Among those victims was Awlaki’s 16-year-old son, also a U.S. citizen, killed two weeks after his father in what American officials call a mistake; they say they were targeting an Al Qaeda operative. I bring facts to counter your propaganda. Sent from my SM-G930F using Thailand Forum - Thaivisa mobile app Thanks, but well aware of the circumstance. You have not addressed the increase of drone strikes under trump, nor his suppression of reporting of drone strikes - got to say you would make a reasonable spin / deflection job with trump Administration. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway, if they don't like the Europeans doing it then they can always ask the Aussies. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my opinion, he needs it so he can save Israel from all the countries that oppose it, with the veto. If the UN moved elsewhere without the US on the security council, Israel would probably be a pariah state within a month, in my opinion.

Don't include me in that. The US is the only thing preventing a certain country taking over my part of the world, IMO. I want a US military with a huge budget, that Trump is pushing for. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have mixed feelings about this. Arming what would be mostly LIBERAL teachers puts conservative students in danger of being shot in anger by those LIBERAL teachers who suffer from TDS. 1 On 4/28/2019 at 6:22 AM, rooster59 said: On Twitter, Trump called the decision a defence of "American sovereignty." In reversing the U.S. position on the pact, he wrote, "We will never allow foreign bureaucrats to trample on your Second Amendment freedoms." This is why Donald J Trump is the Patriot President. On 4/28/2019 at 6:22 AM, rooster59 said: With Friday's announcement, Trump continued his drive to roll back Obama-era initiatives. Initiatives of a President who relished killing Americans, including an American Boy, is what he should do. Obviously, President Obama was a very sick man. On 4/28/2019 at 6:22 AM, rooster59 said: Friday's speech marked the third consecutive year Trump has spoken to the annual meeting of the NRA. Since his election, he has been a vocal proponent of gun rights, a position that plays well with his political base. Gun rights are paramount. Go Mr. Patriot President. On 4/28/2019 at 6:22 AM, rooster59 said: In May, 2018, Trump pulled the United States out of a 2015 international deal that eased sanctions on Iran in exchange for strict limits being placed on Iran's nuclear activities. The United States has since reimposed some sanctions that had been suspended under the deal. The same President Obama who murdered an American Boy in Yemen also gave millions to Iran. It boggles the mind. 2 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
