Graham: Iran has to 'knock this s--- off'

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) dialed up his rhetoric on Iran after a U.S. drone was shot down by the country, warning that a military response is "where we're headed if nothing changes."

Graham made the comments to reporters on Thursday ahead of a briefing on the downed drone, adding that Iran needs to "knock this sh-t off."

U.S. Central Command (Centcom) said Thursday that an Iranian surface-to-air missile system shot down the drone in international airspace over the Strait of Hormuz in an "unprovoked attack." It also denied Iranian claims that the drone was over Hormozgan Province in southern Iran.

Graham also said that he told President Trump to tell Iran "all bets are off" if uranium enrichment continues.

7. What do people even expect at this point?

Our country has systemically bullied Iran to the point where Iran almost has no option but to fight back, and it's all to appease Saudi Arabia and Israel. I don't even blame Iran for wanting nukes, it's the only way to stop our country from continuing to bully them. I mean it worked for North Korea. They got nukes and suddenly they join the global 'big boys club' and we can no longer do anything about them.

8. Now let's get something straight.

When the two Tankers were hit,the European Press claimed it was the indirect cause of Yemen so called Rebels shooting down a Drone and one rocket hit a tanker after missing the Drone. Second story claimed a Iranian SAM Missal Battery launched two,one hitting a Drone and the other missing only hitting a Tanker. Believe the area where is all went down is heavily Mined .

9. "so called Rebels" ?

I don't think they are "so called" rebels but actually rebels, they ARE trying to over throw the elected govt with the help of Iran.

10. Used the Media term"so called"

when in fact the Saudi's are trying their friggin best to exterminate this Tribe. Believe the Ethic Nature of Iran is Persian and they are a separate entity from other Arab Cultures and as well as Language. My Boyhood Friend was tasked to that region for most of his Governmental Career,40 plus years,because he was fluent in the Iranian language as well as the regional dialects. Sorry,do not know what the Language common name is at the moment.
