For the first time in History, the Iranians have placed the black flag over the Imam Reza Shrine in Khorasan.

From the article:
"This is not a standard flag; it resonates deeply with Islamic prophecy, echoing a Hadith about Khorasan."
At approximately the same time as the raising of the flag, an official tweet from the Iranian embassy in Syria said "Time is up" in Hebrew.
A couple important things to note, this shrine is IN Khorasan and is a mosque that Mohammed prophecied would be a shrine of pilgrimage. (And Shi'i do make pilgrimage to this shrine)
Khorasan in particular is also the place where it is said Imam Mahdi will be from when he engages in the final wars...
Ahadith says:
تَخْرُجُ مِنْ خُرَاسَانَ رَايَاتٌ سُودٌ لَا يَرُدُّهَا شَيْءٌ حَتَّى تُنْصَبَ بِإِيلِيَاءَ
"Black standards will come from Khorasan, nothing shall turn them back until they are planted in Jerusalem."

Another tradition attributed to Thawban in which Mohammed said:
يَقْتَتِلُ عِنْدَ كَنْزِكُمْ ثَلاَثَةٌ كُلُّهُمُ ابْنُ خَلِيفَةٍ ثُمَّ لاَ يَصِيرُ إِلَى وَاحِدٍ مِنْهُمْ ثُمَّ تَطْلُعُ الرَّايَاتُ السُّودُ مِنْ قِبَلِ الْمَشْرِقِ فَيَقْتُلُونَكُمْ قَتْلاً لَمْ يُقْتَلْهُ قَوْمٌ
Three will fight one another for your treasure, each one of them the son of a caliph, but none of them will gain it. Then the black banners will come from the east, and they will kill you in an unprecedented manner.
Then he said:
فَإِذَا رَأَيْتُمُوهُ فَبَايِعُوهُ وَلَوْ حَبْوًا عَلَى الثَّلْجِ فَإِنَّهُ خَلِيفَةُ اللَّهِ الْمَهْدِيُّ
"When you see them, then pledge your allegiance to them even if you have to crawl over the snow, for that is the caliph of Allah, Al-Mahdi."

Even the Muslim apologists note the Khorasan symbolism and I personally see this as a call from Iran to arms.
I think everyone sees it the same way as western Embassies all over the middle east are under attack at this present moment.
In Turkey the American Embassy and military base are under attack. (Being NATO allies is a joke, we should have left NATO when Turkey joined). In Jordan the Israeli Embassy is under attack, In Iraq the US embassy is under attack, and also the French and British Embassies are all under attack in Lebanon.

I believe the black flag and the tweet from the Syrian embassy was a particular call to attack embassies, and people listened.
I believe Iran is 100% in it at this point, if they weren't in it from the start. They have a plan in place, and we would be wise to see it as a larger threat than we currently might imagine it to be.
