“The difference between War and what we have now is we’re not shooting back”
Philadelphia Newspaper in 1917 on Germany’s Unrestricted Submarine Warfare
I woke up to the news that we are hitting Iran and that we apparently are apparently going to finally going to take out that that regime.
Here is his speech in full:
For 40 years they sponsored terrorism all over the world. They were responsible for attacks against American troops & interests all over the world. It is because of the Ayatollah’s in Iran that the Brits, French, Canadians & others are now bowing down before Islam.
Additionally our enemies (China & Russia) have been able to use Iran as a proxy
Let’s be very blunt, I was 16 when they took our people hostages. We should have delivered an ultimatum to them on the spot and destroyed the Ayatollah’s regime at that time while it was still weak. The world paid a horrible price for our failure to do so in 1979 & you might even say that millions all over the planet might have been saved if we had. Furthermore the Iranian people would have been spared even more.
I’m sure that president from Regan to Bush 2 (who actually had Iran surrounded with armies to the east and west of the nation at one point) had reasons not to act & thought it prudent to avoid such things.
You could also make the case that the Iranian people had not yet reached the point where they had had enough. Many Marxists who cheered the fall of the Shah and the coming of Khomeini ended up against a wall as all useful idiots do. It was just 30 days ago that tens of thousands of Iranians died proving that they are ready for this regime of evil to be destroyed.
There were other presidents & administrations who decided that Iran was worthy of US tax dollars by the pallet. I have thoughts on that which we won’t go into today but fortunately that president is no longer in charge so we can wait until the intelligence files of a fallen Islamic Iran are opened to scrutiny to speculate why.
Now we have Donald Trump. We don’t have to speculate why he is doing what he’s doing. Put simply he has decided in his 2nd term to take care of all family business and Iran is one of those pieces of business that is being taken care of.:
It’s been a long time coming. I’m glad to see it in my lifetime.
I’d like to close with some tweets from a month ago that has aged rather well first this:
Apparently the amount of time is 44 days
It’s an interesting thread. I respect Dr. Shanker, he doesn’t like Trump but he’s an honest guy.
This reminds me of Longstreet who never wanted to move until he had everything ready. If Lee had listened to him we might have lost at Gettysburg.
One thing I will say, he has to finish the job, the mullahs have to fall, if not it’s a failure.
