Over the weekend, Iranian proxy forces fired a rocket near the U.S. Embassy in Baghdad. A week ago, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo order all non-essential State Department personnel out of Iraq after Iran was seen loading missiles onto ships and positioning them toward U.S. targets.

For months, the Trump administration has been increasing economic pressure on Iran. Two weeks ago, the State Department announced it was eliminating waivers to countries still purchasing oil from the terrorist regime, subjecting them to sanctions.

Now, a new report in the Washington Post shows the pressure campaign is working and is suffocating Iran's largest terror organization Hezbollah. Before 9/11, Hezbollah was responsible for more American murders than any other terrorist organization.

President Trump is reducing Iran's ability to fund terrorists and develop nuclear weapons.

bammy was the absolute worst president this country has ever had. He did everything he could to favor terrorists of his childhood religion. He is a traitor!

Trump is reversing this. He has got to talk about it more! He needs to get through the wall erected by the media.

I have been saying since 03/17, after the Yemen, MOAB in Pakistan & the cruise missile attack in Syria, we were wacking the bad guys in a grand plan to force the PA to the table, note these were all Iranian proxies imho. They have won ugats with our lion, funding gone, Jerusalem is the capital, and now we are squeezing Iran's balls even more. Mam I love our President more and more every day. Am I the only one who saw all this? Oh ya ISIS too, don't tell me that they weren't Iranian proxies, and the move towards the norks? Can you say break apart the nukie partners of Iran & Noth Korea? Imagine Iran collapsing internally, PDJT isn't just undoing Obama's fubars, he's going to undo Jimma Carter's? Aka Iran going Mullah, and I hope he lives long enough to see it, what a schadenfruede moment that will be for a lot of us....

i hope it works, very much. they need to be defeated, disarmed, and disbanded (and if they’re also deceased, the entire world will be a lot safer!)

send them all to their ‘rewards’ with their ‘god’ in Hell!

Would love to see the people of Iran get rid of the mullahs.

The gift of peanutboy.

Still rankles.

And so many RIP as a result.

Thanks detective.

• Boosted by nuke deal, Iran ups funding to Hezbollah, Hamas [2015]

[Sir Bangaz Cracka]

“Before 9/11, Hezbollah was responsible for more American murders than any other terrorist organization.”

And, by sending pallets of cash to Iran, Obama did whatever he could to help his fellow travelers kill more Americans. Then, Obama did everything possible to install Hillary which would have ensured continued plane loads of cash to his terrorist buds.

That’s a good visual.

Re: Sanctions hurt Hezbollah

If accurate, that is very good news.

However, my own instincts say that Hezbollah, and their 60,000 rockets aimed at Israel, are going to be very dangerous for a very long time.
