Two world leaders who are among Washington’s most outspoken critics met in Tehran at the weekend and discussed whether the United States is unbeatable. Also on their minds — the two candidates running for the White House.

“Some people think that America is invincible, while this notion is a big error,” Iranian supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei told Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro.

“Frequent mistakes made by Americans during the past 15 years have caused them to seriously run aground in the region and be hopeless now,” he added.

“Steadfastness and rational resistance combined with foresight in the face of pressures will certainly lead to victory,” Khamenei said, according to a transcript of his remarks on his official website. …

Correct - But it won't fall from foreign enemies. A Clinton presidency would end America as we know it.

America invincible? How idiotic. America already ceded herself to satan's minions when we made business of murdering the unborn, subsidizing black whores and their illegitimate children, celebrating bruce jenner's insanity, etc.

We were conquered a long time ago but were too ignorant to realize it.

"We are creating a new world, a balanced world. A new world order, a multipolar world," Chavez told reporters during a visit to Communist China, one of many. His "new world order" includes [RUSSIA], China, Iran,... and a significantly weakened United States, he explained.

How Russia arms America's southern neighbors

Ioan Grillo
May 9, 2014

RIO DE JANEIRO, Brazil -- Russia's push into Ukraine has put many on edge. But less known is that Russia is also strengthening its military links south of the Rio Grande and re-establishing itself as a power in the region.

Vladimir Putin has been strengthening military links here, and Russia is now the largest arms dealer to governments in Latin America, surpassing the United States.

Russia has even floated the possibility of building new military bases in Cuba, Venezuela and Nicaragua, and putting its warships permanently in the Caribbean.

In the midst of the Ukraine crisis, Russia's top diplomat Sergei Lavrov recently visited Cuba, Peru, Chile, and Nicaragua, where he announced that Russia would also pour money into the new Central American canal project. ..."

Russia Boosts Arms, Training for Leftist Latin Militaries

Moscow defense minister inks deals with Cuba, Venezuela, Nicaragua for joint exercises

BY: Bill Gertz
February 20, 2015

Russia agreed to provide military training for three leftist regimes in Latin America and increase military visits and exercises following a visit last week to the region by Moscow's Defense Minister Sergei Shoygu, Pentagon officials said.

Shoygu met with defense and military leaders in Cuba, Venezuela, and Nicaragua and signed several agreements on warship visits and military training during the visit, which ran from Feb. 11 to 14. It is not clear whether any new arms deals were completed during the visit.

Defense officials said the Russian leader is seeking bases in the region for strategic bomber flights that Shoygu recently promised would include flights over the Gulf of Mexico and Caribbean.

A lot of people DID disagree with these things; others hid their heads in ignorance and chose not to care.

The fault with the second set (who might be persuaded to change their minds) was, I believe, that of thinking the country was too august to err. Well no, it isn’t. Any more than it was too august to err in slavery hundreds of years ago. It has to be held to civilized standards on purpose, or it will fail to meet them.

Chavez Vows To 'Stand By Iran'
After Oil Talks In Tehran, Venezuelan Leader Called 'Brother' By Ahmedinejad

"Chavez pledged that his country would 'stay by Iran at any time and under any condition,' state television reported. Ahmadinejad said he saw in Chavez a kindred spirit." "'We do not have any limitation in cooperation,' Ahmadinejad was quoted as saying. 'Iran and Venezuela are next to each other and supporters of each other. Chavez is a source of a progressive and revolutionary current in South America and his stance in restricting imperialism is tangible.'":

So, we disagreed? Is that how we rationalized our cowardice? Like, a movie I once saw. A courtroom scene. A lawyer said, "I object." The judge overruled. The lawyer said, "No, I strongly object."

The fact is that the tens of millions of us Christians (true Christians or "clouds without water" [Jude 12], only God knows) have innocent blood on our hands. The feminist whores were protesting in the streets while we placated ourselves with being too civilized to make a fuss.
