I feel terrible about the abuse of these Zoroastrians.

Yezidis are not Zoroastrians, though they probably have some influence from that direction.

Most of the surviving Zoroastrians live in India and have for many centuries. The Parsees.

I don’t want any more of our best people killed by worthless, untrustworthy politicians who rarely send their own pampered elitist miscreants into the service.

If it means that innocents die, as long as they aren’t ours.

$10.00 a gallon will bring this country to a screeching halt inside 3 pay cycles.

Better to open more refineries here, drill more here and take another look at some of the latest nuclear tech. It will probably take ten years the liberals always say it will; but after that 10 years? We don't have to worry about the middle east ever again, we tell the liberals to shuddup and we propser; let them (in the middle east)wipe themselves out.

Pipe dream, I know...but if it became a reality, whew...

Yeah, you see my thought was that, if we paid $10.00 a gallon that our taxes would be reduced accordingly due to less of a need to deploy the Navy which is expensive.

Reduce taxes?

I’ve entered the realm of drunk-posting.

As they say, if you don’t believe it works, when was the last time the world had a problem with the Carthaginians.

The experience from Benghazi says yes. Obama is worn out from the dictator party last night.

With the new Iraqi government, Christians are considered a potential enemy by both Sunni and Shia alike when election time rolls around. Saddam tolerated them, so the Shiite mobs drive them out of their districts, due to the stereotype that Christians will side with those who tolerated them in te elections. Then in the Shiite, well, they don’t want anyone to vote against their guys. It’s twisted it would be like states genociding those who vote against the party majority.

The muslims have been at war with the rest of the world for 1400 years, it’s time to get serious and end it.

That poster is very misleading. History will show that it was the female voter of America who put Obama in office, thus enabling the explosive growth of terrorism and death of the United States.

I believe it was the 1920s when Turks were murdering Christians and the US Navy was forbidden to act even though they could see the atrocities from the ships.
