And in 1988, he ordered Operation Praying Mantis, which “destroyed, damaged, or sank two Iranian oil platforms, three warships, several armed boats, and two fighter jets.”
I have to laugh because they pretend and post like Ukraine is winning something. Ukraine has run out of troops and many are defecting in the field of battle.
The place is a disaster but the nonsense keeps on.
And sink the Behshad which is supplying info to the Houthis.
Plus 200,000 women that won’t be married.
Their drones are probably made in China, so good luck with that.
An ounce of prevention now (it is already very very late when it comes to the Iranian threat) will save America a ton of casualties later (in the not-very-distant future when the Tehran crazies finish their ICBM nuclear bomb missiles. For as much trouble as Iran gives the Arabs and Israel and Pakistan, they aren’t assembling ICBMs to attack any of those countries (simply because ICBM’s aren’t needed to reach them). The Iranian nukes are destined to hit USA with...as the Iranian Moslem thugs-in-power make clear time after time after time, they say America is their “Great Satan...” and they even list the first 7 or 8 USA cities they plan to destroy...
Taking out their ICBMs and nuclear bomb factories would be a fine first step (and a very necessary one) at neutralizing this threat.
Did he bomb them into the stone age as mouth-breathing neo-cons want us to do on behalf of you-know-who?
Good point; Reagan knew when to get them out. (It's hard to imagine a man of his stature having Americans serve in a foreign country without the permission of its government and in complete violation of international law; there's no way he would have Americans in Syria.)
Oh, sure. The old WMD argument...
Yes! Another war is desperately needed!
It should be remembered as one of the low points of Reagan’s presidency, and gave us the first indications that the U.S. government was being run by agents of Islamic royal families in the Middle East.
Well come on all of you big strong men
Uncle Sam needs your help again
He’s got himself in a terrible jam
Way down yonder in old Iran
So put down your books
And pick up a gun
We’re gonna have whole lot of fun.
And it’s 1, 2, 3, what’re we fighting for?
Don’t ask me, I don’t give a damn
Next stop is old Tehran
And it’s 5, 6, 7, open up the pearly gates
Well there ain’t no time to wonder why
Whoopee! we’re all gonna die
Well TV generals, let’s move fast
Your big chance has come at last
Gotta go out and get those rags
The only Muslim is one who’s dead
And you know that peace can only be won
when we’ve blown ‘em all to kingdom come
Just put the sanctions back on, and use the threat of force.
Get rid of Biden, install Trump and Iran won’t be a problem.
I think they are already finished making their nukes. it’s a question of how many they have
Damn, Pompeo has gone to the dark side and sold out, too!!
Hope he’s not involved in the 2nd Trump Administration!!!
Wow. Disparaging Reagan & and a very successful, historic Naval combat mission.
Just when I thought freepers couldn’t get much stranger.
Have a nice day.
Sure, because the U.S. and its military is so strong, and well equipped to fight multiple wars in multiple theaters around the world.

If you didn’t even do the research I suggested, then it would be a waste of time discussing it with you anyway.
