Sadly many allies are used to sucking their ****s and are ready to blame us.

You’re referring, of course, to the enemedia.
And the democrats.
You just know they’ll take Iran's side on this.

I agree with General Forrest.

PDJT should refuse to be goaded.

Let the Iranians close down the gulf before acting. Europe and China are much more dependent on that oil than the US. Let them hurt. Let them come to the realization that something has to be done. Let them beg.

The Paris accords were unlawful and voluntary.

I'm less worried about what Iran is doing than our so-called allies...

EU fights to keep nuclear deal alive amid US, Iran pressure

Germany says there is 'strong evidence' Iran behind tanker attacks

The EU isn’t waffling.

It is actively conspiring to help Iran violate our sanctions.

They got a measured response from the US, Unfortunately, during the brief conflict, one of our naval ships mistook an Iranian civilian aircraft and shot it down in error.

The Mullahs severely miscalculated then....history does repeat itself...

Well — at least you’re a good, honest globalist.

Always.
To paraphrase what Rush used to say:
“If you want to learn about how much America sucks, just watch the news or read the New York Times.”

“Someone is pushing us to war.”

Kerry, Clintonistas, Soros, Muzzie Brohood leadership, Globalist billionaires...
All would profit from Trump going to war and losing in 2020. If you don’t think these people would not get 100,000’s of thousands of people killed to keep themselves out of prison, you have not been paying attention.

I like your $0.02 cents, agree entirely with it, and expect that what you described is pretty close to the big picture of what’s going on.

just stupid.

" I expect a foreign countries to comply with international sanctions imposed by our government because of the consequences we will apply if they don't. "      is the exact OPPOSITE of globalism.

What obligation does another country have to abide by sanctions imposed by the U.S. government?

The U.S. has an official embargo on the import of Russian oil and natural gas. And yet Massachusetts recently completed construction of a massive LNG terminal that was built so they could import Russian gas instead of allowing the construction of pipelines to deliver AMERICAN gas from the Marcellus Shale region of Pennsylvania.

Massachusetts circumvents the Russian embargo with the help of a French intermediary. You can be sure John Kerry is paid handsomely to facilitate this idiocy.

When does the U.S. military invade Massachusetts?

Two problems. First, we defend Europe and spend lots and lots of US taxpayer money to do it. Second problem is that the EU is talking out both sides of its face. If the EU wants to crawl into bed with the mullahs, they are free to do it. Just don't take our money while telling porkies about what you're up to and conspiring against US interests. If the EU wants the mullahs, then it can dissolve NATO and pay for its own damn welfare state.

The Iranians used the massive infusion of cash provided by President Obama and John Kerry to fund a massive expansion and arming of their international terrorist networks.

The newly expanded Iranian terrorist network costs a lot of money to maintain and Iran has lots of hungry Jihadi mouths to feed all over the world. These are the kinds of mouths that when you stop feeding them, they start eating you.

Iran has a big problem on their hands. Unfortunately, with that kind of trouble, so do we.
