The biggest mistake the US made in the Middle East was to allow them to nationalize the oil fields.

Right. It was better to allow the British to nationalize the Middle Eastern oil fields. WTF?

Iraqi Prime Minister Adel Abdul Mahdi pleaded with the mob against any aggression towards foreign embassies and representations in Baghdad, asking protesters outside the U.S. embassy to leave ‘immediately.’

...

Words mean nothing to them.

Only if Trump gets persuaded by his Israel-property SIL to jump in.

The CIA supported the British government in toppling the Mossadegh government in Iran back in the 1950s for that very reason.

You must be kidding.

The whole purpose of invading Iraq was to build a $2 billion embassy instead of a $200,000 embassy. That's why military contractors lobby the U.S. government to invade these sh!t-holes in the first place, isn't it?

Follow the money. Wonder who among the Delusional Leftists in or out of D.C. helped fund this? Love to see that come to light. Obama?

Too bad Iran doesn’t have to face Dorkbama the Muslim eunuch quota baby who would reply to any Iran threat with “So sorry, I’ll assume my normal bent over submissive position and you can have your way with me.”

“ I would advise these thugs that American embassies are now getting protection. The days of them being left to their own devices in the face of attacks are over. Beware.”

A nice box of killer drones sent to that area would go a long way. We need to be able to kill ‘em on the cheap and with little risk to US lives.

Think “varmint gun”.

Hold Iran responsible and B.Hussein for financing them.

That's what Trump's people should be talking about all over Twitter today.

...And Brennan works for Kissinger.

Brennan works for Mad Moe and his master in Hell. By the way Kissinger is 96 years old. I doubt he is busy doing anything more than staying alive.

The parent company of BP is why we have had this long conflict with Iran in the first place. And we have learned absolutely nothing from it. We are being played and it is costing us dearly.

Sorry, Should have scrolled down farther and I would have realized you are already on top of the historical facts that have lead up to ALL of this...

Take your time and read this VERY WELL. If you have any logical process you will see the associations in the bigger picture here. Including the recently debated Hakluyt & Company. Kissinger is at EVERY Bilderberg meeting every year. He is absolutely still in the “too big to fail” power and influence game...

One of the principles that makes any diplomacy possible is the protection of embassies and ambassadors.
Iran violated this principle during Carter and is doing so again.

Could be - Iran is already hurting from sanctions, but like all Dems/Leftists/nut jobs, they are too stupid to keep from poking at President Trump.
