Qatar is in the pocket of Iran

I am only 48 and I remember watching the news from Beirut and it totally hit me hard even at the age of 12. Maybe because my whole family were vets of World War 2 and dads were in Vietnam.
But these dumb ass liberals don’t know history. Most couldn’t find Tehran on a map if it had a big red arrow pointing to it.

I think Iran did this to save face..they knew that our military bases would be heavily protected..so they can say “Well we got our retaliation”

I’ll wager there is a large defection of military in Iran right about now. Headed for the hills.

I’ll never look at him the same way again. He has lost me. He will now be celebrated by the anti-American, Trump-hating Left.

If they’re foolish enough to do it, we’ll mess them up so bad, they’re going to die.

Exactly what they wished upon us. Don’t do it.

“...Shouldn’t that be, “prey” coming from Pelosi?...”

The only “praying” their Dark Lord, the vile, demonic Botoxian, does is to their Big Daddy in hell. They’re all devil worshippers.

Tucker Carlson has a nasty streak of Libertarianism that makes him reason like Rand Paul at times clouds his judgment.

If I’m going to disagree with him it’s at those times generally.

This is going to be very messy, and could lead to very a dire outcome for anyone involved with it.

I think ole Tucker has gotten his last interview with the President.
