions based on its own country's perceived superiority. In my opinion, there's no good reason to duplicate their error.
