Much like my family and others, these people came to America believing that we stood for freedom.

This would have been a great moment in history, if we didn't have a POTUS who thinks he can change dictators, autocrats and authoritarians by dazzling them with his self perceived brilliance as one of them.

Meanwhile, we got 40 year old punks skateboarding down the hallways of The White House.

Can be expected when an immature man-child is in charge.

Sad but true.

Yada, yada about freedom for inanians. How do they feel about the existence of Israel. That’s what I want to axe these expatriates.

Iranian Americans are one of the wealthiest ethnic groups in the United States, and are overwhelmingly secular in outlook. Many of them are also Jewish (Kings Park, NY and Beverly Hills, CA having the largest % of Iranian Americans in the country, many of whom are Jewish).

” when an immature man-child is in charge.”

You’d think eight years of Clinton would be enough to teach America never to make such a mistake again/s

They have some retarded pre-conceived notions. Nothing that a couple of decades in America and a culture of freedom can’t cure. Provided that they want to assimilate and become like us.

Well, if they can say from the heart, “Live and let live vis a vis Israel”, then I am 100% in their camp.

Good point. There are a lot of ethnic minorities from the Arab world here.

You would think. However, do to white guilt, Obama was elected … despite his Democrat credentials. Now we, and the rest of the world, are paying.

The CIA and Mossad need to do whatever they possibly can to help ovethrow the Islamic regime, and replace it with a more Turkey-like secular state.

Over 600 Iranians rallied in San Diego the other day
and several hundred more today.

We have US forces just a few miles away. I'm not advocating this in a public forum.....but what if, strictly by accident of course....a few military assault rifles and armaments accidentally ended up in the hands of the Persian freedom fighters? They fell off the back of a truck. Whoops.

What if the schoolyard bullies in the basijis got punched back in the face? Any American kid like me knows what happens when you punch the bully in the snout. He goes home and cries to his mommy. They don't know what to do when the target hits back.

Turkey-like secular state
///////////////
Not anymore. It needs to be free of islam. We can’t make another Iraqi Constitutional mistake of allowing the mandating of Islam being the Official religion and “No Law shall contradict ISLAM”.

IF IT AIN’T FREE OF ISLAM, IT AIN’T FREE.

Too bad they didn’t do enough to keep the previous one 30 years ago!

FWIW, my parents are Christians who escaped an Islamic country because of the persecution. I don’t think that natural born Americans (unlike Hussein Obama) know the half of it.

They have no idea how lucky they are to live in this great country. They just bitch and moan because they don’t have enough gubmint cheese.

The ROP is a tyrant.
