Many of those who oppose defense of the U.S.A. and Israel against Iran tend to agree with the social sympathies and activities of their predecessors.

China and Russia (two infidel countries) have separate ambitions, which are obviously not intended to serve Iran, but their own interests. Russia has so far displayed no enthusiasm to partner with Iran on its terms... China, too, has been courting Saudi Arabia.

No, the reason the deep state is waging war on Trump was to protect Obama’s deal with Iran and Russia. People keep forgetting that the deal with Iran included Russia because it conflicts with the myth of Trump collusion and the media reports accordingly.

That’s why the FBI wanted to f••• Flynn, then Trump. Flynn wrote Field of Flight about Iran.

Yea, they also promised NAFTA would increase the standard of living for the average Mexican worker, thus decreasing illegal immigration. They’d all be happy as a lark right at home...NOT!

This expression was PERFUNCTORY, at best.

And neither nation will take any real action in support of Iran.

The headline is sensational and not reflective of the political situation.

And the publication is no different than Jim Hoft’s Gateway Pundit. Simply CLICK BAIT.

The Libertarian response is the response of traitors, malcontents Anti-American Anti-Isreal and being 100% Neo pro Russian Communist support. the losertrarians like the Paleo Conservatives, have been in bed with Neo Communist Russia, since the mid 90’s they seek to spread disinformation and lies in order to help Russia, by sabotaging American political foreign and military policy to propel Russian influence in order for Russia too have global dominance and governance.

Once again I will intrate that America, is currently locked in and engaged in a dual Cold War against the dual Alliance of Neo Soviet Russia, and Communist Red China, their proxies and their proxies proxy as they all seek regional and global dominance/governance. The evidence for this continues to mount up day after day week after week month after month now is the time for America, too one more time unleash the mighty sword of our strength our power and our military might to stand up for freedom, liberty and our ole mighty God against the all enemies of that.

What you describe is the result of Russian government policies and tit for tat retaliation between Russia and the US over several years. And what percentage of Russians can afford to travel to the US, and how many does the government even allow to travel to the US.

It’s pretty naive to assume that the Russian people actually support the policies of their government, a government that increasingly cracks down on dissent and shuts down any news outlets or journalists that are critical of the the Putin regime.

And, of course, government is working on plans to deny Russian citizens ongoing access to the world wide web. What the Russian people really want for their nation cannot be easily determined with the circumstances that exist there now.

But there was still a pretty busy Russian anchor baby tourist business to south Florida the last I heard.

“” “” What you describe is the result of Russian government policies and tit for tat retaliation between Russia and the US over several years. And what percentage of Russians can afford to travel to the US, and how many does the government even allow to travel to the US.”” “”

There is no iron curtain and much more Russians than Americans are travelling abroad although numbers vary by year in the first case. For example in 2017 exactly 36% of all Russians traveled abroad for average two weeks mostly to Turkey, Belarus, Finland, Spain, Germany, Cuba, Vietnam and China.

Compare it to average just 5% Americans coming abroad every year and these are mostly short trips near-abroad to Mexico or Canada. Considering these statistics it is more like US and not Russia maintains the iron curtain to keep people in.

Currently Russia doesn’t have any legal procedures to keep its citizens in so I have no idea what you means by “how many does the government even allow to travel to the US”. It is the decision for traveler himself and US consular officers. Russian government has no say on it.

Of course, you are right that the purchase power of an average Russian folded about twice in the five years but if you would look into a statistics by credit card companies it has mostly affected their spending abroad but not the ability to travel. According to Visa their Russian card holders spent average $2730 during foreign trips in 2016 and only $1676 in 2018.

That is quite a dramatic decrease but latter is still more than enough to afford a travel to US because it is still higher than the average EU national spending in North America which is $1174.

Also US is obviously a cheaper destination comparing to Europe, hotel fees, restaurants and shopping considered.

“This is Deep State’s backdoor way to GET RID of Trump.

They’re desperate.”

Well, then, it’s bound to fail. Trump has a knack for f#$ing up their plans, and I’ll trust him to do it yet again.

My guess: Ain’t gonna be any war. Iran will have a civil war instead, and Russia and China will have to either find a different proxy, or play ball with Trump on his terms.

I'm reallllly praying you're right.

Then again, my heart soared during Operation Praying Mantis, yet during that perfect opportunity they didn't follow through, and behold the following 35 years.

Then, there was Neda's death during The Green Revolution, and they didn't apply the last pound of pressure required, and look again, though we both know why that didn't go off....

But I'm really hoping you're right because it would solve sooooooo much.

“Why would anyone believe the neocons in the US, who are nothing but the NWO puppets?”

So I guess Trump is a Neocon puppet of the NWO now. We knew that accusation was coming at some point.
Iran can get in bed with the Anti-Islamic infidels. All this does is drive up OPEC oil prices which makes our oil look more attractive. If OPEC wants to keep making money, they need to handle Iran themselves.

I’ve written to the WH about the prospects for fomenting civil unrest in Iran. I assume they know on their own how restive certain demographics are over there. I hope somebody with enough pull opts to exploit that.
