Baerboxer Posted January 9, 2020 Share Posted January 9, 2020 Why do Reuters insist on calling the IRGC "elite"? They are a bunch of religious fanatics who persecute, torture and murder their own citizens and have created a position of power for themselves as a paramilitary force within their country. Against professional opposition they've achieved diddly squat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Eric Loh Posted January 9, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted January 9, 2020 14 minutes ago, Baerboxer said: Probably because of left wing sympathies in media and state bureaucracy. It's highly fashionable to be seen to be politically correct in certain countries power centers. And that means turning a blind eye to anything those with "the correct political views" do. Trump, loose canon that he is, must horrify all the politically correct because of his bull-in-a-china-shop approach which is throwing the lid off things they'd preferred buried. In conclusion, no evidence and just right wing conspiracy theory. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How would you have dealt with an Iranian dubious commander being in another country organizing armed insurgents to attack your and allied personnel? How about bit of self reflection on how US destabilized the region and how about US intervention to help Shah dictatorial absolute rule over Iran and suppressed demand for democracy. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wwest5829 Posted January 9, 2020 Share Posted January 9, 2020 9 hours ago, thaibeachlovers said: Tell me if I'm wrong, but doesn't Trump have to sign off on any new law for it to become binding? However, I believe that if the numbers that vote for a bill are sufficient it does not require his assent. I do doubt that bar will be crossed though, which makes it look like just more point scoring to me. Your comments are not accurate by being too general in nature. Under US “checks and balances” between the Executive Branch and the Legislative Branch: only Congress can pass laws. Then the President can Veto (actual or pocket Veto). But the Congress can override the President’s Veto. Devil is in the details with many possible scenarios. This without bringing in the “checks and balances” dealing with the Judicial Branch of the US national government. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Waste the time of the people. She got her bottom soundly spanked by Mitch and still comes back for more. Amazing! All they ever do? Drunk already? the McConnell has so many bills from Congress sitting on his desk that it’s not funny.... mad Mitch needs to stop fiddling with other people’s bottoms and get on with business.... damn, he even brags about deliberately frustrating Congress.... what a bunch of useless incompetents... no wonder americans suffer under what is deemed to be a dodgy democracy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obama and Kerry will make a perfect team for such mission, experienced ????????. The Iran's government is short for their annual budget. Why do you think their missiles missed ? Because they really did not intend to damage anything since they can not even afford a "one month" war. They will break easily from inside by own people. https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/factcheck/fact-checking-trumps-address-on-the-iran-missile-attacks/ar-BBYKEcW?li=BBnb7Kz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because it takes a rational person to threaten not to leave Iraq unless the Iraqis pay for the infrastructure built by the USA. In effect, to declare the US an occupier. Or to threaten to give Syrian oil wells to Exxon. How more rational can someone get? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
