>> Prosperity? Nah.

Fire!”
Better hurry. Cannibalism is underrated.
Whom do they think is believing their drivel?
No, don’t answer that. It’s the masses of illiterate, inbred followers of the Pedophile Prophet around the world.
Good point bro, and I thought we had equipment, that could tell exactly where the missile came from.
“”We declare these claims as completely rejected and worthless,” foreign ministry spokesman Nasser Kanani said “
That’s not a no.
He’s not saying they didn’t do it. He’s saying “talk is cheap, use your fists.”
Limp wrists don’t use fists.
And that's because Biden won't respond. He and his obama-ilk need that Iranian money laundering.
Who to believe?
The Great Satan led by Puppet Biden CIA or the filthy Islamist Mullahs in Iran? They should both be destroyed. /spit
Islam and their proxy states are doing a commendable job helping the commerce of civilizations move freely around the globe. /S
