What do you expect? These are the same types who screwed up Vietnam, Iraq, and couldn't defeat the ISIS caliphate and numerous other military engagements.

This is the type of brash, ill-advised, act many feared from Trump.
He runs this country like a dictator. It has to stop.

So, capture him.
Try him for war crimes in a UN court.

It's called doing the right thing.

Now 56 bonus points. Expected to go higher.

Seems to happen regularly at Islamic religious events and soccer matches. Must be some sort of connection.

Maybe God isn’t a soccer fan.

As a constituent of Merkley I can affirm that he is a small town flak that has never had an original thought - ever.

Hey....I'm just throwing it out there, ya know?
Trying to get you knuckle draggers to think outside the box.

For once, you might want to try something unpredictable.
Give mankind some sort of evidence that you've evolved
beyond cave dwelling.

Too much to ask for, I know.

Time to live fire the new technology.



Wasn't too long ago the PA Dems were crying out for a military response to Iranian shenanigans. Well, the time is here, and now you want to tuck tail and hide. If you don't think they're easy pickings, think about how long it took us to get rid of Saddam's regime. The Iranians tried it for 8 unsuccessful years.



Bring it on I say. They've been asking for "Death to America and the Great Satin" since 1979. And while we're at it, strap Pelosi, Sanders, Warren and the squad to a few cruise missiles.

Get rid a a rogue regime hell bent on the destruction of you and I, and life as we know it. They make no secret of this desire. If you're okay with that there are quicker ways to go.
