Iran is threatening to hit US Allies in the region, including UAE and Israel. Shit will get real very quickly if Israel is attacked by Hezbollah.
I'd wager the Leviathan offshore gas platform is surrounded by almost every Israeli warship.

Only seven weeks ago, Iran witnessed the most violent anti-government demonstrations in decades. Security forces killed anywhere between 330 and 1,500 protesters in more than 100 cities across the country. Thousands more were injured and arrested.




Congrats on missing his point.

The terrorists from 9 11 were NOT from Afghanistan.
Not everyone is as trigger happy as the Republicans. Most prefer to operate on good intelligence ......

of course they weren't - they were from Saudi Arabia.

And the latest "terrorist" was a general in the iranian armed forces.

the white nationalist climate change deniers by definition do not require anything to make sense.

Bin Ladin was dealt with in the proper manner. Eliminated from the gene pool.
bin laden has 23 kids

perhaps you should avoid any and all reference to science. Does not seem to be your thing.

For a little perspective...


Aug. 19, 1953: U.S. and Britain Topple Democratically Elected Government of Iran

On Aug. 19, 1953, Iranian Premier Mohammad Mossadegh was removed from power in a coup organized and financed by the British and U.S. governments. The Shah quickly returned to take power and signed over forty percent of Iran’s oil fields to U.S. companies.
Here is a description of this historic event from “50 Years After the CIA’s First Overthrow of a Democratically Elected Foreign Government We Take a Look at the 1953 US Backed Coup in Iran” on Democracy Now!,
In 1953, the CIA and British intelligence orchestrated a coup d’etat that toppled the democratically elected government of Iran. The government of Mohammad Mossadegh. The aftershocks of the coup are still being felt.
In 1951 Prime Minister Mossadegh roused Britain’s ire when he nationalized the oil industry. Mossadegh argued that Iran should begin profiting from its vast oil reserves which had been exclusively controlled by the Anglo-Iranian Oil Company. The company later became known as British Petroleum (BP).
After considering military action, Britain opted for a coup d’état. President Harry Truman rejected the idea, but when Dwight Eisenhower took over the White House, he ordered the CIA to embark on one of its first covert operations against a foreign government.

Define "Good".


And people betray others for a lot of reasons. Broken trust, broken faith, broken promises. The US has a track record of making terrorists so...
EXACTLY!!!!!! but many just choose to see this in binary terms.......They refuse to believe that the US is a power hungry , territory grabbing, nation controlling bully..........that resorts to terrorism of its own to achieve its nasty goals. Plus trump has seduced them into believing that He alone can deal with these issues and killing, assassinations, (pre meditated MURDER ) is just fine bu them.Why??......these type of killings are expedient, sensational, dramatic and show the world how really UGLY the US really is.....and how dangerous. the ethical, legal and humane way takes to o long and does not have the political theater. Anyone that supports this kind of assassination.........terrorism..........supports terrorism...... and should not complain when terrorists spout up in response to the US interference in the ME.......or anywhere for that matter. Any terrorism is just wrong;g.........and the US cannot claim the higher moral ground with out being a ridiculous hypocrite. Trump is enjoying wielding all this power and influence...........just as any psychopath would. He is a narcissistic power junkie. going rogue. Who will he have killed next?? Would love to see Trumps 'hit list". He like folks, staff, and other nations to be afraid of him. and that is just sick.& dangerous. but it makes him feel powerful. His "negotiating" tactics are basically threats, and fear mongering. and bullying.

How quickly folks forget the history.......particularly if it dose not fit into their beliefs .

Cliffy is right to bring up the history.........as a reminder. We should do a historical profile of events and how they got to where we are today....... There is a distinct pattern there.
