I have been walking around with a deep sadness today

I just can't shake it. As the child of a refugee and an immigrant myself, I have suffered first hand what war does to both the people fighting it and their families. We never should have gotten to this point. What the **** is wrong with the god damn republicans? As a citizen I apologize to the world. Most of us would love to sit at the table with you and bask in both our diversity and yet sameness.

We all long for shelter, to be clothed, nourishment , education, health care and most of all, community.

To my sisters and brothers in Iran, I do not support trump, in fact I abohor what he is doing. It weighs heavily that I am a citizen of a nation that will commit war crimes and crimes against humanity.

If word salad Harris was doing the same in Iran you would be cheering. Sit down and STFU.

A child of refugees who fled murderous oppression should understand that Trump is trying to take down Iran's "civilization"-of-oppression and free Iran's people. This grandson of refugees - my Dad's parents were Volga Germans who fled Russia before the Revolution - gets it. They did well in the US, no whining from me on that angle.

Unlike gopiscrap, I'm not self-blinded by Trump-Hatred. Had LIEden or OhBummer! done this instead of placating the Mullahcrats, trying to buy peace, and thereby giving them time to develop nuclear weapons*, I would give them credit for doing something very right.

BTW, in 2008-2009, there was a popular uprising in Iran. OhBummer! could have supported them, but instead betrayed them. Could the Mullahcrats have been deposed? Who knows, but OhBummer! did not even try.

* Remember when Israel hacked Iran's centrifuge network in 2009, causing them to spin out of control and self-destruct? Might that have set back Iran's timing enough that Iran didn't make nuclear weapons during LIEden's MalAdministration? :shrug: Or forced Israel to act preemptively against Iran without the support of LIEden's Israel-hating minions?

gopiscrap is deeply sad because Trump is succeeding and is working with Israel. And that Israel is unlikely to face a nuclear threat from Iran in many years, if ever.

Trump has terminated a threat to world peace by doing what he's done. The mullahs have sponsored terrorism and want to destroy Israel and the USA . so go rot in your sadness! :loser: :sosad: :sosad: :sosad: :bird:

Oh no!  What did Trump do?  Bomb an aspirin factory?  Bomb a wedding killing damn near everyone in attendance??

What has happened?  I've been out of the news cycle a little bit.

Your "brothers" like the protestors and dissidents who have been executed by the Iranian regime over the last couple of weeks under very questionable charges, trials and confessions?  Your "brothers" who are celebrating the deaths of dictators?  Don't get me started on how your "sisters" have been treated under the ayatollahs over the last almost 50 years. 

Y'all are just outraged by what your string pullers tell you to be outraged at.  Y'all only know the parts of the stories you are told, and only believe the parts that you are told to believe.

What the **** is wrong with the god damn republicans?

What the **** is wrong with the democrats? Please explain why the Iranian people are thankful for Trump's actions.  Do you have more insight than the Iranians? You're not just a traitor, you're stupid.

The Democrats treat Trump and the non-democrats almost as bad as the democrats treated Lincoln.

I love how they tell people if they don't have a uterus they get no vote in the abortion debates.  If you're not trans you get no vote in the removal of dicks or the addition of dicks.  Etc.

But they damn sure don't have a problem weighing in on a foreign war, or attacking millionaire/billionaire folks.  They only had one person that was actually monied and they ran his ass off!

Just remember that DU-folks' and other Dems' reactions are rooted in Trump Hatred. Had OhBummer! or LIEden done this they'd have been over the Moon with praise.

Had LIEden actually been mentally capable of doing this I would have been gobsmacked!   :o

Pretty sure they would be on the top floor at least for a little while.

I wonder if the new poll on the two parties' net favorability has anything to do with the profound sadness.

Pop quiz: Who has killed more Iranians this year? US/Israel or Iran?

(Hint: Iran by tens of thousands.)

I have been walking around with a deep sadness today...

Just the thought of this DUmp'Rat - ANY DUmp'Rat, actually - shuffling thru life with a serious case of the sads is enough to get me light headed with all the blood flowing into my schadenboner.

And this is how you know DU is full of shit when they suggest that the Iranians would have treated a captured US pilot. If they’ll execute their own citizens, I’d hate to see what they’d do to their enemies.
