    USA's President, on 2 different occasions on different days, has publicly promised the war crimes of destroying a specific destruction of religious and cultural targets and civilians in retaliation to any attack of any kind to the USA anywhere in the world.

    This is a "statement" which, if Trump has any credibility at all, means we go to war, whether Iran makes the attack, or that someone else may WANT to have a war between Iran and America and will do an attack on the guise of Iran. It doesn't matter, the consequences are now in the world of ANYONE who wishes the war.

    This President is not a statement of a rational man or leader. He is deranged.

    I agree Trump did not think this one through.

    Well if you read my posts you wouldn't be asking that question, but as one of Trump's flock you too seem to have not noticed we are being told to leave Iraq.

    Well once again you make false assertions. FYI, it is now up to Trump to see if he can get Iraq to change its policy.

    BTW, if you read the news today, we have suspended operations against isis and Al Qaeda because of the change in situation in Iraq.

    I remember when Trump supporters were bragging how Trump wiped out ISIS.

    Oh, I see.. Continue to allow leaders of a sovereign nation to kill US soldiers and US citizens while also creating chaos across the middle east. Got it and sound logic!

    Why do you ask and In what way? Politically no. While the Iranian regime is not resoundingly popular the people are more in tune with their leaders than Iraq under saddam. Militarily and economically Iran is much more formidable.

    What are our troops doing there? Do you even ask yourself that? We are not wanted by the people in that area of the world. They don't want us there. We are the ones getting our soldiers killed. They are not coming here and killing them. We invite these idiots to come here and attack our men on duty by occupying their countries and telling them how to live and how to sell their resources. Is the Mideast better now after almost 20 years of non stop political machinations by the US?

    We invade a country. destroy it. Kill 800,000 people and then place 20,000 soldiers in that country and don't expect them to be attacked, because some puppet government says they can stay.

    You make friends with people by being friendly

    Does that mean Iraqi migrants living in the US will be told to leave?

    I've stated multiple times that we need to pull out of the middle east and let them take care of their own business as they do a much better job killing themselves than anyone. The only caveat would be that we would also no longer leash Israel as they would now need to make sure of their own security. They would make short work of most of the issued nations in that region.

    Propaganda works, but then after awhile, it don't. Just like the MSM.

    Removing any Iranian or Iraqi from US soil is a reasonable precaution to ensure national security.

    An attack on a US embassy is an attack on US sovereign territory, no different than attacking Schenectady.

    Isn't that a question for Bush?
