WINNING! Just The Idea of Re-Imposed Trump Sanctions Has Iran's Economy Crashing!

[easyt65]

I don't know if US sanctions against Iran will do anything this time.

Our allies won't be on board and we don't trade with Iran. So what are the sanction supposed to do?

I don't know if US sanctions against Iran will do anything this time.

Their exchange rate suggests they are doing something.

So what are the sanction supposed to do?

Punish the mullahs.

For what? Keeping a treaty?

Treaty? We had a treaty with Iran?

I wonder when that was. Not in my lifetime

trea·ty
ˈtrēdē/
noun

1. a formally concluded and ratified agreement between countries.
   synonyms: agreement, settlement, pact, deal, entente, concordat, accord, protocol, convention, contract, covenant, bargain, pledge;

What is the Iran nuclear deal?

Gee, I don't know what else to say?

....'TREATY'....which Obama did not have the Constitutional authority to make on his own...

 

[easyt65]

....but back yo the thread topic.....

Pending sanctions causing Iran's economy to go in the toilet....nice....

Is this what snowflakes have become, apologetic and full of misguided empathy for enemies of this country who seek our destruction? Barry betrayed the US by giving Iran BILLIONS to advance their nuclear weapons program. I personally am happy to see those billions evaporate in an economic collapse so they have less to spend on our plotted destruction.

Yawn, guy... when you sign up to fight the mean old Iranians, I'll take you seriously.

You know, instead of having some poor minority kid do it for scholarships that never happen.

Hey asshole, I am a veteran of 30 years (& multiple wars) who 're-upped' as a civilian.

You?

Is this what America has become? Wishing for awful suffering. We really do need reconsider this Empire-Building Agenda. We have no right to impose 'Regime Change.' All Empires fall.

not sure your point.

My point is, let's end this Empire-Building. We shouldn't be running around the world demanding Regime Change, and starting war after war. It's not what our country is supposed to be about. Our Founding Fathers warned us about Empire-building. They knew very well that all Empires fall. They defeated one to create a new nation. Our country needs to become about Free/Fair Trade and Peace with all nations. We need to stop meddling in other nations' affairs. It's time to change course.

 

[Dschrute3]

Let's stop this Empire-Building. Let's dramatically scale back our presence in the Middle East especially. We need to adopt a disengagement policy over there. It's time.

Here's what you people don't understand........

Those scumbags are at War with us. Period. They have been for over 1,400 years.

And they won't stop until they have conquered us.

If you let them.

We have civilized huge chunks of Islam but the majority are still conquering, murdering, enslaving scumbags.

I suggest to you that you all study their history just a little bit. They ain't dickin' around. They're serious as dogs fucking. The really do want to conquer and enslave the whole world.

That you don't understand that speaks volumes to your ignorance

Guess you didn't read about Henry 8, disembowelling etc?
We haven't got any history genius.
How many defenseless countries have we bombed? 80?
What atotallyuneducated pantywaists country we are.
Ugly Americans to the ROW.
Loud, stupid bullies

Sadly, we are now seen as a destructive bully by many in the world. We've been on a horrific bombing and invasion spree ever since WWII. When is enough enough? Now we're demanding Regime Change again and itching to start another war with another nation. I don't like what we've become. We need to end this Empire-Building Agenda.

Incorrect.

America must defend her people, borders and interests at any cost. Americans for America first; not Americans sacrificing their own safety to benefit the rest of the world. Liberally bleed your heart on foreign soil if you can't handle that.

I certainly agree with you on securing our Borders and defending our People. But we aren't about that at this point. We're about Empire now. If it were about securing our Borders and defending our People, the Borders would have been secured a long time ago. These days, we're running around the world demanding Regime Change and starting war after war.

Sadly, we've become the world's most brutal bully. We've been bombing and invading almost non-stop since WWII. Our Founding Fathers warned against Empire-building. We're supposed be about Free/Fair Trade and Peace with all nations. This Empire-Building needs end. All Empires fall.

We do it out there, over the horizon of our borders, so that we never must do it here: in our backyards, our streets, our schools. Us or them; the ancient catch 22.

We are the most benevolent World Power in Human History. People that don't understand that are just simply pee-pants dimocrap morons ignorant of History. And everything else in life.

You are children demanding perfection where it doesn't, and can't, exist.

Compare us to the Romans, the Greeks, the Persians, the Brist and most of all -- Muslims.

We destroyed the British Empire in WWII. That was one of the conditions we put on Britain. They asked us for help and we agreed with the caveat that they would tear down their Empire.

And they have. It no longer exists.

The US has freed BILLIONS of people from the yoke of murdering communists, we fought and died in 2 World Wars that had nothing whatsoever to do with us, we have fought to stop the spread of the most murderous, the most disgusting political and economic theory in human history (socialism) while asking nothing in return.

To those of you who want to bad-mouth the US for our generosity and willingness to defend those incapable of defending themselves --
Eat Shit And DIE, motherfuckers.

Why do we need to be so feminist about an enemy states suffering? The point is to win after all. And in order to do so your enemy has to suffer. We can’t snowflake and safe space our way through a war. You win wars by kicking the other guys ass so hard he can’t survive and his family can’t either.

More Americans need to ask, why is Iran an enemy? It goes back many years to the CIA overthrowing their Democratically-Elected leader, and installing a brutal Dictator Puppet. It ultimately led to the Islamic Revolution.

And now, we're itching to meddle in Iran again. Yet most Amerians wonder why they hate us. When does all this Regime Change meddling end? It's not what our country is supposed to be about. We're now seen as a brutal bully by many in the world. Let's stop all the meddling and war. Let's go a different route for a change.

Regime change is not the goal. The administration has made that clear. Pay attention.

Regime Change is the goal. Has been for many years. And we wonder why countries like Iran hate us. Would Americans be ok with other nations forcing Regime Change on the US? It's a terrible Empire bully policy. It's not what our country is supposed to be about.

The postmodernist adherent has no gratitude for the historically unprecedented individual rights and freedoms they take advantage of daily in Western Civilization.

securing the border isn't the only thing we need to do, we need to also keep nuclear war heads out of our country. How you gonna do that when they are built in these countries we're in? I'm all eyes to read how you stop it.

Suffering like that caused by Iran's sponsoring of terrorism ?

The biggest supporters of Islamic Terrorism in the world are 'Allies' like Saudi Arabia and Pakistan. They've been funding Sunni Muslim Terrorism for many years. For instance, ISIS received most of its funding and weapons from 'Allies' Saudi Arabia and Turkey. Iran is a Shiite Muslim nation. It doesn't support Sunni Terror Orgs like ISIS and Al Qaeda. In fact, it played a major role in exterminating ISIS in Syria.

Shiites make up a only a small percentage of total Muslims in the world. So Iran can't be a big force in terms of Global Islamic Terrorism. The only possible known Shiite 'Terror Org' in the world, is Hezbollah. And most in Lebanon don't consider it a Terror Org. It's a legitimate part of the Government. So in terms of Islamic Terrorism, Iran isn't nearly the threat Sunni Islamic Terrorism is. Saudi Wahhabism is still being practiced by many Islamic nations. Iran poses virtually no threat, as far as Global Terrorism goes. That's the reality.

Like i said, i'm 100% with you on securing our Borders and defending our People. But it's pretty clear our leaders don't care about that. Our Borders are still wide open. All these wars are just about Empire-Building. They don't make our nation safer in any way. In fact, they likely make our nation much more unsafe. With our Borders still wide open, anything can happen. All Empires fall. We need to change course.

Maybe at one time we were about that. But that time has passed. We're rightfully seen as a brutal bully by many in the world. We're now everywhere wreaking havoc. It's very sad. Americans need to realize that all Empires fall. We're already $22 Trillion in Debt and spread too thin around the world. Folks need to read up some on the fall of the Roman Empire. We should learn from its demise. We should end this Empire-Building.

The Roman Empire lasted 2,000 years. Until it was conquered by (if you guessed 'Muslims' you get a prize)

Besides, making broad, sweeping statements like, "We're wreaking havoc everywhere" is intellectual cowardice, fundamentally lazy and infantile all at the same time.

Start a thread on one area where we're doing more harm than good and we can debate it.

Making sophomoric statements like you are is really boring
