Hannity last night: We need to invade Iran because they won't give up their nuclear program. Hannity last June: Iran's "nuclear ambitions" are "officially dead" after Trump "obliterated" their nuclear sites. www.mediamatters.org/sean-hannity ...

This if true, is GOOD news.

Aggressive War is BAD. Standing down and refusing to fight for the "Chosen" on Demand can only be a good thing.

If the Squatters in Palestine want to fight Iran they can do it Alone.

Of Course they Won't... they need Assistance with their Wars of Choice.

They are too Small and too ------ to Prevail Alone..The 12 Day War proved that.

And Iran will sit there and absorb a "limited military strike?"

"Gee, thanks for only kicking in my balls and breaking my arm, but not gouging out my eyes, so I'll just kick your shins twice."

Iran will consider any attack, even limited, as an existential threat and respond overwhelmingly. That could possibly mean two aircraft carriers at the bottom of the sea.

Go read the history of the Shia. Anyone remotely involved would have to look over their collective shoulders for the next 200 years.

What kind of deal/contract/treaty would be considered valid if signed under duress?

Sign or we attack?

If you haven't noticed, PEDO DONNIE aka Corporal Bone Spurs thinks threats equal negotiation. He love him some "Alphonse" Capone. In other words, he's 100 percent not qualified to be president of his own fan club (membership less than zero).

Allow me to ask a simple question ...

What is Pres Trump's long-term goal for his interaction with Iran?

Anyone?

Whatever Netanyahu Wants.

Iran must prostrate itself before the Greatness that is Trump,Netanyahu.

Then commit collective Suicide in Tribute to their Overwhelming Mercy.

If they Do they will be Rewarded in Heaven by God Almighty Himself.

Trump pinky Swears.

Honest.
