I don't want to be alarmist, but what they seem to be hinting at is dropping a nuke.

IRANIAN STATE MEDIA: "There is a surprise tonight that the world will remember for centuries."
They also posted a video of a hand stroking a nuclear warhead.
Is this real or just an empty threat? A last second bluff?
I think it's probably a bluff. Or maybe it's a half-bluff: Maybe they have built a nuclear weapon but have never tested it and have no idea if it will work or not. And they're threatening to test it tonight on their enemies.
Bonchie:
When a nation led by Islamist lunatics says they are going to launch a nuke, that's not something you can just write off as rhetoric. No doubt, Israeli and American forces are on high alert, and all possible countermeasures are ready to be used.
This does seem to put to bed the idea claimed by isolationists that the entire case against Iran is manufactured and that they had no intention of developing a nuclear weapon. As the vice president, who is the furthest thing from a warhawk, explained on Tuesday, the intelligence they've seen is clear, and even if it weren't, there is no other reasonable explanation for the levels of enrichment Iran has sought and achieved.
I do not understand the near-religious commitment of the Neopaulites to the idea that Iran just wants to be left alone and if we just leave them alone they'll leave us alone. They've been directing terrorist attacks against us for 46 years, and have repeatedly vowed to destroy "The Great Satan."
They also believe that the 12th Mahdi will only arise after Iran proves itself worthy be defeating the West.
Let's pray it doesn't come to that.
