Our working as mercenaries for the Saudis could be seen as the same for Israel. I don’t see a comparison but both countries benefit from Iran being neutered. We’re the only country that can do it. Believe me,I don’t want a war. I already went through the stress of having a son fight in Iraq and Afghanistan. But these mullahs are a threat. If there was some action I would hope that Trump would continue to seal the border.

Is Iran any more of a threat than, say, Pakistan? Pakistan is a dysfunctional state that has been sponsoring international terrorism for years. Hell -- they even harbored Osama bin Laden after he fled from Afghanistan.

And yet the U.S. hasn't done so much as send them a strong letter of rebuke.

The U.S. relationship with Israel is indicative of what's been wrong with our foreign policy for decades.

There is a huge danger to this country when we allow foreign governments to establish lobbying arms right here in Washington, D.C. There shouldn't even need to be an explanation for why that's the case.

When the Saudi government donated a million dollars to the John McCain Institute at the Arizona State University, does anyone here really believe they did this out of the goodness of their hearts?
