Bitch thought 20 year wars that produced little are better than conquests in short order. This is not a simplistic narrative of just nuclear capabilities or Iran itself but a much larger web of world power and money. If Trump gets that solved in Iran the powers are not going to quit coming at him

If we don't get them now, we will just have to come back and do it in the future. I'm sure if they survive, they will be very motivated to get us back.

Some of us are old enough to recall when the leftists thought this guy was the devil himself.

Bolton is a lunatic and possibly a psychopath but it doesn’t mean we’re in a sustainable position with regard to Iran or global oil markets.

So you believed Vindman? Did you believe Christine-Blasey-Ford and her 2 doors?

I have to give you credit. When you want to change the subject you go into a different fricking dimension. What are you talking about?
