“America can’t do a damn thing against us,” Ayatollah Khomeini bragged while holding our hostages.
The Carter administration had undermined the Shah’s government in favor of the Islamists who seized power and then prevented the embassy’s Marine guards from defending the facility and the people inside against the Muslim ‘student’ groups who claimed to be coming in peace.
The “peaceful” student activists took over our embassy and held our people hostage.
Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei taunted President Trump with the same slogan in June after being asked to give up Iran’s nuclear weapons program. “Our response to the US nonsense is clear: they cannot do a damn thing in this matter,” he echoed his regime’s founder.’
Carter’s failure to defend Americans had turned Khomeini’s taunt into a confident slogan.
America couldn’t stop its diplomats and soldiers from being taken hostage and paraded through the streets. In subsequent decades, future administrations couldn’t stop other Americans from being taken hostage again, tortured and executed. By the end of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, Iranian IEDs alone had accounted for as many as 1,000 American victims.
Qassem Soleimani, Iran’s IRGC terror mastermind, had thought that America couldn’t do a damn thing. In January 2020, President Trump taught him otherwise with a Reaper drone.
It was the first time in a long time that America had done a “damn thing” about Iran.
In 1983, Iranian backed terrorists set off truck bombs in Beirut that killed 220 US Marines and 21 other servicemembers. Mohsen Rafiqdoost, Khomeini’s bodyguard who helped found Iran’s IRGC terror force, boasted that, “both the TNT and the ideology, which in one blast sent to hell 400 officers, NCOs, and soldiers at the Marines headquarters, were provided by Iran.”
Beyond a few airstrikes, America didn’t do a “damn thing” because the intelligence proving Iran was behind the attack was suppressed so that it never reached Reagan. Eventually we placed multimillion dollar rewards on the heads of Hezbollah’s Ibrahim Aqil and Fuad Shukr who continued to live without a care in the world until Israel took them out after Oct 7.
The Biden administration assured the media that it had nothing to do with the Israeli strikes.
Over the decade, Iran’s Hezbollah proxies took dozens of American hostages. Some were released after months or years in exchange for concessions, while others were killed.
In 1984, Hezbollah kidnapped, tortured and killed CIA Station Chief William Francis Buckley whose identity they learned from classified documents seized from the embassy in Tehran. Buckley was transferred to Iran and tortured there, before being returned to Lebanon. Videos distributed by Iran’s Jihadistsshowed him in agony. “Buckley was close to a gibbering wretch. His words were often incoherent; he slobbered and drooled and, most unnerving of all, he would suddenly scream in terror, his eyes rolling helplessly and his body shaking.”
America once again did not do a “damn thing”.
In 1985, Hezbollah hijacked TWA Flight 847. One of the terrorists was Imad Mughniyeh who had also interrogated Buckley. Navy diver Robert Stethem was beaten and kicked to death before his body was dumped on the tarmac.
“They were jumping in the air and landing full force on his body. He must have had all his ribs broken,” Uli Derickson, the stewardess, described. “I was sitting only 15 feet away. I couldn’t listen to it. I put my fingers in my ears. I will never forget. I could still hear. They put the mike up to his face so his screams could be heard by the outside world.”
Instead of sending a message and holding Iran and its terrorists accountable, the United States made a deal to have Israel free hundreds of Jihadists.
In 1988, Hezbollah kidnapped Colonel William R. Higgins andtortured him for months. An autopsy found that he had been starved, the skin on his face had been partially removed along with his tongue and he had also been castrated. Finally his body was dumped near a mosque.
“I am one of a small handful of Americans who knows the exact manner of Rich’s death. If I were to describe it to you now – which I will not – I can guarantee that a significant number of people in this room would become physically ill,” a friend of Higgins stated.
Finally, decades later, in the last days of the Bush administration, the CIA teamed up with Israel to take out Mughniyah with a car bomb. America had finally done a “damn thing”.
But Iran continues to hold American hostages today like former FBI agent Robert Levinson.
In 1996, Shiite terrorists backed by Iran bombed the Khobar Towers killing 19 American servicemembers, but Iran was also pursuing other options including a new Sunni terror group.
Al Qaeda built a relationship with Iran. The 9/11 Commission noted, “Iran facilitated the transit of al Qaeda members into and out of Afghanistan before 9/11” (with the aid of Soleimani, later taken out by Trump) and “Al Qaeda members received advice and training from Hezbollah.”
After 9/11, some Taliban leaders relocated to Iran to fight America. By 2010, Iran was paying $1,000 for each American soldier killed and Iranian IEDs were claiming American lives.
After losing in Afghanistan, Al Qaeda relocated much of its operations to Iran.
Abdullah Ahmed Abdullah, Al Qaeda’s second-in-command, responsible for the bombings of American embassies across Africa, was taken out in Tehran in a joint Israeli-American operation during the first term of the Trump administration.
Saif al-Adel, the current leader of Al Qaeda, lives in Tehran and has been there for two decades. Even while supposedly in Iranian custody, he ordered the 2003 bombings in Saudi Arabia that killed 9 Americans.
As recently as last year, Iran and its terrorist proxies continued murdering American soldiers and contractors including Scott Patrick Dubis in 2023 and Sgt. William Rivers, Specialist Kennedy Sanders, and Specialist Breonna Moffett in 2024.
No matter how much politicians and social media influencers may insist that we’re not at war with Iran, the Islamic terrorist state has been at war with us for 46 years. And is still fighting us.
It only takes one side to have a war. Fighting back isn’t what makes the war endless.
Refusing to fight back or to fight back effectively is what makes wars endless.
The Carter, Reagan, Bush, Clinton and Bush administrations for the most part failed to act. The Obama and Biden administrations took it one step further by aiding Iran. President Trump first stood up to Iran and showed the Islamic terrorist state that there would be consequences.
“America can’t do a damn thing against us,” the ayatollahs mocked us as they killed our people.
For the first time in two generations, the smirks have been wiped off their murderous faces.
Those complaining that President Trump is too tough on Iran aren’t upset because the president isn’t keeping his campaign promises, but because he is, they’re not upset because he changed his foreign policy, but because they want the old Carter and Obama appeasement of Iran back.
America is not contemplating bombing some “random middle eastern country.” After 46 years of kidnapping, terrorism, torture and murder, we’re fighting back against Iran’s war on us.
1. Obama authorized a NATO-led intervention in Libya, which resulted in the fall of Muammar Gaddafi’s regime. Barack Obama’s administration participated in the regime change in Libya, which led to the end of the rule of Muammar al-Qaddafi.
2. Trump – Threatening to bomb Iran’s nuke facilities, not regime change or full scale war.
3. JKF – Threatened to bomb Cuba / Russia.
4. Ronald Reagan ordered the invasion of Grenada in 1983.
5. President George H.W. Bush ordered the invasion of Panama, which began on December 20, 1989.
6. President Truman authorized atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki resulted in the deaths of approximately 150,000 to 246,000 people by the end of 1945
7. Biden was heavily incolved with, and financed the Ukraine war.
I think the article by Daniel ; was about Iran.
Nothing like the world concentrating on Iran… when…
CBN Reports 6-18-25:
“Lakurawa Islamists massacre over two-hundred villagers, including slitting the throats of children and burning others to death.”
Also saying…
“Christians are being slaughtered in a gruesome manner in Nigeria’s middle belt where Christians predominate, and unfortunately, nothing is happening (to protect them).”
“We’re still finding bodies in the bushes,” he added. “The death toll is rising every hour.”
…
islam is satanic…
What Islamists are doing to African Christians is certainly satanic. It’s just a continuation of what Arab slave traders did for years to Africans, by force-marching them, sometimes for months, to wherever the best markets were and not caring if half of them died on the way. Whether murder or slavery is the worse option depends on one’s preference, but neither sounds particularly appealing to most people.
So is this what you do everyday? Is this your job?….living on a comment board spouting your fake Christian dogma hiding behind your endless pro-Muslim endtimes B.S. Not much of a life…aye?
Good history, thanks Daniel !!!!!!!
Yes and those Israelis are doing a good job, too. I think they’ve taken out over a thousand Iranian terrorists already. Something like that. The guys who reported it on the TV News were more than a bit surprised. You could tell they were thinking “that’s a lot of dead guys.”
Eat it, mullah monkeys Something like 600 Israeli jets have flown over Iran with impunity and blown lots of shit up in the last few days. It’s been what, six days since the spanking began? You can practically hear them crying like babies. “Wanh.”
It’s about time. 46 years was 46 too many.
President Trump sez he may join the fray. He can’t do it too soon in my opinion. Level Tehran. Half the population has already fled in anticipation of bombs and missiles dropping. The ones still there must want to die. And Trumpy sez he won’t signal an attack, he’ll just do it if he wants to without any forewarning.
I love that guy..
The guy does have a history of blowing away Islamic terrorists. (is there any other kind?) I don’t think it’s a good idea to piss him off. When he makes up his mind, he doesn’t change it.
The main Tehran police station was attacked by the public today. I think the average Iranians are fed up. And the mullahs monkeys keep talking shit. They’ve gone through three heads of “security” in the last 72 hours. Not exactly something to brag about.
Thank you Daniel. I remember 1983 specifically and shocked that we didn’t do enough to go after the terrorists. So Israel finally did. Right now Israel is doing all of the battle as if they are doing it for us too, and they are! I’m glad Trump agreed to it. If all we do is support Israel, then good. The amount of bloodshed by Iran went on too long. Now, is the time to say no more!! I wasn’t sure I’d see this day. God bless Israel and pray for the peace of Jerusalem.
Every word of this.
Even a Front Page writer is commenting on Prof Dan’s article….it is a blow by blow (pun intended) of what Iran has gotten away with impunity on direct attacks to USA yet USA failed to retaliate. Why? Deep state again?
For all the weakness imposed on the USA since 2001 by warmongers, cultural nihilists, foreign corruption of American business, academic, and political decision makers, and government employees bent on growing their influence regardless of the cost to the republic, the USA could still bankrupt Iran in less than a year by embargoing all exports from that benighted land and making peace with Russia – separating it from China. At the same time, dialing down trade with China as we use emergency measures to onshore vital production and making high quality coal and petroleum imports to China all but impossible will make China unable to continue its support of the mullahs in Iran. No ground forces or open combat required. And let the chips fall where they may in the multicultural land mass called Iran.
I still have faith that Trump will bomb Iranian nuke sites into oblivion!
“The Carter, Reagan, Bush, Clinton and Bush administrations for the most part failed to act. The Obama and Biden administrations took it one step further by aiding Iran.”
Let’s all raise our Stars & Stripes in celebration of their accomplishments… <<< Not…
it's really sad…
Another America bashing comment from our resident pro Muslim carnival barker. What am I supposed to do with this trip down memory lane, Mohammed? What does this accomplish? You are what is sad and useless.
Is this what you do everyday? Is this your job?….living on a comment board spouting your fake Christian dogma hiding behind your endless pro-Muslim endtimes B.S. Great life you have carved out for yourself?
No time better than the present to finally get this done.
We have many American families of those who have been captured, tortured and died because of Iran. As a nation and people, fighting back to WIN against this arrogant evil is the very least we can do to honor them.
Seeing all of these attacks chronologically outlined and then described in detail should further our national resolve to obliterate everything required in incinerating this Islamic despot as well as rendering his home-grown followers permanently impotent to destroy anyone at any time in any place, anywhere.
Payment for their unbridled evil is egregiously overdue; it’s time for THE reckoning of this malignant ayatollah and all those following him to find their rightful places in the dust bin of history.
Let freedom ring!!
It’s time for those mullahs to be terminally humiliated. Make Iran free again.
An excellent article, Mr. Greenfield. Most people today either don’t remember what you have described or weren’t even alive at the time. The stories of the horrific torture and murder of CIA Station Chief William Francis Buckley, Colonel William R. Higgins, Navy diver Robert Stethem, the Marines at the barracks in Beirut, those killed in the Khobar Towers bombing, our soldiers and Marines killed / maimed by IEDs, etc. were not told to the American people by the ENEMEDIA.
Very little was mentioned as to how these men actually died. It is good for you to remind the American people just who – and what – Israel, and by extension the U.S., is up against with these bassturds. Thank you.
I remember all that crap. I was in high school at the time. I especially remember Navy Diver Robert Stethem being thrown off that plane dead. It really pissed me off. And I DO remember what the stewardesses said about his murder. They were horrified and rightly so.
I’ve seen people die up close and I didn’t like it. I felt like I should’ve saved them, or something. It made me feel like a failure.
I think Chuck Norris made a movie back in the day about killing those terrorists. He killed A LOT of them in that movie. One of those Golan Globus ones, I think. It was real fun to watch. He even had a rocket launcher on his Enduro motorcycle. I think he blew up a whole airliner full of terrorists with it. I don’t know, it’s been a long time.
All those Americans tortured and murdered by the Republican “Guard” were real people who had real lives and families. So were the Iranian victims. That’s why I cheer on Israel and pray that President Trump picks up that 46 years old bill and pays it in blood.
1. Saudi Arabia seeks regime change in Iran.
2. US/Usrael, EU,, Arab neighbors seek (not always admmitedly in public) disarmed nuclear Iran, especially Israel which has been threatened with annihilation by Islamic fascist Republic.
3. Phony-anti-war pro-war Tucker Carlson prefers nuclear Iran, emboldening head of terror snake.
4. All of the above does not mean there is a need (now) for ‘foot on the ground,’ in today’s drone age.
5. The vast contrast of Islamic Republic (just like Palestinian regimes) targeting civilians VS Israeli warning for civilians to evacuate while operating against hostile targets, is as clear as ever.
6. A side note, the wild Islamic Republic has also aimed at city in the Dan area whose most citizens refuse to serve in IDF, as most are ultra-orthodox.
Thomas W. From West Coast, USA.
Saudi Arabia has really picked up its game since Trump was President the first time. It doesn’t sponsor international terrorism anymore and has absolute contempt for the mullahs in Iran.
And I saw the videos of Trump and Melania there and those Saudis not only admired them but feted them with all their best moves and accoutrements. The complete opposite of Alzheimer Joe, who they treated with all the contempt he’s owed. The name “Biden” is reviled and ridiculed worldwide. That idiot thinks he’s a Kennedy or Lincoln. That’s how stupid he is.
Barback Hussein Osama was humiliated in his ass kissing visit to that country too, along with his bestial “wife., Big Mike.
Trump is the man.
Daniel is right.
If Bush had nuked Tehran Islamabad and Mecca after 9/11 the world would be better today.
It’s too late now.
It’s never too late.
Yes, Mr Greenfield, the Iran regime is nasty. They are not our allies. Buts what’s interesting is before WWII the US had good relations with most, if not all, of the ME countries. It was only after Israel was created and became a country did the US inherit Israel’s enemies.
Israel decided to preemptively strike Iran based on the lie of the past 35-40 yrs, that Iran was weeks away from a bomb. Israel and the corrupt media flooded the airwaves with this propaganda. Bibi has been crying Iran is within a year, months, weeks of a bomb since early 90’s! It was a lie. If that were true Israel would have attacked Iran decades ago.
There is a difference between actually having the uranium capacity to build a bomb and being uncooperative. Yes, Iran is uncooperative, but no they aren’t close to nuclear capability.
Bibi “There is no question Sadaam Hussan is seeking and close to developing nuclear weapons.” Remember that lie? But sure let’s just blindly trust Israel and Bibi.
Maybe Bibi wants this war to distract from his looming corruption trial. BTW, National Security Director Gabbard and the IAEA stated “no credible evidence of undeclared Iranian nuclear program.”
The was Dave Smith humiliated Dougie Murray was the way Tucker humiliated Ted Cruz yesterday.
Further, Daniel, my commentary has nothing to do with “The Jews” that so many people use to shut down debate. This has to do with Israeli govt and Bibi. For the life of me I don’t know why people can’t have a rational discussion without being called a Jew hater.
Thank you Daniel for your columns even though I might disagree here and there
Do you sit at home plotting evil shit or are you just a psycho who masturbates to kiddie porn? Just commit suicide already.
Whack whack. Have a heart attack.
Disgusted to read your comment. How do you think you’re contributing to the other well-thought-out comments with your trash type?
I hope the admins will delete.
Thank you. All his posts are laced with profanity and vile comments. How he’s allowed to continue is beyond me.
But thank you for recognizing this. Too many other actually encourage this vile behavior.
Brother Jeff adds perspective and takes no prisoners. Frankly, If I had an online or published periodical, I would hire Jeff for his stream of consciousness prose – Jeff says out loud in print what many of us think but don’t write – No, I do not have most of the thoughts of Jeff but somehow I get a kick and not offended over mi heffy’s comments
The only thing vile is your stench. I can smell you over the World Wide Web. Did you shit your pants again?
Take a shower if you can afford one, you degenerate low-life.
I hope God deletes you from life. Or an Iranian terrorist does That would be poetic. “Olly Akbar,” off with your head!.
I hope you die from terminal diarrhea. Clutching your toilet like a life raft while you shit all over yourself.
So, in other words, the resident idiot can’t refute anything I stated.
Day off from beating your black wife? Go have another drink, but don’t drive you already have a DUI record.
See, this proves Jeff’s comment – and perhaps your mental level – your comment is truly racist
Jeff’s comment was doo-wop on the stoops
Brother Jeff takes no prisoners? Behind the comfort of his computer? Lol oh ok.
He adds perspective.? He makes zero sense. He can’t articulate a reasoned argument to back his narrative so he resorts to nothing more than profanity laced posts. I guess to a child that might be impressive. As the above poster commented he brings zero contribution to the forum.
If you disagree with me on anything I wrote then by all means tell me where, specifically, you think I’m wrong, and it should be done so with respect to each other
But, Jeff can’t refute anything I stated. So, he has no choice but to respond with childish insults . For example, Bibi stating Iran is months or weeks away from a nuclear bomb has been going on since the 1980’s. Lol. He’s on video time after time and year after year fear mongering and lying.
Jeff, nor yourself, can’t refute it. So, instead because you’re Israel first and not America first you get mad.
Yea, the truth hurts. Jeff swearing profanity and you amusement of it doesn’t bother me one bit. In fact, I encourage it because normal and sane people get to see it. So, I don’t even want him censored.
Further, nothing I said was racist . Jeff’s wife is black and he was arrested for domestic violence. That’s not from me, but from a FPM poster who looked him up. Lol.
Does Jeff beating women bring perspective to you as well?
Yeah, he hates black chicks because he can’t score any. If he pulled his pants down they would laugh at him.
The main thing wrong with Sebastard is that he was born.
And refuting nonsense is a waste of time.
The claim that Bibi Netanyahu has been claiming Iran is a month away from developing a nuclear weapon is straight from the Minitrue fake news media. Those idiots have been days away from nukes for decades. The only thing that’s stopped them is their incontinence and incompetence. I’m sure Sebastard shares that infliction.
Only glory hole gobblers repeat that stupid shit.
Meanwhile, Bibi is bombing the shit out of those Irantards and Sebastard is crying.
Ya gotta dance faster than that you little sh*t.
Picture of a liar and an abject Jew Hater sucking up to the owner of this site:
“Gee Mr. Greenfield. you’re the best and I’m sorry I said all of those bad things about Jews. I meant American Jews. I love the Jews. I love de Jews. It’s those damn Israelis that I hate. Especially that BiBi guy.
Oh wait, I mean Bibi’s great. Go Israel!!!. I sure do hate those Palestinians! Even though I am a Muslim. I’m a peaceful Muslim. See? Go America. Go Dodgers!
Smooch! Smooch! Smooch! Please like me Danny. Please Please Please!”
OK Sebby, you are a fraud. Do your cheap gay Las Vegas act.
Sebastian out………………..of his mind.
One thing I’ve noticed about you and your idiot besty. It seems to be very important to both of you that your desperate musings be refuted. That seems to be a common complaint from Muslims. How do you refute lies and stupidity?
“Jeff can’t refute anything I stated. So, he has no choice but to respond with childish insults . ”
You mean like the childish “gay” insults you constantly spew. No one is going to refute your idiocy. What a waste of time that would be. And you should stop explaining yourself. It just makes you look smaller than you already are. Like the goody two shoes 5th grader bringing apples to teachers.
Everything you stated was stupid dogshit. I wouldn’t even piss on it. My toilet deserves it more than you and it’s insentient.
You don’t know anything about me, moron. And I don’t have “A” girlfriend but I do have nine or ten black girlfriends and one Latin one. How many boyfriends do you have? the guy you pay at glory holes doesn’t count.
Damn are you stupid. Did you think I was going to give you a free pass? Nobody can match my insults. Especially not a wee willy like you. Go hump a knothole, you homo homunculus. Make sure it’s a tiny one or your tiny dick won’t fit. I hope a bee stings it off.
He’s too stupid to plot anything.
Yes, he’s probably going to be the next failed mass shooter we see on TV while we sip cold ones. I bet he shoots himself in his dick, although he’ll need a sniper rifle to hit a target that tiny.
He’s an obvious lunatic.
It was Jimmy Carter, Democrat, Georgia, who pushed the shah of Iran out of power. We all know what happened: The U.S. embassy takeover, the bungled rescue attempt, the ascent of the Ayatollah Khomeini and radical Islam. It was Ronald Reagan, Republican, California, who secured the unconditional release of the embassy hostages, even before he took the oath of office. Iran is now the leading sponsor of terrorism worldwide, all thanks to Jimmy Carter, Democrat, Georgia.
“Maybe Bibi wants this war to distract from his looming corruption trial.”
Is this perhaps anything like the kangaroo-court trials Donald Trump was forced to sit through? Israel has its own leftist problems, just like we here in the U.S. You might want to remember that.
Ya gotta dance faster than that you little sh*t.

All TRUTH! Every. Single. Word.
The World is still dealing with Carter’s 1979.
The Shah was overthrown. The Soviet’s invaded Afghanistan. The Democratic Party, the Communist Party USA, and the Soviet KGB conspired to take over Central America and install Sandinista Daniel Ortega, who is still in power and who arrests all political opponents. Sound familiar? The spread of Communism all over Latin America aided by Democrats and CPUSA operatives acting as college students only there to foment Revolution and install Communists. Once in power, it’s near impossible to remove them.
Carter’s Peace Center was taken over by Communists who then promoted Communism. Carter would be an international observer to witness elections, and even with rampant fraud, he gave his stamp of approval for far-left Dictators which then silenced any dissent!
IRAN’S OIL BLACKMAIL. “No one can do a damn thing against us because we’ll shut off the pumps and the world, like they did during the oil embargo, and they’ll eventually come begging on their knees for us to start pumping again… so we can set the world on fire with our matches and gasoline and just LAUGH OUR ASSES OFF! HAHAHAHAHA! HAHAHAHAHAHA!”
China doesn’t care that there are oil sanctions on Iran.
Reports are that three Chinese planes filed false flight plans that instead were going to Iran. Khomeini made a statement that the World would be “surprised and the world will be talking about it for centuries.” DID CHINA SEND THEM NUKES to then display to the world and say that Iran built them all along which would then end all U.S. and Israeli actions and leave Iran, and its oil, in the hands of China and Russia? Even fake nukes would end everything. BUT…. what if China gave them to Iran so they could use them on Little Satan and the Big Satan? The downfall of both would be in the long-term best interests of China and Russia. We would then turn Iran into a GREEN BLOB (I grew up in Socorro, NM, twenty miles from Trinity Site. There are melted sand, now green blobs all over the area. Turn Iran Green which would be visible from Space like our White Sands?) or not retaliate in fear of causing a World War fought with nukes?
THANKS CARTER! THANKS OBAMA AND BIDEN!
Those Chinese planes could be a big story.
I won’t fly on one.
Boing sucks, too. They’ve owed the White House new Airforce Ones for what? 20 or 30 years now?
It’s embarrassing that Euro companies make better planes than America. And American airline companies ALL SUCK. Even Mexico’s is better. MUCH better, and Mexico sucks except for its museum in Mexico City. It’s airline company is good though, and offers unlimited drinks like all foreign ones do but no American ones do. I ain’t paying fifteen or twenty bucks for a drop of vodka.
KLM is the best airline I’ve ever flown on. Even the food was excellent. You’d be lucky to get a tiny bag of stale peanuts for a “meal” on an American airline. And half the stewardesses are gay guys. “Not that there’s anything wrong with that.”
British Airways and Singapore Air are also quite good. And the Indonesian airlines are good and all the stewardesses are hot and bring you food and comfort any time you ask. Me anyway, but then I’ve always been extraordinarily handsome. 😛
Thank you for this history. There are too many people on X who are supposedly on the right, who are practically siding with Iran. They are either too young to remember any of the terror that Iran perpetrated on the US, dishonest, or just plain ignorant. They are siding with evil. They are showing their true colors. Many of them claiming to be Christians, but are antisemitic . It’s very disturbing! I’m a Christian and I will always stand with Israel and the Jewish people!
“America can’t do a damn thing against us”.
Not easily, and when we are done, we will be accused of genocide. But it may come to that unless you all settle down and act like human beings.
Jimmy Carter…..glad he is dust…this all started with him.
Actually, it appears the 46-years says a lot about the values and insights of America’s elected representatives than a sovereign nation’s interest in survival.
If “death to America” isn’t a declaration of war, I don’t know what is. America has put up with this for way too long.
If “death to America” isn’t a declaration of war, I don’t know what is. We have put up with this stuff for way too long.
I recall Carter in helping the Shah and really letting Iran fall. Not that the Shah was a sweetheart or Iran would not have fallen.
Prof Dan’s article is a blow by blow (pun intended) of what Iran has gotten away with impunity on direct attacks to USA yet USA failed to retaliate. Why? Deep state again? Past POTUSs were told hands off Iran by globalist influenced CIA?
All one has to do is reference Genesis 16:12 And he will be a wild man; his hand will be against every man, and every man’s hand against him; and he shall dwell in the presence of all his brethren.
What this is saying, it’s in the DNA (I can muse, I wish Abraham did not listen to his wife Sara but kept his eyes on YHVH. Then being human, I can understand why.)
Then there is this video I came across where this preacher is going to Greek to explain izzylam:
We have to realize that the race and culture of izzylam is death and oppression for total authoritarian control. Same thing the demoncraps want.
We cannot genocide Cain’s seed, but we can sure take away their military power as well as their nuclear power!
We don’t genocide the people, but those who committed cold blooded murder, torture, rape, should be executed!
“Prof Dan’s article is a blow by blow (pun intended) of what Iran has gotten away with impunity on direct attacks to USA yet USA failed to retaliate. Why?” Altruism is why.
US policy on Iran has been consistently altruistic.
You should contact Bosch Fawstin and he’ll expand.
Glad to finally see a piece about Iran’s ongoing war against the U.S. One administration after another has pretended that Iran is not our enemy; two administrations, Obama’s and Biden’s, seemed to aid and abet them. Finally we have a President who gets it — that “Death to America” actually means “Death to America”. And finally someone has written about Iran’s long war against us. Thanks for the historical background; those of us who remember it all from our nightly TV news broadcasts, daily newspapers, and weekly news magazines are becoming fewer and fewer, and many younger Americans have not learned anything about recent American history. I hope that your piece has filled them in on the origins of this ugly one-sided conflict.
Maybe it’s time to accept Iran’s invitation to the dance. With Iran providing the music and us knowing the steps so well, Fordow would be a good place to begin.
Qassem Soleimani was given an Islamic funeral by the Trump administration in 2020.
What Israel has achieved against Iran is after Trump has hindered them.
Trump, for the most part, has continued the bipartisan appeasement of Iran.
Right wing islamophobic fanatical bullshit.! May you all rot in hell along with FrontPage news.
Leve’ Palestina!
May you enjoy your whisky, bacon and cartoons of Muhammad, Madam.
Why not go to Palestine and announce you’re gay?
Islam is such a religion of peace, you’ll be perfectly safe….
Go suck a camel dick, you islamopithecine homo.
Ahmed, shame on you for using this infidel internet, invented by the sons of pigs and monkeys 😁
He probably takes it up the ass from pigs and monkeys.
