Iran's leaders want Israel and the US wiped off the face of the earth.

OK, my first concern is that fmr Pres Trump, as usual, seems to be trying to make this supposed issue about himself, and not the Country.
If Iran would ever do what fmr Pres Trump asserts, well then there would be an appropriate response from the US. I would not doubt that for a second.
But i have to ask, is fmr Pres Trump veering into his battery vs shark delusions with this comment?
Or is he continuing to show the apparent degradation of his mental acuity? Or both?

In 2020, when #45 ordered the assassination of General Qassem Soleimani (IRGC-QF), he removed from the chessboard quite an effective anti-ISIS commander.
Politically, at the last VPOTUS debate VP Mike Pence used this killing as a talking point, but he slurred the name and the audience wasn't swayed at all.

Trump is Terrified of the Iranians.
Killing Soleimani painted a Big Bull's-eye on his Ass.
He probably regrets ever doing it.

How so?
fmr Pres Trump seems to be enamored by dictators across the globe.
Why would Iran be any different?

Secretary of State Mike Pompeo received additional security after leaving office because of the potential retaliation from the IRGC-QF. Just as rogue elements in the US conducted the illegal "Iran-Contra Affair" in the mid-1980s, so could angry rogue elements in the IRGC-QF avenge their martyred leader behind the back of the political leadership in Tehran.
Killing General Soleimani was something the Israelis wanted because he effectively helped train and arm Lebanese Hezbollah, a ----- militia that organized to fight the 1982 Israeli occupation of southern Lebanon. The 1982 Israeli invasion of Lebanon was the brainchild of Ariel Sharon. Prior to 1982, the major ----- militia in Lebanon was Amal (in Arabic this means hope).
#45 brazenly crossed a line by killing General Soleimani. In an American analogy, gangster Dutch Schultz crossed a line by attempting to kill Special Prosecutor Thomas E. Dewey in 1935. Dutch Schultz was then killed by hitmen from Murder, Inc.

Why is anyone entertaining this man's delusions?
"If Iran assassinates him?"
What about if alien abduct him? Then what should we do? What about if he trips and fall down the stairs? Alligator attack??
Stop giving this fat loser so much attention.
He's still desperate to sell the idea that someone tried to assassinate him.
No one believes that charade except the most delusional Deplorable Trumping MAGAts.

Too funny! Thanks for this one, CLOWNSHACK.
If not for the MSM, #45 would have zero attention and the race wouldn't be close.
Fox TV is the new "Soma."

By insinuating the Iranians, #45 has diverted American attention away from the real issue:
A deranged young white male took pot-shots at an ex-POTUS with an easily accessible assault rifle. Look at all the time people are discussing conspiracy theories about this. The real problem is the US is awash with easily obtainable assault weapons.
That is why Dotard, channeling P.T. Barnum, is sliming the Iranians instead of addressing the real issue at hand.

As long as the assailant is a white male with a gun.
Nothing can be done.
Thoughts and prayers.
But we definitely need to build a wall to prevent a brown person with a gun from shooting someone.
As Donald Trump said to a room full of applauding MAGAts, "They're all rapists and criminals."

As I stipulated before, by insinuating the Iranians and skeptics mincing over conspiracy theories, #45 and the GOP have diverted American attention away from the real issue:
The US is awash with easily obtainable firearms and assault weapons and people are dying every day because of it.

Our interference with Iran's government is why Iran is what it is towards us today. In 1953 they held a democratic election installed the winner and the US backed a coup to overthrow a legitimately elected leader who questioned the profit ratio of some British Petro company and installed a despot. Not unlike what we did in Cuba around the same time for similar reasons.

The Shah's secret police, the SAVAK, was trained and supported by CIA.
Excerpt from Wiki:
"Writing at the time of the Shah's overthrow, Time magazine on February 19, 1979, described SAVAK as having "long been Iran's most hated and feared institution" which had "tortured and murdered thousands of the Shah's opponents." The Federation of American Scientists also found it guilty of "the torture and execution of thousands of political prisoners" and symbolizing "the Shah's rule from 1963"79." The FAS list of SAVAK torture methods included "electric shock, whipping, beating, inserting broken glass and pouring boiling water into the rectum, tying weights to the ---------, and the extraction of teeth and nails."

Most Iranians today don't care what happened a half century ago they want the Islamic police to ------- and to have a government that represents them better rather than a near dictatorship that fights with neighboring countries.

I think they'll get there Tor but it will take time. Threats of us crushing them only prove to them what they've been told about the US. There was a time when Iranians were very well respected around the world.

Can you imagine what would happen if any Dem raged about how another country should be 'wiped off the map' if they were assassinated?
Trump has strategerized himself as CRAZY well enough that he can say any idiotic thing he wants to and people just accept it.
Imagine if Obama or Biden had said that....

The time is now.
Iran already voted for a head of state that was the more liberal of the two and dont for get the happiness incident.
"n May 2014, a group of Iranian fans who created a tribute to "Happy" were arrested.[64][65][66][67] According to a police chief, the song represented vulgarity and also hurt public chastity. Williams responded to the arrest in a tweet stating "It's beyond sad these kids were arrested for trying to spread happiness."[68] Soon after Iran's President Hassan Rouhani criticized the arrest when he tweeted "#Happiness is our people's right. We shouldn't be too hard on behaviours caused by joy."[69] The dancers, along with the director,[70] were later released. It was reported on September 19, 2014, that seven of the individuals in the Iranian video had been handed sentences, suspended for three years, of 91 lashes each along with jail by Iranian courts.[71]"

I have had in my life several American friends of Iranian descent and have known a few Iranian nationals. Nice people. I have no ill will towards these people but they need to get rid of that horrid Islamic state and those old vampires running things there before I will make nice towards their country who has giant bill boards all over the country of them blowing us up in the West. I just watched the opening ceremony of the Olympics and yes just like all these young athletes representing their countries we can get along and eventually love each other. However, I do not remember spotting any posters of the US blowing up Iran anywhere here and that fat orange traitor should not represent the majority of us American anymore than those nasty child raping Mullahs of Iran represent their people. Here our politicians are voted into power in not such a perfect system by any stretch of the imagination but in Iran the people do not get a say and they kill you if you protest or speak out. And, do not even ask how they treat their women. It is not good.

While I do completely, 100% agree with this statement.
America and France installed the Ayatollah and the Islamic regime.
Iran is exactly what the powers that be want it to be.

So Iranian people have no self determination?
Is that what you're saying? That nobody in Iran wants the Theocracy?
How do you conclude that?

So,
Kill several groups of people because the government, that they in no way control, manages to assassinate the God anointed king of America? Doesn't sound like a very "turn-the-other-cheek"ish Christian thing to do.

Biden was called Genocide Joe for just supporting an ally in a brutal war against Hamas. America "wiping Iran off the face of the earth" would clearly be genocide.
So now republicans are supporting America committing genocide? It's ok though because Trumpy was just kidding! (Unless he wasn't!).
Biden is not allowed to say stupid things ever (nor should he actually) while Trumpy says ten stupid things before breakfast. Because trumpy is just joking! (Unless he isn't).

#32 "Brutal War"? Hamas was the equivalent of an Indian war party that got lucky beyond their wildest dreams on October 7. Not a Peer Adversary.
What the IDF has done to Gaza,the destruction of all means of sustainable life, the openly sadistic massacres of medical and media people and civilians, the bombing of Universities and cultural sites, the Bloodthirsty rhetoric from all leaders of the Israeli State, amount to the deliberate destruction of the entire people of Palestine as a form of Collective Punishment.
Israel is not an Ally of Mine.
If I had any authority at all they would be Bombed until they stopped.
Not cut off from weapons and Cash....
BOMBED.

"Israel is not an Ally of Mine.
#34 | POSTED BY EFFETEPOSER" You have no allies. 1.5 million Moslems live in Israel so how would bombing them be any different than killing Moslems in Gaza? You make no sense so maybe you had better ask your Russian, Iranian or Chinese handlers on what to write next that might at least make sense? Last I checked all war was bad not just the one where Jews defend themselves you damn Jew hating traitor. GFY
