Iran Demands Full Withdrawal of American Forces from Middle East
Breitbart ^ | June 25, 2019 | Edwin Mora

Posted on 06/25/2019 11:51:44 PM PDT by righttackle44

Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif this week demanded that the United States pull its troops out of the Persian Gulf region, arguing that such a move is “fully in line” with the interest of America and the world.

His comments, made via his official Twitter account on Monday, came amid skyrocketing U.S.-Iran tensions, mainly stemming from Tehran’s decision to shoot down an American drone this month. The incident is bringing the two countries closer to a military conflict. Both have warned they are ready for war.

“[U.S. President Donald Trump] is 100% right that the US military has no business in the Persian Gulf. Removal of its forces is fully in line with interests of US and the world,” Zarif wrote.

He went on to say the Trump administration “is not concerned with US interests — they despise diplomacy, and [have a] thirst for war.”

Iran killed many US troops in Iraq. GW Bush was an idiot for attacking Iraq. I believe he was trying to get even for a so called plan to kill his father in Kuwait after the Gulf War. We have had problems with Iran since little Jimmy Carter. They need to be blown off the map. We have idiots in command who have the military riding in vehicles up and down MSR’s and other roads.

How many of your children do you commit to cobat there? Mine would be one of three.. iran isn’t worth it any of mine or yours.

The sanctions are working.. crank them to max.
How many troops exactly were kia in Iraq by Iran? Before you go too far my son in law was KIA in Iraq.
SA and Europe are on opposite sides on this. Let the three of them duke it out.
We need to focus on 2020 & our border. These two things are worthy of our time and might.

Good post. I have something similar on my FR homepage - it’s pretty brief. I’m about to ping you guys to a couple of FR links for more Bible Prophecy stuff - some current events - one back to 2015 that lines right up with Scripture.
