President Obama made a desperate and terrible deal with Iran - Gave them 150 Billion Dollars plus I.8 Billion Dollars in CASH! Iran was in big trouble and he bailed them out. Gave them a free path to Nuclear Weapons, and SOON. Instead of saying thank you, Iran yelled.....
....Death to America. I terminated deal, which was not even ratified by Congress, and imposed strong sanctions. They are a much weakened nation today than at the beginning of my Presidency, when they were causing major problems throughout the Middle East. Now they are Bust!....

....On Monday they shot down an unmanned drone flying in International Waters. We were cocked & loaded to retaliate last night on 3 different sights when I asked, how many will die. 150 people, sir, was the answer from a General. 10 minutes before the strike I stopped it, not....
....proportionate to shooting down an unmanned drone. I am in no hurry, our Military is rebuilt, new, and ready to go, by far the best in the world. Sanctions are biting & more added last night. Iran can NEVER have Nuclear Weapons, not against the USA, and not against the WORLD!

(23,108 posts)The truth is not in him and not anywhere even close to him. If his orange assmouth or his teeny tiny orange fingers are moving - he's always lying. I'd bet big money the drone was either on the border or inside Iran. Also, we know damn well who's calling the shots in this administration, especially when it comes to foreign policy - it's drumpfs' puppet master not the orange demented tool.

(1,376 posts)So the obvious question - did he not understand that when radar and air defense artillery sites are attacked from the air, the soldiers who man those sites (not "sights"; god, what a moron) are going to be attacked along with the radars and missile launchers?
If so, why didn't he ask the same question before the operation was underway? If not, is it because he is uniformed? If so, who is it (hint: national security advisor) who is supposed to "inform" him of these realities?
Either way, he simply exposes his inability to do this job effectively - or any other, for that matter.

(7,772 posts)Military probably proposed a much more limited mission that would have been proportionate, or none at all.
It was a drone, after all (albeit a good, church going, family man drone from the best family).
