Early melt for you this morning. Is this seriously the first thing you do at 5 am?

Do you actually think that him congratulating (just words remember, absolutely nothing with real world consequences) Erdogan is a big deal? Do you really think that is a significant fact? That a phone call has any impact on either the situation, or the policy on either side?

Very interesting if so. Because it means nothing. People need to stop thinking every statement/action made by politicians is significant. They are actors on a stage.

Being "in bed" with the Saudis and Israel is a 75 year old problem. Everyone hates it and you sound like a complete moron when you blame Trump for it

The obvious answer is to cultivate Iran as our ally, which it used to be. We don't do that because the Jewish State won't allow it.

Keep saying that to yourself
It means a lot
There is a gradual shift to the Sunni axis of Islam, similar to the bush era. Sorry you are too blind to see that

Yea nothing to do with some mess in an embassy a few years ago. But I'm sure Iran is just waiting at the table for us, welcoming our embrace with open arms. You know, since we have a long and documented history of being allies with them.

Our undying love for Israel is the only thing holding back the great American -Persian Alliance!

Sorry that you think politicians' public comments to each other (especially as heads of state) are anything more than a dog-and-pony formality show.

Gotta deliver war for the Defense contractors.

Great jumping Jehoshaphat they are putting commercials for Stealth bombers on TV.

Why Northrop Grumman Ran A Super Bowl Ad For A Stealth Bomber

Tyler Rogoway

2/02/15



How many American consumers are looking to purchase a new long-range stealth super-bomber? None. So why would Northrop Grumman spend big bucks on producing such a glitzy ad and pay to have it run in Washington DC and Dayton, Ohio during the Super Bowl? Defense contractors have learned a thing or two from Steve Jobs."

I saw this commercial or another like it last Sunday.

Mattis is an idiot
I hope that's the case (him being just an idiot) and not being a paid lobbyist to some wahabi state just like many of the previous trump associates.

False. He got us into this mess in Syria as well. Not sure how that's "staying out of the ME". That awful nuclear deal isn't "staying out" of the ME either

Mattis was probably the best general we have had in a while.

He knows what to do, but will he do it? Because our policies have been 'bass ackwards' for decades.

Obama reluctantly did some things that supported the Globalist agenda including wrecking Libya for Israel. The drone strike campaign was feckless. But at least he didn't send large numbers of regular US infantry blundering cluelessly around the ME the way the Graham/ McCain axis wanted.

How is the nuclear deal awful?

Let's see, US companies made billions of dollars form that deal and will lose billions in contracts if it got canceled!
On the other hand who is set to gain billions of the deal is canceled? The oil
Machine is Saudi Arabia and the war machine in isreal

It's really not that hard to see, but again most are blind sheeple

It's horrible because it's just a face saving-"look what I did" by our government. Its also ridiculous to buy them off from continuing the nuclear program, they will not be satisfied/comply forever. It simply kicks the can down the road. Like an annoying homeless guy, they will hold the hand out again

I evaluate politics on substance, not Reddit conspiracies about what company is secretly making money.
