There's a new sheriff in town

And isn't that just the problem , we're living in the 21st Century now not the 18th.




And Muslims still think it's the 16th century.
That's a big problem too.

Honest to God...

The entire ME isn't worth a single American life.

We should not buy their oil and watch them head for the caves.

But, a ground war ?

No way

The Trump Administration is not kidding. There will be no "lines in the sand" that keep shifting. This is a line etched in stone, with skull/cross-bone signs stuck in the ground.


Where is ine etched in stone for Saudi Arabia?


If/when the time comes, see the Saudi Arabia thread.

The time came on the 11th of september 2001......

Iran has nothing to do with ISIS. This looks like a cheap ploy to start a fight we have no business fighting.


Ok then.

For a country that supposedly has nothing to do with ISIS.

Wonder why they are fighting proxy wars in a half dozen plus middle eastern states.

I have to agree. I feel this administration isn't going to back off or down from issues and events. I believe this will be a highly energetic administration. Once all the pieces are in place and the political gears began moving, we will start to see a very dominate and assertive type leadership. I suspect that it will actually set out to do what it means to do, no weakness.


Indeed! Trump + "Mad Dog" Mattis =

There have been reports the attack on that ship was intended to be on US not the Saudis.
Anyhow.
The should be put on notice.

Yeah it may not fund and train ISIS directly, but the proxy war with Saudi Arabia has created a very good exchange of weapons and funds for any number of organisations that support ISIS and as more of them join the overall ISIS effort, those funds and weapons end up being used directly by ISIS.

So..it might a well be the same thing as supporting them directly.

The Gov in Iran is not one of peace, and even it's own citizens will tell you that.

To be fair everyone paying attention knows Saudi is no ally.

They may play one on tv.

Oh boohoo, somebody held their ground against SA and now SA wants help slapping them. I say keep our noses out of it and see where it goes between the two. In a perfect alt universe, Iran would use the opportunity to figure out how to neuter the fundie conveyor belt we call Saudi Arabia and halt the flow of militant fundies int he ME.

Iran fired on a ship, intending to take out a US ship.
Obama made a deal with these people, saying it would bring peace.
Now they can build nukes - because of Obama.

Once again, Trump was right.
The Iranians are not to be trusted.

Those in glass houses should't throw stones , our bullets of peace and missiles of understanding have caused more problems in the Middle East than anything Iran has done.

The correct question is why is Saudi Arabia and Iran fighting another muslim civil war, and why has the US and Russia chosen sides.

I don't have the answer because I think the entire ME should go to hell.

It's already there.

No man.

Were gonna get SJW's to sue the president, and make open borders so they get to come here with no hassles.

No need to go there.

Sure isn't.

What it boils down to is the Wahabbists versus the 12ers.

Yeah, it'll mean more American troops going to fight Saudi battles. Since part of this was aimed at the Houthis, does this mean Trump's team will send in even more Americans to bail out the Saudis from their clusterfk in Yemen?
