COMMENTS??
 
Careful, don't wanna get caught using the wrong name in your e-mails. Big Brother loves to scam the world for certain words and names...Funny, her initials are the same as the Nazi Party, or?
 
I’ve heard this conspiracy theory about Obama giving them billions in cash. If you research it you will find that all he did was return their money that we had frozen when sanctions were applied. We didn’t pay them anything and if we didn’t return their money when sanctions were eased we would have been thieves. One smart thing he did was worked a deal to get hostages back before the release of the money. I have no love for Iran either, but I don’t believe in propagating half truth conspiracy theories either.

You got one correct, it would be great if you researched everything you believe.. Did you also research the rest of what Obama did for Iran?

The Obama administration secretly sought to give Iran access — albeit briefly — to the U.S. financial system by sidestepping sanctions kept in place after the 2015 nuclear deal, despite repeatedly telling Congress and the public it had no plans to do so.
 
Do I need to shave my beard now? Do I maybe look like the dead General? My wife thinks so....****.....gotta go and get to Hungary finally....maybe they will think that they only got one of his many doubles and come looking for me.....GP
 
Well you lot can continue with your pissing contest over who or whom is right but I see a clear and present danger so I'm going to analyse this fast moving situation and try to work out ways to mitigate against it.

Extra fuel reserves, extra food reserves, restrict family members from travelling into big diverse cities, monitor as much media as I can. etc
 
Hey Bill, I just downloaded an App, it pops up when anything new lands on the news landscape. Keeps me informed to the minute if anything big happens, earthquake, fires and the such. But, it is in German, maybe you can find a news App and check it out. GP
 
Iranians at 6PM UK time announce they are removing themselves from all deals pertaining to the enrichment of nuclear materials and will go all out to produce enriched uranium.
Any agreements pertaining to the enrichment of nuclear materials were a sham anyhow. They never had any intentions of allowing their nuclear weapons program to be constrained, now the whole world knows it.
 
Just re-checked about a third of my foodstuffs. Opened and sifted some flour from 2017, smooth and clean. Peanut butter from 2015, OK. Water stored since 2016 without any chems...OK. Noodles and spices from 2014, all dry and edible. Canned meat from 2015, the sandwich was great. Cooking oil from 2017, also OK.
Not one thing was bad from any foodstuff, even tho it was just stuffed and forgotten. Relocated a few things to make room for another load of dry goods. Flour, rice, beans, lintles, salt, sugar, baking powder, yeast, honey, dark chocolate and peanut butter. The price of gasoline just went up another 15 cents in 3 days tho. Live free, GP
 
Iran can saber rattle and boast all They want but they can't launch any kind of attack or response . The Iranian government knows well that if the USA hits Them hard their government and military will no longer exist . Not to mention how many of their People will take the opportunity to revolt if that happens . We will see but all I see Iran doing is cause a little fuss and ask to come back to the bargaining table .

Yes and no. There was no reason to give Iran the $150 billion. Yes, with a "B", or with 9 zeros at the end. And Obama gave it to them in foreign currency to avoid US laws which prevented him from doing the payoff. It ranks among the dumbest things that Obama did... and that's saying something. You imply we were 'stealing' their money... sorry.

when Obammy got around to his "end of office" "**** you I'm a lame duck" cash $$$$ to Iran backstabbing >>> the Bush administration's decision to remove Saddam's yellowcake nuke material before Obammy got ahold of it >>> DIDN'T LOOK STUPID IN THE LEAST BIT !!!!!

But it was their money. If we didn’t return it we would have been stealing it. There is no grey area on this. We confiscated their assets when sanctions were applied. When they made a deal and the sanctions were lifted we had to give them back their assets. Period. The US shouldn’t start becoming pirates and taking other countries things just because we don’t like them....

were you in the room when all this took place,,nope none of us were,,,,,Obama spent most of his time in office running down the USA,,,,,,who's to say who is correct you or urban,,,,,for me Obama was the worst president in modern times,,,I know in heart he sold this country down the river,,,I wouldn't piss on him if he was on fire

I will say one thing on this, I don’t like trump as a person, his morals or childish behaviors. I will make a distinction about his actions though. When he does something that’s sound or good, I will back it. I’m also the first to admit that obama did some stupid stuff too. This isn’t a partisan issue, just a look at a specific issue and making a judgement on it. I really don’t consider myself to be for or against either party. I’m mostly just against the stupidity from both sides and for common sense from either one.

then you should be against all politicians,,,,,they think they are smart but for the most part they are all in it for their own gain,and don't care to much about the people who elect them,,,,,most of them if their lips are moving they are lying ,,,,,

it is why I voted Trump,not for his charming personality that is for sure but because he was the one guy running who we all knew who and what he was,,,,,their would be no surprises with him

OK, let's look at things. First, Obama was the one to make the deal in 2015. Second, it's not binding. (see https://www.nationalreview.com/corner/iran-nuclear-deal-not-signed-document-not-binding/ ). So every aspect of giving the money to Iran was done with Obama in charge. This was just a convenient way for the first muslim president to do it. Do a little reading & let us know if your opinion changes.

I'm sorry that I can only give one thumbs-up to that post GG.

It sure seems like it. It's mighty rare for you to say you like something Trump has done. You've attributed his economy to Obama. When was the last time Trump did something that you posted your support? I'm asking, I don't recall. But I'll wager 80% of his actions are opposed by you Brent. Maybe 95%.
 
politics aside,it's smart Bill to be watching your six now, watching the news, not only those channels you like..
any one not realizing there are sleeper cells from Hezbollah in the west are just dreaming,they are here and I wouldn't bet
too much money that our intel. communities now them all.

asymmetric campaining is to be expected in the near future,though co-ordinating might be less effective without Soleimani, he was good at his job, can't deny that..
 
to lighten up the mood a bit.....

On RT (iirc) the other day they were reporting about abandoned concealled extremist training camp sites discovered in the Swedish / Finnish northern forests
