[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Some of these posters sound like they’re about 12 years old and have no concept of the evil acts Iran has committed over the decades.  I suggest you educate yourselves because you just sound beyond ignorant.

“The mullahs who run Iran are murderous thugs. They kill women for showing their hair. They throw people in jail for dancing. They execute homosexuals. Death to America is their official foreign policy. They want Salman Rushdie’s head on a platter. The world is a better place without them.

I realize that’s crazy talk to anyone born in the 1990s or the 2000s. If you learned your foreign policy in a post-9/11 Ivy League classroom, or from some based online bugmold with a newsletter, that sounds like the reckless neocon warmongering that put us into a quagmire in Iraq.

But I was born in the 1970s. I remember the shocking barbarism of the fatwa against Mr. Rushdie. I remember the Iranian-backed Hezbollah terrorism of the 1980s, the 1994 suicide attack on the Jewish community center in Buenos Aires, the 1996 Khobar Towers bombing. I remember Terry Anderson and Terry Waite. I remember that al Qaeda members, including Osama bin Laden’s son, were given sanctuary in Iran after 9/11.

Any American over 50 knows who started it. The claim that Iran is the world’s No. 1 state sponsor of terrorism is more than words. It strikes deep. The Islamic Republic has waged war on the West and Western values for half a century. The Foundation for Defense of Democracies keeps a handy tally of Tehran’s long and bloody résumé. Check it out sometime.”

If you'd like to fight the Mullahs, you're free to do so. Stop using our children to do it.[/quote]

“Our children” - or rather, our military - are getting rid of this sick regime which has caused so much terror around the world for decades.  Very thankful right now but it figures that you would want the Islamic Regime to continue sowing terror both within Iran and worldwide.  [/quote]
The new MAGA talking point:  "get rid of evil regimes"

The old  MAGA talking point: "we can't be the world's police".. "no new wars"

How pathetic you are. [/quote]

I’m not MAGA, you absolute imbecile.  You screeching “MAGA!”’at anyone you disagree with simply proves how idiotic you are.[/quote]

DP sure. [/quote]

See, this is what you do.  You try to silence anyone who disagrees with you by labeling them “MAGA.”  I’ve never voted for DJT.  And yet, I can appreciate some of the things he’s managed to do - such as cutting off the Islamic Regime at their knees. [/quote]
