I have nothing but respect for veterans. Anyone who’s served is a patriot following the orders of the Commander in Chief, in service to the country. That doesn’t mean I agree with the policy.

Iran and their IRGC have targeted and killed our troops in the past with IED's. I believe the IRGC is now classified as a terrorist organization. They're an Iranian state organization. Throw in their terrorist proxies like Hezbollah and you have a legitimate threat backed by the capabilities of Iran.

None of the hijackers were from Iran. 15 were Saudi, one was Egyptian, one was Lebenese, and two were Emirati. What's the difference between the U.S. relationship to those countries and Iran?



and whats funny is that part of the reason we will go into Iran is to benefit the Saudis

So we didn’t install the Shah, who brutally murdered his own people, rigged elections, and profited from his position, all because we were afraid of communism? Get a history book. Countries aren’t antagonistic towards us because they’re jealous of us. They hate us because we’ve been trying to force our way of life on them for half a century.

No, we oppose it as any enlightened human should.

Do you believe all men are created equal?

So, in our quest to stop communism at all costs, we set up a puppet government that ended up being far more tyrannical and brutal than the previous government. And continued to support that government, even when the people of Iran rebelled against it and took Americans hostage as a consequence. I hate communism, but you simply cannot force American values on every country. Every single time we’ve tried this, it’s failed miserably and had serious unintended consequences.

Ever look at pictures of Iran and Iranians before the revolution? Didn’t look like a bad place to be. Looks like the familiar muzzie shithole now, doesn’t it?

No emotion, just fact. You made the absurd statement that Iran poses no threat. I factually showed why you’re wrong.

Does it mean I’m calling for an attack or invasion? No! It’s just a correction of your false statement.

You don’t think the American military bases and missile defense systems in every country surrounding Iran would be sufficient enough to stop their supposed attack?

Yeah all their fault having to clean up dumbass potato farmers full of "feels" mistakes.

Their leadership pray to their cult leader for the downfall of our nation, and are a danger to our best ally in the region.

No reason not to give them a kind reminder.

He was probably referencing the fact that many IED's were manufactured in Iran and smuggled into Iraq. Not sure how that is an emotional take.

Yes, neocons are to blame for most everything that’s wrong with our country nowadays. They’re the reason we lost thousands in Iraq, ran up trillions of dollars in debt that we may never be able to pay back fully, and they have succeeded in completely destabilizing the Middle East and Central Asia.

How many In law enforcement and the military in the US? Ended up kind of insufficient in stopping 9/11 wasn’t it? We aren’t talking about people with the balls to fight it out. They want to kill you, sure. But they are just as happy to kill your children, bomb the next sporting event you plan to attend, and plant IED’s to kill anyone who happens by.

So you are saying that Iran is unstable because of todays neocons?

What are other things in the middle east that is unstable that is their fault?

And asia's unstable?

You're lost, kid.

The left wants to put boots on the ground in Syria and go to war with Russia.

One day you'll grow up.
