I’ll take Iran for a quadrillion dollars of loss, Alex.

Barrak Obama is the greatest threat to world stability and peace.

Russia is working with Iran. Keep this in mind during WWII Germany signed a peace accord with Russia, Germany broke the peace accord when it invaded Russia. You bet that Iran and Russia have an accord too. Russia will move through Turkey soon enough and Iran and Syria have a pact. Iran will back Russia and already backs Syria. Threat is equal, can Russia be trusted.

They are linked. Russia uses Iran’s nuclear ambitions to unsettle the West. It’s a foolish game since Iran is just as likely to hit Russia as anybody else.

Similar game going on between China & the Norks.

Neither

Barack is America’s worst enemy.

Russia is no threat to america

Iran is a minor threat. The real danger to the world from Iran is Israel and the Gulf nations.

We're being dragged into a new Cold War by a puffed-up bullfrog (and I don't mean President Putin) UK

… But the warmongers are selectively blind. Hardly any British news media have mentioned an event in Kiev last week. A group of five louts,one of them an MP from the thuggish, racialist ‘Svoboda’ party,forced their way into the office of Oleksandr Panteleymonov,chief of the main Ukrainian TV station. There they physically attacked him and shouted anti-Russian racial abuse at him.

… These people are supposed to be our allies and friends.

On their behalf,our Prime Minister is puffing himself up like a bullfrog,and busily creating a new Cold War that will benefit nobody except spies and weapons-makers,for a cause he doesn’t understand and can’t explain.

A weak, impotent, and morally degenerate America is the prime danger. Because it allows a vacuum, and opens the doors to countless bad actors across the globe.

I’m much less concerned about either Iran or Russia, compared to the degenerating sewer that America has become.

What about democrats and low-information voters? If not for these factors, the rest wouldn’t be a problem.

Yup and now he's got a crisis that is most certainly not going to waste.

Why isn’t Obama listed as a choice? He’s my number 1.

The greatest threat to world peace are Bathhouse Barry’s puppet masters.

“I’ll take Iran for a quadrillion dollars of loss, Alex.”

Bingo we have a winner. Russia is not a threat to the world, only its next door neighbors and when the price of oil drops not even them. Its hard to wage war when you ain’t got no money.

Of course Obama is our worst enemy.

Doesn't mean that Russia and Iran aren't threats.

Of course they are.
