Iran has been at war with most of the rest of the world since its Islamic Revolution. They owe the US some serious payback and I for one would like to see them crushed.
I’m no fan of Gabbard’s, but she is right about this.
And you don’t think that was a CIA or CIA-like false flag operation?
You don’t think Trump has some big ol’ neocons, from Elliot Abrams to John Bolton, in his admin?
She ought to be working with Trump, not bashing him
Thats why I am not impressed
She’s right. The Trump administration is infested with “neoconservatives” and they’re itching for a war with Iran. Which as always they promise will be a cakewalk.
She has some points. There are DEFINITELY Deep State war mongers in the Trump Administration, and they don’t need to be there. She actually WENT TO SYRIA, and met with Assad, to get both sides of the story - and now correctly understands the situation. That’s more than any other Democrat or Republican has done (which is why she’s hated by the Democrat base and the media).
As to Iran, I don’t know enough to speak on it, but in 3 years we’ll be self-sufficient in oil (unless one of the freaks wins), so it won’t matter.
I heard Tulsi saying, “blah, blah, blah”, but I was thinking, “You’re pretty”.
Good point - being a good-looking chick doesn’t get one far in the Democrat Party.
My dear old dad use to say “ you do not have to ask one if they are ignorant just wait a few minutes and they will tell you” Tulsi Gabbard is screaming it from the roof tops
Abrams is a Neo-Con but Bolton is not. Bolton supported Goldwater in 1964 and was an early supporter of Ronald Reagan.
Iran has been at war with America for forty years.
Embassy bombings, support for terrorist groups, IEDs sent into Iraq to kill and maim our troops, etc.
This loon from Hawaii belongs in the RAT party. She is nuts, just like all of them.
A+
The US relationship with Israel is going to change, because of the tides of history if nothing else.
Please post the reason, or reasons, that you think an alliance with Israel is a good thing for the United States, apart from common values or "democracy".
Please be specific about how this alliance has HELPED the United States in our military engagements in Lebanon, Afghanistan, Iraq, and Syria.
Iran, backed by American Democrats AND the GOPe, is trying to push Trump into a war. But Tulsi, I guess when you are fighting against a boatload of far-Left dems, bashing Trump wins you points.
I thought Gabbard was a reasonable Dem. I guess not. She has plummeted in my book.
Bolton is a serious warmonger. That makes him a neocon in modern parlance. (Abrams worked for Reagan.)
I dont care where people stand on theology...and I am not a rapture-ready end times kinda gal.
But our duty as a Western nation and gatekeeper of our Judeo-Christian social fabric and historic legacy necessitates a moral obligation to the integrity of Jerusalem. Period.
Go to any museum in Europe and look at an old world map. It didnt matter whether the map was made in Britain or Italy. Jerusalem was always the center.
Bolton is an anti-communist, anti-jihadist hawk. Neo means new. The neo-cons were former democrat Vietnam war hawks that supported LBJ in 1964 but by 1980 supported Reagan. In other words they were new Conservatives. Bolton supported Goldwater and Reagan from the beginning.
Just because you want to hurl a slur or insult at Bolton doesn’t mean you can change the meaning of a word.
Many of today’s neocons were not around or at least not of political age during the Vietnam War. Get with the times!
