Please you all have to know that the Israel, and the Christian West are in the crossfire in Sunni, Shi’a 1,365 year old war of mutual destruction. It was all over who was to succeeded Mohammad after his death June 8. 632 AD. The Sunni asserts the Abu Bakr rightfully succeeded Muhammad through election. The Shi’a Twelvers on the other hand say that Muhammad had designed his successor Ali ibn Abi Talib. The details are bloody with the Shi’a and Talib losing as martyrs. It is from this loss is where Shi’a use of martyrdom comes from.
Iran in the 20th century has been problematic because they have oil. Other countries need oil. People in charge of the government tend to make a lot of money. In 1925 they began to trend to a modern (western) society. Common people overlooked. Started in 1925, ended in about 1970. Their government now is a theocracy that rewards martyrs with heavenly gifts including; al-hur al-‘iyn. Leaders (mullahs) get rich….common people overlooked…
In, ya know, 600BCE Cyrus the Great ruled Persia now called Iran. He started a bunch of wars conquering many states nearby……he got rich…common people overlooked…
I believe Obama was a Democrat, right?, I mean he didn’t have orange hair. Remember when he shipped 1.7 Billion dollars is Cash to Iran, this was on pallets of Cash money to Iran. How much of this went to the Iranian people, none of it. It was used by the Republican Guard to fund terrorism.
Given the intellectual level of many of the posters here It needs to be clarified the Republican Guard is not affiliated in anyway with the US Republican party or Donald Trump.

I usually don’t respond positively to Ramirez, but I gotta say, DANG, that’s a beautifully drawn lamp and mushroom cloud.

That’s why Trump pulled out of the Iran treaty and the Open Skies treaty.

Only a matter of time. Remember those 40 virgins. Do women get a reciprocal amount when they are sacrificed?
