The article does not mention that the Iranian government early in WWII began to position their country as an ally of Germany. The Brits, Americans, and Russians invaded to secure the Southern supply lines so that American logistics could still reach the Russians. The invasion took about two weeks and was launched from Iraq.
I don't accept the basis of this article at all. "Persians" are not a problem. Islam is. So the Persians fought the greeks 2000 years ago.. so what? Great powers fight each other over time.
I don’t accept your premise that Islam is the problem. The problem is the Salifist/Wahabist/Khumeinist sects of Isal.
So they invaded Europe in the 5th Century BC. That does not constitute a 2500 year war. The Romans and Byzantines only fought them in Asia. The Macedonians, Mongols and Arabs conquered them. The Brits and Russians invaded Iran numerous times. Today our firepower versus them is like a million to one in our favor if we factor in nukes. They are not a dire threat. If they start anything; just wipe them out. No sweat.
OK, fair enough.

I agree with you. If Iran wasn’t Islamo-fascist, I rather doubt Iran would be our enemy.
Was it not Islam under the guise of Persia then and today Islam under the guise of, as you post...” the Salifist/Wahabist/Khumeinist sects”...
Seems to be Islam no matter what.
I also disagree... its 2497 years since the invasion of Darius in 490 BC , Thermopylae 480 BC .... to the present day, but discounts the period of the Shah when Iran was OUR guys in the mideast and a powerful ally.
Islamofascism and Wahabiism is the real enemy not Persians. We should show a friendly face to the people of Iran and isolate and weaken the Mullahs.
And God Himself will destroy them.
***The invasion took about two weeks and was launched from Iraq.***
It should also be noted that Iraq supported the Nazis by bombing British air fields in Jerusalem.
They'll keep digging until they find something older than the Sumerian civilization ~ but my guess is they can't do it.
Why Thermopolae and not Marathon?
Bump for later reading, interesting title.

Our First order of business must be to demand and achieve from the Congress Legislation that requires all persons involved in reporting or publishing the news report all sources of income for their selves and their direct family members.. That is not a violation of the First Amendment as it does not prevent them from publishing anything. We just need to know and have a right to know who is buying these “main stream” media whores.
Get that done and watch the house of cards that is the Left ad the Islamofacists fall..
They will fight tooth and nail as corrupting our Press is America’s Achilles heel.. Our Founding Fathers were honest men and it is difficult for honest men to see the devices of the wicked.
The Boat Deal the Cheap House the “Hot Stock tip” the “Options” and “great investment advisor”
The truth will come out, Somewhere sometime the right fellow or women will not be for sale no matter how hard you try to control who has access to your gravy train.
The truth will come out and in time we will lay out your crooked game for all to see.

Addendum..The same should be made public for all Media Corporations who their advertisers are as well as their investors.

That’s a really scary idea.
