“”Idiot.””
Spoken like a dyed in the wool democrat!
Democrat? I've compiled a TON of evidence showing that the *Democrats* (Obama, Biden, Hillary, many others) were the ones who had actually colluded with the Russians, despite all their smoke & mirrors BS tough 'talk' on Russia, and *I'm* speaking like a democrat?? Lol!
“”Democrat? I’ve compiled a TON of evidence””
Really impressive. Doesn’t matter - only democrats insult/name call those with whom they disagree. Might want to think about that before disparaging someone’s post.
You weren’t able to give FReeper “The Toll” a straight answer to his/her question (asked numerous times) about naming ONE terrorist act on the part of the Iranians and you resorted to name calling instead. A well known trick of those without an answer to a straight question.
I guess you figured he/she would be scared off by the voluminous amount of material you posted. Easy enough to do by cutting and pasting.
Fox News military analyst reported the drone cost ONE HUNDRED AND EIGHTY MILLION DOLLARS!
"FReeper 'The Toll'" is a long-time Putin and Russia apologist. He does not deserve respect. He and his fake patriot comrades shouldn't even be allowed on a site like this. In case you didn't know, Russia is a major enemy of the United States.
As for not providing him an answer to his ridiculous claim that Russia-puppet Iran wasn't a state-sponsor of terrorism, I think I did provide the phony with an answer. Go back and check posts 78 and 85.
Just to shed some light on that figure, if accurate, the drone by itself probably cost 1 to 2 million. Maybe even 5 million. The surveillance payloads it is equipped with on the other hand, I wouldnt doubt cost 10s to in excess of 100 million more.
~~In case you didn’t know~~~ - you don’t think that is patronizing and condescending to everyone here?
I don’t think any of us need to be lectured to by you about the state of affairs between the US and any other country. Why are you assuming you are the only one who pays attention to what is going on in the world? Would any of us be on FR if we weren’t keeping up to date on news releases? Do you assume someone just emerged from a cave and wandered into FR by accident?

Your #78 and #85 posts ARE NOT answers to the question that was asked over and over - WHAT IS THE TERRORIST EVENT? He never posted that Iran wasn’t a state sponsor of terrorism!!
He kept asking you to “name one event” and you post this in response? I believe he was asking in good faith and expected something in response other than derision. You did a masterful job of twisting what was said - pretty much like anyone on CNN or MSNBC would do.
“The Iranian regime is the leading state sponsor of terror. It exports dangerous missiles, fuels conflicts across the Middle East, and supports terrorist proxies.”
—President Donald J. Trump
By asking me (or Netanyahu, or President Trump, which he did), to provide a single example of an Iranian-sponsored terrorist attack, he was clearly suggesting that they weren't behind ANY. Because, if they were behind even one, then they WOULD indeed be a state sponsor of terrorism. Are you seriously suggesting that I need to pick out one of so many instances of it? Do you think Netanyahu or President Trump don't know what they are talking about when they assert that Iran sponsors terrorism??
US President Donald Trump designated Irans elite Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps a foreign terrorist organization on Monday, a move that was immediately applauded by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
Thank you, my dear friend President Donald Trump, for deciding to declare the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps as a terrorist organization, he said in a tweet. ...
Yes. Name one
He didn’t name one either. Just the same duckspeak you keep using.
Name one.
All terror is Sunni.
The recent tanker attacks.
So they were named the Largest State Sponsor of Terrorism on Tuesday?
Iran has been accused of training, financing, and providing weapons and safe havens for non-state militant actors, such as Hezbollah in Lebanon, Hamas in Gaza, and other Palestinian groups (Islamic Jihad (PIJ) and the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine-General Command (PFLP-GC)).
These groups are designated terrorist groups by a number of countries and international bodies; however, Iran considers such groups to be national liberation movements with a right to self-defense in the face of Israeli military occupation.[2]
The United States State Department has also accused Iranian-backed Iraqi Shia militias of terrorism against US troops, and Iran of cyberterrorism, primarily through its Quds Force.[3]
