Didn't some other Muslim country's President in that area promise that to the U.S., a few years back?

Remind me, how did that work out for him?

Of course the war-mongering politicians will exempt their children from being forcibly drafted should that end up happening...

How’d that work out for HIM? Hell, how’d that work out for US?

4500 American troops are dead in Iraq. That’s how it eventually worked out years later. There’s your answer.

What you need to do is tell us what they died for, because I can’t come up with any good reasons. You can’t either as a matter of fact.

And if we invade Iran, we’ll take a worst ass kicking than we did in Iraq.

Stick your chest back in. You’d BETTER listen to Rouhani and quit letting Trump and Netanyahu gas your head up.

Hard to believe anyone is fool enough to celebrate the U.S. invasion of Iraq.

Is it too soon to call it a quagmire?

Maybe this is a common expression in that part of the world?

Ronald Reagan's first order of business should have been wiping Tehran off the map.

No country should be allowed to hold US embassy employees as hostages with no retaliation.

The challenge was made in 1990 not 2002.

It’s just for internal politics. These inbred Muslim savages love a braggadocio.

Nonsense.

In less than a year, our embassy in Beirut was attacked, killing a bunch of Americans...then the Marine Barracks in Beirut was attacked killing hundreds of Marines.

Reagan didn’t do SQUAT!
