Liz Cheney and Meghan McCain are War-supporting neocons on foreign policy, daughters standing up for their dads.

I hope Liz Cheney doesn’t become the female Mitt Romney.

So- those that think this would be OK, if... by NOT removing the personnel at the Iranian base that de-encrypted our Global Hawk GPS locator signals— to bring down the drone— that they can be captured— and expose the Kerry connection,the real Russian espionage (cut out Iranian) and shut down, forever the obamaumao Treason against our country? Because this was caused to happen, by the very people who are being exposed.... from the Hoax. Dhimmis and neocon never trumper lying Rinos and Romneybots, deep in the mil- industrial-admin state apparat, fearing the loss of the nest egg WE have been paying for, along with the lives of our best trained military point of the spear— for decades.

This exposure would include the 800 Billion in mixed cash only (the mullahs insisted- cash being largely untraceable vs. bullion) payoff for the Iran “nuclear” Deal. Kerry, McCain—— Kerry-McCain..........Cheney... BUSH ....CLINTONS.... obamaumao/marxists!! The how to of Orwell’s perpetual war.

We can literally take out the entire Iranian leadership, and effect real change, and do it for a lot less money than Iraq I, II, Afghanistan I to infinity ventures.

Not chicken-— way ahead smarter, and way more deadly. Gone way past the cheney’s of the world, and their stock portfolio.. the argyle sock “cowboys” of the old Saud family alliance (all gone now with Mohamed Bin Salman— whom these same clowns have been trying to depose— see: Khashoggi murder accusations etc.)

I also think Trump’s sanctions are being so effective, a military response would not accomplish anything more. Increase the sanctions even more, and watch the Iranian Government implode. The IRG will depose the Mullahs when the money to pay them runs out.

An effective response does not have to be an overt military one.

We should be cautious when potentially going into war.

Or maybe not. Did Reagan do a military retaliation for the Soviets’ shoot down of a passenger airliner with Americans aboard?

Not the same thing. Operation Praying Mantis

When have we ever had a President who has ever asked the question, “how many people will be killed by our actions?” and, compares it to the number of people killed by their actions.

This calls for a more pinpoint retaliation and, I hope that is what is in store for their leadership.

I sort of agree. I think Iran should realize they have a lot of guns pointed at them, and that they got a pass. Trump is no Blame America First coward like Obama. This white dove of of peace is a signal to Iran to give up their nuclear weapons and no one dies. Should they do something stupid, there would be punishing consequences with the whole world saying, “Trump gave you an opportunity for peace and you rejected it, to hell with you.”

An interesting dynamic, but Iran is run by religious fanatics who will allow their citizens to die needlessly, futily. That should make everyone oil their weapons.

Much better of the Middle East despises Iran, and they want this cobra defanged. Better to let them do it. They have threatened America many times, and the religious government has said “Death to America” many times, and if there is anything I take serious it is this: when a Muslim says he is going to kill you, as Allah commands him, then he will absolutely try to do it.

Trump looks very very strong after this. His entire administration wanted to attack and he stood against everyone and held off. Iran and everyone else will now know that Trump has a very hawkish administration and that he is the only reason why they are not being attacked. Trumps mind could change and any minute so you would do well to stay on his good side.

One *could* argue that DJT was correct to observe that nobody died in the attack on the drone so "150" deaths of Iranians would be "disproportionate".

But hopefully we're flying dozens of those drones near their airspace and if another one's hit...or another oil tanker is hit...we strike regardless of how many deaths are,or are not,involved.

Gee, Obama did it because he values the 57 states more than the 50 states. Trump may have done it as a bargaining tool.

“I think good ‘ol Lindsey Graham is starting to come around to a different kind of thinking since Trump. Graham used to be the same way.”

Let’s face it the Trump presidency has made us all very aware of the great and lasting damage the neocons have done to the country with the endless engagements in the Middle East at a high cost in lives and money with no end in sight.

yes-— reference my later post here below. the uniparty LGBTQ is OK contingent of rich kids who are... unstable at best, but have their parents continue to provide the cocoon of protection. imho. there is a commonality that is shared in this underground “culture” that enables the LEFT to continue to screw with this country’s sovereignty. You know— so we can be more like soros’ EU nazi dream. The Cheneys, especially the robot Dick— do not impress. We are seeing competing Beltway Bandits (dem and repub as parties) where they are not needed. It’s a New World all over again and not the Bushes New World Order (which continues to be parroted by soros as of last week).
