I'm no fan of Iran, and I mourn the deaths of our service people & innocent civillians, but good for them doing what myriad repukes have failed to do: say no & back it with decisive action!

They have a large military, and decades of animus towards the United States for our past stupid actions. Their hatred of us doesn't exist in a vacuum, and our weapons don't discriminate between supporters of the mullahs and those in opposition.

We're making no friends in the Arab world with this undeclared, illegal war.

he expected to waltz into Iran, the population would greet him as a savior and hand him the keys to the country. He probably saw this as some one or two episode future documentary of "t, the greatest prezzie evah". Of course, he doesn't factor in Reality, who is hitting him upside the head, refusing to be ignored.

Snort.

So it’s a little unfair. You know, you win a war, but they have no right to be doing what they are doing.

does not understand the very simple notion that sometimes people will fight back after being attacked despite Daddy's money and the lawyers it buys.

And American voters elected him president. Twice.

At least they're going to leave you alone, and at least you'll feel good".

Trump stated this during a speech in Colorado in 2005.


So Iran can't fight back 10 times as hard?
