While I do think Iran is a serious threat, ISIS is a more immediate threat. Iran has wanted to destroy the US for at least 30 years, but ISIS is the one sending suicide missions out all over the world on a weekly basis. They are already here in this country, more on the way thanks to Obama, it’s only a matter of time before we see more and deadlier attacks here in our own back yard.

Iran is one to definitely watch, only a fool would turn his back on them. If they manage to get a missile with the range to lob a nuclear warhead or direction, I have little doubt they would use it.

What worries me is right now, we don’t have the military to handle a serious attack from a capable opponent. If Iran had got their hands on a nuclear weapon capable of reaching us 10 years ago, they would have thought twice, we had the strength to use as a deterrent. Even the wackiest maniac wouldn’t attack a country 5 times its own size or more with the strongest military in the world. Now, not so much. Fortunately we only have a few more months of Obama, but then how long will it take Trump to rebuild a military that will make most antagonists stop and think twice?

I don’t think it will take Iran 10 years to get nuclear weapons capability put together, then the whole world is in jeopardy. They will start WWIII without a second thought, they sincerely believe they have a religious duty to destroy us. Our way of life is in direct conflict with their religion, and they have hated the US for many years. When they chanted Death to America, they meant it. From an article I read a few days ago, one of the recent missiles they tested had “Death to Israel” painted on the side. Israel will be their first target, that’s our best advantage, it will give us a little warning.

Between the two, Iran and ISIS - trust me on this one - climate change is NOTHING...aside from the fact that it’s a hoax, of course...

ISIS is a sock puppet distraction. Take note that Obama helps both them and Iran.
