NSA Flynn Puts Iran On Notice

[A Theist]

Just watched this on the news as Sean Spicer was giving a news briefing and taking questions from reporters. NSA chief, General Mike Flynn, addressed reporters and said that the administration was officially putting Iran on notice...

President Donald Trump's national security adviser says the administration is putting Iran "on notice" after it tested a ballistic missile.
Michael Flynn told reporters Wednesday that the Trump administration "condemns such actions by Iran that undermine security, prosperity and stability throughout and beyond the Middle East that puts American lives at risk."
He says "Iran is now feeling emboldened," criticizing the Obama administration for failing "to respond adequately."

evidently, Flynn will be giving more details at 4 est...

Yeah, it ain't Obama that's causing friction between Iran and the US. He was trying to fix the problem. The republicans apparently want war with Iran over something.

Part of the deal is we were supposed to give Iran their money back, but apparently the republican controlled Senate decided that wasn't a good idea. So why should Iran uphold its end of the bargain?

I grab my popcorn then. This won't be Iraq nor will it be Afghanistan. This will be the total and utter insurgence of Shia which pretty much fought the right side over the last 15 years. And good luck finding allies for that. Apart from Israel every other nation will sit back and watch.

It's also taking another piss on the grave of Justice Jackson. But it's not as if any of the current Republicans care about that.

Israel is egging the US on to attack Iran because they think hope that Trump will do their dirty work.

It was noted the test launch failed during re-entry.

Hmmm . . .

TV satellites don't need to re-enter, neither do resource and/or navigation payloads.

Something that does:

Shithead didn't make much of a secret over it. At least the deal is dead. One of the more remarkable achievements of the Obama administration. If I were to lead Iran, I would go for nukes right now. This very moment. It's a kind of life insurance, as North Korea shows.

testing a re-entry vehicle is serious

And more power to them. Go for the nuclear life insurance I'd say. Otherwise it's another unnecessary and costly war on the horizon. Even more so since Russia already has a base there and won't sit by while Dump is wetting himself over another invasion.

I don't really care if Iran builds a nuke or not. There's only ever been one country to launch a nuke before, and it's us. Despite many countries having them. So why are we the ones scared of other countries having nukes, instead of the other way around?
