Trump Tweet concerning Iran
Twitter ^ | 5/17/20129 | Donald Trump

The Fake News Media is hurting our Country with its fraudulent and highly inaccurate coverage of Iran. It is scattershot, poorly sourced (made up), and DANGEROUS. At least Iran doesn’t know what to think, which at this point may very well be a good thing!

It is wise to remember the writing of that dead white European Herodotus: “ When a nation is at peace, sons bury their fathers; when a nation is at war, fathers bury their sons.”

Make no mistake, if shooting starts in the Persian Gulf those young American sailors are at grave risk. Everyone should understand that a conflict with Iran will not be bloodless.

President Trump said Thursday he hopes the U.S. does not go to war with Iran amid concerns in Washington that his administration may be preparing for military action.

“I hope not,” Trump said at the White House when asked about the prospects of an armed conflict with Tehran before his meeting with Swiss President Ueli Maurer...

So basically the alphabets, the neo-cons, the progs, and the deep state (but I repeat) are trolling for war. Just as they have been since before the election. At least Trump is not biting.

They’re not trolling for war. They’re trying to fool the public into think Trump’s a war monger.

There’s a difference.

there are numerous FReepers that are in denial over Iran. They are consumed with Buchananesque pacifism

I'm wondering when the Pentagon and the TV networks have scheduled the Iranian military to go into hospitals and snatch babies from incubators.

Or some sh!t like that.

:-P

"Islam is a religion of peace." -- said no Buchananesque pacifist, ever.

His gripe is with his own cabinet.

The media is just reporting what is leaked to them.

War should always be the LAST choice—anytime! The people of Iran need to pick their leaders—and get rid of them if they do not live up to their expectations. I am reminded of the words of a great black leader (Frederic Douglas) “Those who would be free must strike the first blow.”

Yep. It’s what the media liberals are putting out there.

Libs don’t care because their sons won’t join the military. Their sons will be spitting on our military and their families.
