Time To Punish Iran's Ayatollah Regime For Its War On The World
Strategy Page ^ | 7 Feb 2024 | Austin Bay

Posted on 02/08/2024 1:32:15 PM PST by Rummyfan

Ayatollah Iran treats the world as a war zone.

Here's a list of regional battlegrounds: Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iraq, Israel, Syria, Lebanon, Persian Gulf Arab nations, Yemen and Jordan. On Jan. 28, a drone launched by an Iranian proxy militia operating in Iraq struck the U.S.-manned Tower 22 observation outpost in northeastern Jordan. The explosion killed three U.S. Army soldiers and injured at least three dozen more service members.

Yemen's Houthis, an Iranian proxy army, wage war on global shipping. Their attacks on commercial vessels in the Red Sea and Indian Ocean spike maritime insurance rates. That increases prices for everything, even food. Iran plays the same dirty game with oil prices when it threatens to close the Strait of Hormuz, which connects the oil-producing Persian Gulf to the Indian Ocean.

Venezuela's socialist dictatorship aligns with Tehran. For the past six months, Venezuela's Maduro regime has been threatening to attack neighboring Guyana. On Feb. 5, the AP reported the U.S. is "increasing its urgent military assistance to Guyana." In strategic terms, this means we face an Iranian proxy front in the Western Hemisphere. It's also an oil war with potential global economic consequences. Venezuela has around 400 billion barrels of oil; Guyana has a large field -- perfect targets for ayatollah meddling.

Gawd knows it is past time, but this administration will do nothing. In fact, quiet the opposite: it will support the Iranian regime.

Too late, Iran has a nuclear bomb, nobody will touch them....almost as if it were planned.

The war against the world is rooted in Mecca.

Yes, more wars in shitholes. Afghanistan and Iraq worked out wonderfully.

Iran is stronger because we took Saddam out.

How’s our border?
Economy?

Iran exports the vast majority of its oil through one terminal quite a distance offshore in the gulf. It would be a shame if that blew up in the middle of the night like that Russian gas pipeline Not a lot of people would be looking for that villain until after the Iran government fell.

I think the Iranians plan on shutting down both the Persian Gulf and the Red Sea. Because our stupid government waited so long and let Iran get so powerful and adept at missile technology. We couldn’t do it without a major war, so I probably will never happen. America is led by fools and criminals.

I’d love to see an asteroid or a nuke destroy both mecca and medina.

We don’t need another war we haven’t even paid the bill for the last few wars yet. Israel is always trying to sucker us into taking out their enemies.

He retired from the U.S. Army Reserve in 2003, but was recalled to active duty and served in Iraq in 2004

Well, come on all of you, big strong men
NWO needs Americans to die again
He’s got himself in a terrible jam
Way down yonder in Yemen, er , Eye-ran
So put down your phones and pick up a gun
We’re gonna have a whole lotta fun

We had Iran in a box, without war, and can again.

Shouldn’t Israel do it?

America is now shaping the global battlefield. We have to secure our foreign missions abroad, our business investments and our citizens - all stated targets of the Iranian government in a War from the US in response to their 1979 declaration of war on the US.

When I was in the Army, and then in the Department of State, it was well know that Iran had performed recon missions on our diplomatic missions/national interests and citizens abroad. To bomb Iran means we have to have in place sufficient resources all over the globe to prevent an American Bloodbath in every European, S. American and even Asian countries.

Iran is a terrorist cancer that has to cut out with surgical percision and speed while decapatating the host.
