(I encourage you to follow the link in this overview and take a look at the report. – LS)

I’m going to say more about the Iran deal in a piece that will go up shortly on the homepage, but I wanted to highlight this report, by Colonel (ret.) Richard Kemp and Major (ret.) Chris Driver-Williams, that comprehensively outlines Iran’s acts of war against the United States. Some lowlights:

Iranian military action, often working through proxies using terrorist tactics, has led to the deaths of well over a thousand American soldiers in Iraq and Afghanistan over the last decade and a half. Throughout the course of the Iraq campaign, a variety of weapons flowed into the country through direct purchases by the government of Iran. These included Explosively Formed Penetrators (EFPs), a shaped charge designed to penetrate armor. These weapons – often camouflaged as rocks – were identical to those employed by Hizbullah against Israeli forces. In 2006, the British Telegraph revealed that three Iranian factories were “mass producing” the roadside EFP bombs used to kill soldiers in Iraq . . . Iran paid Taliban fighters $1,000 for each U.S. soldier they killed in Afghanistan. The Sunday Times reported that a Taliban operative received $18,000 from an Iranian firm in Kabul as reward for an attack in 2010 that killed several Afghan government troops and destroyed an American armored vehicle.

The Obama administration’s nuclear agreement is nothing more than a stimulus package for jihad. Billions of dollars will flow into the world’s worst terror-exporting country — a sworn enemy of the United States — and it will soon enough even have (legal) access to international conventional-arms markets. It can continue to export terror and even kill American soldiers without breaching the nuclear agreement. Until Iran stops trying to kill Americans and stops imprisoning Americans (including Saeed Abedini, a pastor prosecuted merely because of his Christian faith), how can any rational person trust its good faith?

    LS – (hope you are doing fine) I have the very strong Impression
    that now is the time to sound the alarms in the USA (and everywhere else) : the BHO administration has just signed a deal with the present – day Hitlers in teheran, giving the nazi-rulers of Iran the ”Go” for nuclear weapons to attack Israel (as they have declared repeatedly). You know, LS , what happens to those who fight Israel – so for the sake of your (once great and blessed nation) –
    sound the alarms – disaster is about to strike the USA, terrible desaster..No more polite discussions on places like this – tell the people straight that disaster is on its way to the USA – tell them to
    avoid it by turning away from the present administration / removing it
    and by clearly supporting Israel and fighting terror-states and -organisations. If this does not happen now, the USA is for sure done, history…

      WG- Doing fine, thanks. Hope all is well with you and yours.

      Regarding alarms, the alarms are going off everywhere here in the States. Obama and his leftist enablers ( he has to have help since no one man can do so much damage in such a short time ) are attacking every thread in the fabric of this country, i.e. morals, values, finances, state sovereignty, religion (non Islamic), racist upheaval, turning the judicial system upside down, bringing police under attack, federal police force, income redistribution, denial of historic symbols he finds offending, divide and conquer, etc, etc, etc, ad nauseum.

      When an institution, belief, custom comes under attack by Obama and his leftist buddies, it takes time for the people to respond and build a coalition against his atrocities. Meanwhile, as the news cycle churns the issue under fire, Obama moves on to the next atrocity to keep everyone off balance. This has happened throughout his 2 terms and is reaching a crescendo as he approaches his exit from office.

      Look for the same in foreign affairs. A lot will happen in the remaining months of the Obama administration and on the world stage. Be prepared and most of all, be self reliant.

    I’m not going to get into a pissing contest with you Joop. I’ll be making my usual one or two posts to support this site today.

    Afterwards, I have to close books for 3 more businesses and do the financial reporting for a local fire department which will have a meeting and a need for financial statements in 2 days.

    Hopefully, someone else can step forward and address your concerns.

      It is not a pissing contest, a shame you see it in that way.

      I,am just asking for a opinion based on a reality as you see it .
