Current Events

The Kurds are not getting the weapons they need because they are sometimes distributed through Qatar. Also, they makes a stop in Baghdad where the Shia militia takes most of the good weapons. Isis has 1 billion dollars worth of American Humvees in their arsenal as well. They also have weapons that Hillary Clinton got send sent over the Syria. They were for the rebels but most of those go into the hands of Isis or al-Qaida(and their ally al-Nusra Front). Plus Turkey is helping them to some degree as well.

What do you people think about the Iran nuclear deal?

What a bunch of heartless -insert f here- uckers, why the hell are they supporting ISIS after their slow beheadings and dirty acts of war?

They hate the Kurds(plus there are Kurdish terrorists in Turkey) so they help Isis against the Kurds.

That is stupid, if only the hippies had staged a revolution back in the 20th century and conquered the world we wouldn't be having these problems.

Iran should have nuclear power plants for peace however they should be inspected by the United States to make sure they are not trying to make a nuke. The U.S. is under pressure from Israel to not let Iran have a nuclear weapon. If we bomb Iran's key nuclear power plants it would stop them from making a nuke for only a few years. Their economy has hardened from U.S. sanctions.

Maybe if we insert a puppet government through rigged elections? Thoughts?

Do they even have elections in Iran? I say you start a military coup by inserting Pro-American politicians into high ranking positions in the government.Once you have enough of them make your move. That may work in North Korea due to how corrupt its leaders are.

Iran should not be able to keep their nuclear infrastructure. In the deal, they are able to keep their nuclear infrastructure (including an enrichment facility). This deal also gives them a ton of money to finance terrorists and/or reinforce certain positions that would make it harder in the future for the US to attack(if needed). They can also deny UN inspection calls as part of the deal.

They have election but the 2 biggest parties are Islamic extremists. Plus, it is the supreme leader that has the power.

Maybe if we wipe the big extremist parties? Sounds a but harsh but so are extremists.

Wow, I did not know that.I should read about the deal before I comment about it .From what I'm hearing from you that is a bad deal, Inspections is a must. However, I still think Iran should have the choice to have nuclear power to provide electricity to homes,factories,schools etc. The only thing is these facilities must be inspected without Iran's permission to make sure they are used for good intentions.

I agree that if they have nuclear power plants, then they have to allow inspectors in whenever there needs to be an inspection. I would be fine with them having nuclear power plants if there are strict inspection schedules.

Hmm. I was hoping this thread would be more active....

Now Iran gets to have their own inspectors to inspect their nuclear facilities!!! Isn't that wonderful! All part of the deal eh?

Did you hear they are buying Russian gear capable of launching missiles?

I didn't know about that one, but it wouldnt surprise me. Russia has been supporting terrorists for years.

The US isn't so squeaky clean either.

My favourite book and which I've read 3 times is called The Company, which is about the story of the CIA from the 1950s to the 1990s. You should read it. Anyhow, during the Cuban crisis, the CIA planned the murder of Castro (though it failed) and obviously the Cuban commandos that went ashore. In the book, one of the main guys (everything is real to a bigger or smaller degree) says that they shouldn't be doing it. The DCI says that they have to use those methods to win the war against Communism. The junior officer (the main guy) says that they're fighting the war against Communism because Communism uses those brutal methods.

The US is a great country, but sometimes it gets its priorities wrong and does the wrong thing. To quote Churchill, "You can always count on the United States to to the right thing, after they've done everything else."

I'm really shocked that the United States would allow Iran to get so much for nothing at all. It looks good for Obama's legacy but its gonna cause problems in the future.
