Trump does not look like the “give your lunch money to the bully” type, as we are discovering with the NORKs. He’s more of a “I’ll meet you on the playground” type. This is a good thing.

Not a good thing. Working out a better solution is a good thing. This is not a playground; it's possibly our lives.

Why don’t you put on a dress and swish around for us? It is very much a good thing to be the one who doesn’t get the lunch money taken away.

If the bully comes up and demands your lunch money, “working out a solution” isn’t in the cards. That is essentially what we are facing in the world. Unreasonable demands that do NOTHING for us.

You don’t meet people like that in the middle.

I’m fully aware of that. I choose not to live in fear of what “might” happen, and let the chips fall where they may.

People in this country are too afraid of losing their “comfort” (as John Adams put it) and don’t realize that some things are worth fighting for, understanding that they may get their nose blodied, they may die. Their loved ones may die.

“Give me liberty or give me death.” is not just a slogan. It also clearly implies knowledge of the risk involved.

i.e. I did not make that post lightly. I know EXACTLY what it implies. It is also what I meant.

It is only possibly our lives if Iran gets Nuclear weapons and a delivery system that can get to the U.S. Mainland. Only then is it a matter of our lives.

That is what Trump is trying to prevent.

This entire scenario like so many others, is caused by too many diplomats concerned about short term costs VS. long term costs. When Iran had an open revolution against the Islamic Tyrants, Obama did less than nothing to aid that revolution. He did worse, he supported the regime of the Ayatollah while simultaneously aiding the destruction of our Allies’ regime in Egypt.

Now Trump is left with an Iran deal that is completely one sided and not only gave tens of billions of dollars in direct money to Iran, it gave them carte blanche on getting nuclear technology for their phony civil nuclear program. A program that makes zero sense since Iran has vast amounts of nonnuclear energy that is so abundant they could never need a nuclear power plant. We can't even get nuclear plants to be cost effective here.
