In a separate passage, one in which Mr. Trump clearly was following a script rather than freelancing, he said: "We will stop looking to topple regimes and overthrow governments, folks." After wasting "$6 trillion" in Middle East fights, he said, "our goal is stability not chaos."
After the last three presidents, a focus on stability and an America-first realism is long overdue and detente with Russia and Iran as de facto allies in the war on terror might be part of the process.
Dear Iran;
All your base are belong to us.
We look forward to killing you.
-Uncle Sam
Trump is going to have Sooooooo much fun with Iran.
We here at FR are going to really, truly enjoy the show!
Iran, a long time coming for the a$$ kicking you will soon be getting.
They are throwing a temper tantrum.
Idiots don’t realize that if they mess with Israel, they are taking on God as well.
Perhaps someone should refresh their memories of the Six Day War.
We have been told to hate Russia...but Syria has been an ally for 50 years and that war is a civil war. I don't remember France or England imposing on our civil war.
I’m placing bets.
Iran won’t even be a nation that exists in less than 10 years.
Ezekiel 39 says it’ll be firebombed out of existence along with Turkey, Russia, Syria, Libya, Sudan, and Afghanistan.
This is what will happen in that day: When Gog attacks the land of Israel, my hot anger will be aroused, declares the Sovereign Lord. 19 In my zeal and fiery wrath I declare that at that time there shall be a great earthquake in the land of Israel. 20 The fish in the sea, the birds in the sky, the beasts of the field, every creature that moves along the ground, and all the people on the face of the earth will tremble at my presence. The mountains will be overturned, the cliffs will crumble and every wall will fall to the ground. 21 I will summon a sword against Gog on all my mountains, declares the Sovereign Lord. Every man’s sword will be against his brother. 22 I will execute judgment on him with plague and bloodshed; I will pour down torrents of rain, hailstones and burning sulfur on him and on his troops and on the many nations with him. 23 And so I will show my greatness and my holiness, and I will make myself known in the sight of many nations. Then they will know that I am the Lord.’
Stupid
1. It’s not something that has a positive result for the Mullahs or Ayatollah.
2. Not winnable.
3. Shock and Awe with extreme prejudice
That said, there are a lot of business deals riding on this fraud agreement and it will be difficult to navigate the interests of companies here in the U.S., Germany and France.
Bibi,
Please nuke iran.
Basically, all we’d have to do would be take out their gasoline import terminals, and a couple refineries. Iran would sputter to a stop in short order.
It would take a little while, maybe a year or so, and considerable effort, to ramp back up, but the US can increase production by 2 million barrels a day.
I don’t doubt that, what has been lacking is the
will to succeed against government shackles.
Those days are coming to an end.
Someone needs to give these Persians a copy of Trump’s Art of the Deal book. Yes, you want to ask for more than you are willing to accept, but Armageddon is a bit too much.
I remember years ago Trump on television saying that we should just bomb them to hell and take their oil.
I hope he gets the chance...
We sink their navy, then make them pay for it.
The Shiite Muslims preach that they are Gog and Magog and will win. How twisted is that?
Wow. Boy are they in for a rude awakening.
Where’s my picture of mickey mouse flipping off Iran?
Iran would have already attempted that if it believed that it was capable of doing it without devastating consequences.
If Iran follows through with this threat, we better make sure we don’t arrive on the scene with plywood models of aircraft carriers.
